Tip
titleNewer version available

New version available as of 5 March 2018. See current document node - 0.1.3 release plan.


Goals:

Create the Node Application Layer and support for metrics collection

Done when:

  • Node Application layer is in place
  • The node can perform some basic operations pertaining to Node management
  • Bootstrap node (master node) collects metrics about nodes in the network
  • Users can download a debian package & rpm package in addition to the Docker image.
  • Release a tar.gz and zip file for the source code
  • Version #0.2

In more detail:

  • Node Application layer
    • The node api returns communication statuses when asked to do so
    • Supports JSON API
    • Documentation for JSON API
  • Basic Node management operations:
    • Metrics collectable using Prometheus
    • Metrics for a locally running node displayable using local Grafana instance
    • Documentation for how to access and display these local metrics
      • Document starting and stopping local metrics production via the JSON API
      • HOW-TO for standing up an aggregator and visualizer for viewing one node's metric data
  • Stretch goal: centralized metrics aggregation:
    • Metrics aggregated up to a central location (on rchain.me domain, probably)
    • Nodes either push automatically to a known place or they register themselves as available for scraping
  • Integration tests are in place for any dependencies.
  • Release includes:
    • Docker image
    • Debian package and installer guide
    • RPM package and installer guide
    • tar.gz
    • .zip file
    • Stretch goal- tarball with runnable script and all JAVA dependencies, but not JVM 
      • Note: if this doesn't fall out of work with sbt magic then we won't do it

Out of Scope:

  • Integration with the interpreter
  • Any functionality pertaining to blockchain, incl. history in the storage layer
  • Cryptography library
  • System processes in the storage layer
  • Foreign function interface
