dnet
A simple tui to explore darkfi p2p network topology. Displays:
- Active p2p nodes
- Outgoing, incoming, manual and seed sessions
- Each associated connection and recent messages.
dnet is based on the design-pattern Model, View, Controller. We create
a logical seperation between the underlying data structure or Model;
the ui rendering aspect which is the View; and the Controller or game
engine that makes everything run.
Run
Using a venv
Depending on your setup you may need to install a virtual environment for Python. Do so as follows:
% python -m venv python-venv
Then install the requirements:
% python-venv/bin/pip install -r requirements.txt
Run dnet:
% python-venv/bin/python main.py
Without a venv
If you don't require a venv, install the requirements and run dnet as follows:
% pip install -r requirements.txt
% python main.py
Usage
Navigate up and down using the arrow keys. Type q to quit.
Config
The dnet config file can be found in bin/dnet/config.toml. Enter the
RPC ports of the nodes you want to connect to and title them as you see
fit. The default config file uses localhost, but you can replace this
with hostnames or external IP addresses. You must also specify whether
it is a NORMAL or a LILITH node.
Logging
dnet creates a log file in bin/dnet/dnet.log. To see json data and
other debug info, tail the file like so:
tail -f dnet.log
