darkfi/bin/dnet

dnet

A simple tui to explore darkfi p2p network topology. Displays:

1. Active p2p nodes
2. Outgoing, incoming, manual and seed sessions
3. 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

% git clone https://github.com/darkrenaissance/darkfi 
% cd darkfi/bin/dnet
% python main.py

Navigate up and down using the arrow keys. Type q to quit.

Usage

The dnet config file can be found in bin/dnet/config.toml. You must enter the RPC ports of the nodes you want to connect to and title them as you see fit. You must also specify whether it is a NORMAL or a LILITH node. The default config file uses localhost, but you can replace this with hostnames or external IP addresses.

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
