Changes

See beacon directory and consensus/state.go for main changes. Swig and C++ Boost libraries will need to be installed for the c++ to go interface and serialisation, respectively.

Install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/herumi/mcl
cd mcl
make install

You will also need swig and GMP for the go-c++ interface and mcl. On Ubuntu

sudo apt-get libgmp-dev swig

To run all tests:

make test

To create a single node, which also generates entropy, run the following from the root directory

make build
cd build
./tendermint init

This creates genesis and validator information. To start the node

./tendermint node --proxy_app=kvstore

The logs should show the node running the DKG and executing blocks, which contain the entropy in hex format after DKG completion.

For creating testnet with 4 validator nodes run

./tendermint testnet

This will create the required tendermint files for each node.

Second, determine the IDs for each node by running. We will denote the IDs as ID0, ID1, ID2, ID3.

./tendermint show_node_id --home mytestnet/node0
./tendermint show_node_id --home mytestnet/node1
./tendermint show_node_id --home mytestnet/node2
./tendermint show_node_id --home mytestnet/node3

Now, assign each node two unique port numbers, denoted by P and Q, for listening to incoming peer connections and rpcs. Start each node in a separate terminal using

./tendermint node --home mytestnet/node0 --proxy_app=kvstore --p2p.laddr="tcp://127.0.0.1:P0" --rpc.laddr="tcp://127.0.0.1:Q0" --p2p.persistent_peers="[email protected]:P1,[email protected]:P2,[email protected]:P3" 

./tendermint node --home mytestnet/node1 --proxy_app=kvstore --p2p.laddr="tcp://127.0.0.1:P1" --rpc.laddr="tcp://127.0.0.1:Q1" --p2p.persistent_peers="[email protected]:P0,[email protected]:P2,[email protected]:P3" 

./tendermint node --home mytestnet/node2 --proxy_app=kvstore --p2p.laddr="tcp://127.0.0.1:P2" --rpc.laddr="tcp://127.0.0.1:Q2" --p2p.persistent_peers="[email protected]:P0,[email protected]:P1,[email protected]:P3" 

./tendermint node --home mytestnet/node3 --proxy_app=kvstore --p2p.laddr="tcp://127.0.0.1:P3" --rpc.laddr="tcp://127.0.0.1:Q3" --p2p.persistent_peers="[email protected]:P0,[email protected]:P1,[email protected]:P2" 

After starting the third node blocks should start to be executed.

Branch Tests Coverage
master CircleCI codecov

Tendermint Core is Byzantine Fault Tolerant (BFT) middleware that takes a state transition machine - written in any programming language - and securely replicates it on many machines.

For protocol details, see the specification.

For detailed analysis of the consensus protocol, including safety and liveness proofs, see our recent paper, "The latest gossip on BFT consensus".

Releases

NOTE: The master branch is now an active development branch (starting with v0.32). Please, do not depend on it and use releases instead.

Tendermint is being used in production in both private and public environments, most notably the blockchains of the Cosmos Network. However, we are still making breaking changes to the protocol and the APIs and have not yet released v1.0. See below for more details about versioning.

In any case, if you intend to run Tendermint in production, please contact us and join the chat.

Versioning

Semantic Versioning

Tendermint uses Semantic Versioning to determine when and how the version changes. According to SemVer, anything in the public API can change at any time before version 1.0.0

To provide some stability to Tendermint users in these 0.X.X days, the MINOR version is used to signal breaking changes across a subset of the total public API. This subset includes all interfaces exposed to other processes (cli, rpc, p2p, etc.), but does not include the in-process Go APIs.

That said, breaking changes in the following packages will be documented in the CHANGELOG even if they don't lead to MINOR version bumps:

  • crypto
  • types
  • rpc/client
  • config
  • node
  • libs
    • bech32
    • common
    • db
    • errors
    • log

Exported objects in these packages that are not covered by the versioning scheme are explicitly marked by // UNSTABLE in their go doc comment and may change at any time without notice. Functions, types, and values in any other package may also change at any time.

Upgrades

In an effort to avoid accumulating technical debt prior to 1.0.0, we do not guarantee that breaking changes (ie. bumps in the MINOR version) will work with existing tendermint blockchains. In these cases you will have to start a new blockchain, or write something custom to get the old data into the new chain.

However, any bump in the PATCH version should be compatible with existing histories (if not please open an issue).

For more information on upgrading, see UPGRADING.md.

Supported Versions

Because we are a small core team, we only ship patch updates, including security updates, to the most recent minor release and the second-most recent minor release. Consequently, we strongly recommend keeping Tendermint up-to-date. Upgrading instructions can be found in UPGRADING.md.
