Steps for setting up miners

Steps:

1. If you are miner, create a config.yaml file in the directory as shown below:

   miners:
     - n2n_ip: miner1.abc.com # or localhost if you are configuring chain locally
       public_ip: miner1.abc.com # or localhost if you are configuring chain locally
       port: 7071
       description: description # e.g. hi i'm miner1.abc.com

2. Create nodes.yaml, operational wallets, mpks and send the miner information to the server.

   go run main.go generate-keys --signature_scheme bls0chain --miners 1 --sharders 0

3. Create and send shares to the server.

   go run main.go send-shares

4. Verify the shares and send the signatures to the server.

   go run main.go validate-shares

Files generated with above steps:

• nodes.yaml as below:

  miners:
  - id: bfee96ce93b61b44ade080ac7199c594f4aff28d11e163d60d797d78e38a29ae

• operational wallet b0mnode1_keys.json inside ./keys folder as below:

  {"client_id":"bfee96ce93b61b44ade080ac7199c594f4aff28d11e163d60d797d78e38a29ae","client_key":"05f7272e07422c65d445c312e283be878b2c58455a22afc3b4b698563780ca23ba239cacc2993a9b492b1d63873fbc7c2f5598f30d8c15e6baf1fefbaadb3b9a","keys":[{"public_key":"05f7272e07422c65d445c312e283be878b2c58455a22afc3b4b698563780ca23ba239cacc2993a9b492b1d63873fbc7c2f5598f30d8c15e6baf1fefbaadb3b9a","private_key":"e5d8d49d44ccb1fdcb62a5a369261e17cc61caeb2cffbbf563df65db41b05416"}],"mnemonics":"top sun wage still snap female endless fame guilt gravity grow explain renew drip educate habit current what pumpkin eyebrow gentle same slide inherit","version":"1.0","date_created":"2023-03-25T17:45:52+01:00","nonce":0}

Generating Magicblock.

When all the activeset users have shared submitted their nodes info to the server using above steps, magicblock will get generated.

• Use the run the below step to download the magicblock, dkg & initial-state files.

  go run main.go get-magicblock

With above command below files will get dowloaded from the magicblock server.

• b0magicBlock.json file

• dkg file b0mnode1_dkg.json for miner.

• initial-states.yaml to start miner.

Conclusion

After following above steps below files are needs to be present on user server.

• b0mnode1_keys.json

• nodes.yaml

• b0magicBlock.json

• b0mnode1_dkg.json

• initial-states.yaml
