lgtm-migrator / executionbackup

A Ethereum 2.0 multiplexer for execution nodes to consensus nodes, and more.

executionbackup-cpp

executionbackup is a multiplexer between consensus and execution nodes.

executionbackup lets one (and only one) consensus node to pilot multiple execution nodes.

It has been tested and are working on Phase 0, as well as on merged testnets (kiln).

Running

Pre-Built Binaries

Pre-Built Binaries are provided under the github realease.

Install Rust

First, install Rust using rustup. The rustup installer provides an easy way to update the Rust compiler, and works on all platforms. Rust is needed no matter your platform.

Linux

First, install the requirements:

sudo apt install -y build-essential cmake

Then clone the repo and build:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/tennisbowling/executionbackup.git
cd executionbackup
make

Binaries will be in the bin folder

Windows

Requirements:

• Visual Studio (with the c++ compiler)
• Cmake

Clone:

git clone --recursive https://github.com/tennisbowling/executionbackup.git
cd executionbackup/executionbackup-cpp

Then build:

cmake -S . -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build . --config Release

Binaries will be in the bin folder

TODO

• Add real tests - tests right now are made by spinning an actual EE (multiple) and CL on kiln/whatever current testnet there is. While this is extremely effective - simulating actual network conditions, it is slow.
• connection speedups to the EE (I already know how I'm planning on doing this)

Dockerized Version

You can find a dockerized version for easy setup under dockerized folder
