Quickstart

Ready to get your node up and running? This streamlined process will guide you through launching either a bidder or provider node on the mev-commit network. 
 curl -L -o launchmevcommit launch.mev-commit.xyz; chmod +x launchmevcommit; ./launchmevcommit --node-type bidder

​
Script Overview

This script automates the setup and initialization of your Primev node, catering to both bidder and provider roles. Below is a detailed breakdown of the script’s operations:

​
1. Initialization

  • Sets up essential variables like the RPC URL (https://chainrpc.testnet.mev-commit.xyz) for network communication and the node type (either bidderorprovider`).
  • Establishes the root directory ($HOME/.mev-commit) where the mev-commit node will be installed.

​
2. Download

  • Fetches the appropriate mev-commit binary for your system from the Primev GitHub releases page, considering your operating system and architecture.

​
3. Installation

  • Extracts the downloaded binary into the specified root directory, ensuring all necessary executables are correctly placed for the node’s operation.

​
4. Configuration

  • Initializes the mev-commit node with your specified settings, including the node type and the RPC endpoint, along with necessary contract addresses for the node’s functionality.

​
5. Wallet Setup

  • Generates a new private key and wallet address for your node and secures it with test ether to facilitate transactions within the testnet environment.

​
6. Node Startup

  • Launches the mev-commit node in the background tailored to the specified role, enabling it to begin its operations within the Primev network.

​
7. Cleanup

  • Includes a cleanup function to ensure the node is properly shut down when the script exits, preventing any residual processes.
