Step into the Primev ecosystem with ease. This guide covers everything you need to set up your mev-commit node, whether you’re aiming to be a bidder or a provider.
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.
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.
