Lightning is the open-source Rust implementation of Fleek Network.

This repository contains the source code for the implementation of Fleek Network.

The main branch is considered a WIP and may at times be buggy or broken. To try out the code checkout the stable branch,

Here is the directory schema:

lightning
├── lib
│   ├── affair
│   ├── atomo
│   ├── blake3-stream
│   ├── blake3-tree
│   ├── fleek-crypto
│   ├── hp-fixed
│   ├── ink-quill
│   ├── sdk

│   ├── simuon

├── core

│   ├── blockstore

└── services

    └── ...

There are 3 top level directories lib & core and services:

1. lib: Any open source libraries we create to solve our own problems, these libraries are released with the friendly licenses with the Rust ecosystem (MIT | Apache).

2. core: This is all of the implementation of the core protocol, the main crate is node which contains our most important and released main.rs. Another important crate that is advised to everyone to get familiar with is interfaces which contains the top-down specification of all of the project.

3. services: Our services which we build using the SDK.

The design pattern adopted for this software is highly inspired by the Object-Oriented model described by Alan Kay, which may be a bit different from OOP that grew to fame due to Java.

In a nutshell this is similar to the same idea, and we represent different units of computation and process as objects that communicate with each other by message passing.

To run a local devnet node and perform a simple healthcheck, do the following:

# Initialize local devnet configuration
$ cargo run -- init --dev

# Start the node up
$ cargo run --all-features -- run

# In another terminal, send a request to the ping rpc endpoint
$ curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
      "jsonrpc": "2.0",
      "method": "flk_ping",
      "params": [],
      "id": 1
    }' http://127.0.0.1:4230/rpc/v0
# Response: {"jsonrpc":"2.0","result":"pong","id":1}

To run standard development checks such as testing, linting, and building locally, you can execute dev/checks, or any of dev/test, dev/clippy, dev/fmt, dev/build individually.

The project provides a nix flake for a determanistic development and build environment.

Nix (with flakes enabled) can be easily installed with https://github.com/DeterminateSystems/nix-installer

curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf -L https://install.determinate.systems/nix | sh -s -- install

Cache is provided via garnix.io.

A development environment can be used with:

nix develop github:fleek-network/lightning

# For a local repo
nix develop .

The project can be built in a pure offline environment with:

nix build github:fleek-network/lightning

# For a local repo
nix build .

A shell can also be spawned with the lightning-node binary provided in the path:

nix shell github:fleek-network/lightning

# For a local repo
nix shell .

The binary can also be ran directly:

nix run github:fleek-network/lightning -- run -v

# For a local repo
nix run . -- run -v
