How to Run Robonomics Dev Node

For testing your applications on Robonomics you may want to run it in the dev mode. This article shows step-by-step instructions how to get your own local testing instance of Robonomics.

Get Node Binary

  1. First, you need a binary file, download the archive with it from the latest release.

  2. Navigate to the archive folder, unpack the binary and change permissions:

tar xf robonomics-2.4.0-x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz
chmod +x robonomics

Run

Run the node with:

./robonomics --dev

You will see the following output:

robonomics

From Scratch
If you want to purge existing blocks you may do this with removing RocksDB at /tmp/substrate******/chains/dev/db/full.
Replace ****** with a corresponding identifier displayed in logs on launch.

If you want to start the node from scratch every time use --tmp flag.

Connect

Now you can connect to your local node through the Polkadot Portal.

Change the network to Local Node in the upper left corner and press Switch.
