Should work on any system that supports LXC/LXD containers
do this only if you haven't yet bootstrapped any of lxd before
sudo snap install lxd
sudo lxd init --auto --storage-backend=dir
Other converge dependencies will be installed with the run of the converge.sh script
See the QuickStart section above
At this point you should have the virtualenv and dependencies installed so just bootstrap to it and roll with molecule directly
source provisioningenv/bin/activate
# converge against the default PAB commit
molecule converge -s lxd-pab
# == OR ==
# converge against the specific commit
# 3rd Pioneer's cohort week 3 commit given as an example:
PAB_COMMIT=4edc082309c882736e9dec0132a3c936fe63b4ea molecule converge -s lxd-pab
It's usually easy enough to destroy the container and converge it a new if something craps out.
source provisioningenv/bin/activate
molecule destroy -s lxd-pab
Afterwards follow the Quickstart guide a new
lxc list
it should be named pab on that list
At this point you have the PAB toolset installed inside the LXD container
as the nix user.
lxc exec pab -- sudo --login --user nix
PAB sources from IOHK are checked out into ~/pab
lxc config device add pab workspace disk source=[your workspace's path] path=/home/nix/code
You can map either a containing folder with all your (Plutus) projects, or a specific project.
I suggest the former as it will make the whole setup so much more dynamic.
Then access it as nix user from that path given in the command itself: /home/nix/code
Once you have your projects mapped interacting with the PAB is a matter of logging onto the container as the nix user
and executing commands as you would normally do, according to tutorials or to Plutus Programme
lxc exec pab -- sudo --login --user nix # start interacting with the container as the nix user
cd pab # enter the pab repo
nix-shell # bootstrap the nix-shell
cd ../code # now you're in the main folder with your projects
# and can follow along the training material
A top-up example assuming the pioneer's repo is already there in the projects' list
lxc exec pab -- sudo --login --user nix # start interacting with the container as the nix user
cd pab # enter the pab repo
nix-shell # bootstrap the nix-shell
cd ~/code/plutus-pioneer-program/code/week01/ # 3rd cohort week 1 codes
cabal update # update cabal
cabal build # build

This section is a work in progress as I go through the Plutus Pioneer's course.

-
If not done yet, PAB has to be converged with either:
- the default PAB_COMMIT with:
./converge.sh - the specific PAB_COMMIT with:
PAB_COMMIT=4edc082309c882736e9dec0132a3c936fe63b4ea molecule converge -s lxd-pab
- the default PAB_COMMIT with:
-
Start the server
./playgound-server.sh -
Let the server script complete
-
In a separate terminal start the client
./playgound-client.sh -
Get the ip of the container running the playground:
PAB_IP=$(lxc list | grep pab | awk '{print $6}')
- the playground will be available from your browser under
http://${PAB_IP}:8009
# Get the public ip of the container
lxc list | grep pab | awk '{print $6}' # show the PAB container's IP
./build-and-serve-docs.sh # Start the haddock server
documentation will be available from your browser under http://[PAB_IP]:8002/haddock
