Rippled Cookbook
Overview
This cookbook compiles and installs a Ripple node (version 0.30.0-hf1). At the time of writing Ripple Labs does not provide a precompiled package for the most recent release, therefore the only installation method available is via sources.
The cookbook generally follows instructions published at here with the following improvements:
- allow to bind on privileged ports
- customized init.d
script based on one from Ripple Labs provided ubuntu package
Attributes
Please refer to rippled example configuration in sources for the full list of settings souces.
All attributes within node["rippled"]["config"]
will be converted to the content of rippled.cfg
. A key
from node["rippled"]["config"][key]
becomes a section. A corresponding value might be a string (converts to a single string in the section), an array (each element goes as a string in the section), a map (converts to a list of key=value strings), nil
(to suppress default attributes, the section is not created then). It is clear from examples:
An array
node["rippled"]["config"]["server"] = ["port_rpc_admin_local", "port_peer", "port_ws_admin_local"]
becomes a section (mind server
-> [server]
transformation done by the recipe)
[server]
port_rpc_admin_local
port_peer
port_ws_admin_local
A single value
node["rippled"]["config"]["node_size"] = "medium"
becomes a section
[node_size]
medium
A map
node["rippled"]["config"]["port_peer"] = {
"port" => "51235",
"ip" => "0.0.0.0",
"protocol" => "peer"
}
becomes a section
[port_peer]
port=51235
ip=0.0.0.0
protocol=peer
A nil
node["rippled"]["config"]["port_ws_admin_local"] = nil
removes port_ws_admin_local
section
Generally speaking, sections of rippled.cfg
contain lines with either values or key-value pairs. The only mix is [server]
and putting a key-value there is syntax sugar and thus can be easily avoided. If you still need a mix, you can use the following construction
default["rippled"]["config"]["server"] = ["port_rpc_admin_local", "#port_ws_public", "ssl_key = /etc/ssl/private/server.key", "ssl_cert = /etc/ssl/certs/server.crt"]
The default attributes merely repeat default rippled configuration from souces. For better version tracking a copy of this example used to derive the attributes is saved in this cookbook at materials/rippled-example.cfg
If the following paths are specified (explicitly or with default values), the recipe will create corresponding folders for under node['rippled']['user']
ownership:
["rippled"]["config"]["node_db"]["path"]
["rippled"]["config"]["database_path"]
["rippled"]["rippled"]["config"]["debug_logfile"]
All other attributes are listed below.
Attribute | Description | Default |
---|---|---|
node['rippled']['git_repository'] |
Git repository of rippled sources | https://github.com/ripple/rippled.git |
node['rippled']['git_revision'] |
Git revision to check out | 0.30.0-hf1 |
node['rippled']['run_tests'] |
Run internal tests, true or false
|
true |
node['rippled']['cmd_params'] |
Additional command line parameters to the daemon (*) | --net |
node['rippled']['config'] |
Content of rippled.cfg (described above) | identical to rippled-example.cfg |
node['rippled']['user'] |
User to run the daemon | rippled |
node['rippled']['group'] |
Group to create for the User | rippled |
node['rippled']['pid_path'] |
Path to pid-file | /var/run/rippled.pid |
node['rippled']['binary_path'] |
Where to install the executable | /usr/bin/rippled |
node['rippled']['config_path'] |
Where to install the config pid-file | /etc/rippled/rippled.cfg |
(*) Do not add --conf
or --fg
here, neither add parameters that will cause the daemon to exit (like --help
)
Supported Platforms
- Ubuntu 14.04
Known issues
- You need at least 16G memory to compile rippled. If memory is insufficient, g++ fails with an internal error. See
.kitchen.yml
-
service status rippled
fails from non-privileged user because cannot read the config file. The file might have validation keys and thus restricted on purpose. If this issue bothers anybody, permissions shall be made configurable via chef attribures.
rippled versions, cookbook versioning
This cookbook follows semantic versioning.
Here is how to update the cookbook for a newer rippled version.
* Copy rippled/doc/rippled-example.cfg
to materials/rippled.cfg
* Reflect any changes in ["rippled"]["config"]
attributes
* Bump rippled version in ["rippled"]["git_revision"]
attribute and in this README
* Bump cookbook version (since we alter the default value for git_revision
, it is a breaking change)
* Update changelog
* knife cookbook site share rippled Other -VV
