bsc-docker-deploy

Deploy a local cluster of BSC validators using Docker.

Steps to run

If the keys/ directory is empty , run the following command to generate a new set of keys for the validators:
```
bash setup_keys.sh generate
```
You can view the generated keys with:
```
bash setup_keys.sh view
```
Initialize the BSC, Beacon Chain, and bsc-genesis-contract repositories:
```
bash init_submodules.sh
```
Build these repositories:
```
bash build_submodules.sh
```
To try new features you can checkout different branches of these repositories and rebuild.
Generate genesis.json:
```
bash generate_genesis.sh
```
This will generate the genesis file with all 5 authorities as validators. If you want a custom number of validators (up to 5) you can pass the number as an argument. E.g.
```
bash generate_genesis.sh 3
```
This will register 3 validators: Alice , Bob and Charlie.
Build the docker image:
```
bash docker_build.sh
```
Run the cluster:
```
docker-compose up
```
This will run all 5 validators.

If you want to run certain validators (e.g. Alice, Charlie and Eve) you can pass the names as arguments to docker compose:
```
docker-compose up alice charlie eve
```
