Programs

The various programs that you can run as part of Snowblossom. Almost all programs take a single command line parameter, which is a config file to use.


As an example, here are the ways to invoke a SnowBlossomNode:

  • From a release zip:
   java -jar SnowBlossomNode_deploy.jar node.conf
  • From bazel:
   bazel build :all
   bazel-bin/SnowBlossomNode node.conf
  • From bazel as standalone jar (you can copy this jar to other machines):
   bazel build :SnowBlossomNode_deploy.jar
   java -jar bazel-bin/SnowBlossomNode_deploy.jar node.conf

  • SnowBlossomNode Config Options - The node that maintains peer to peer links and maintains a copy of the blockchain. Responds to queries from other programs regarding the blockchain. Holds no keys.
  • PoolMiner Config Options - A mining agent that connects to a mining pool and does mining work. Does not require a node (other than the mining pool itself needs to have a node).
