[genesis-generation]: Rearchitect how genesis files are generated #231

Closed barnabasbusa closed 9 months ago

barnabasbusa commented 9 months ago

Currently the genesis files for CL and EL are generated using complex starlark files.

When some parameters change in the upstream (ethereum-genesis-generator) these changes have to be imported into the starlark files.

Instead of doing it this way, it would be better to feed an env file to the ethereum-genesis-generator docker file, and let it generate all the files. As it has this functionality already built into it.

Technically we could get rid of: https://github.com/kurtosis-tech/eth-network-package/blob/main/static_files/genesis-generation-config/el/genesis-config.yaml.tmpl https://github.com/kurtosis-tech/eth-network-package/blob/main/static_files/genesis-generation-config/cl/mnemonics.yaml.tmpl https://github.com/kurtosis-tech/eth-network-package/blob/main/static_files/genesis-generation-config/cl/config.yaml.tmpl

And just replace it all with an env where we import the the fork_epochs and other parameters like slots per second.
