go-livepeer-basicnet

Implementation of the Livepeer VideoNetwork interface. Built with libp2p.

Installation

gx and gx-go are required.

go get -u github.com/whyrusleeping/gx
go get -u github.com/whyrusleeping/gx-go
gx-go get github.com/livepeer/go-livepeer-basicnet

Testing

To run a specific test: go test -run Reconnect to run TestReconnect from the basic_network_test.go file.

To run all the tests in a specific file: make network_node_test to run network_node_test.go

To run all tests: go test

Updating libp2p packages

For now this is an interative and error-prone process.

# Turn gx hashes into github.com import paths
gx-go uw
# Update package.json as needed (usually can just copy from go-ipfs)
gx-go rw
# Remove gx directory in GOPATH/src
rm -rf $GOPATH/src/gx # maybe back this up first!
gx install

Follow instructions on screen. If it fails due to a dependency or IPFS error: ignore, remove gx-workspace-update.json, and retry the command. Repeat until git diff looks somewhat correct. In particular, the package.json should be updated and the gx hashes replaced by Github paths.

Run gx-go rewrite to rewrite the gx hashes and then check with go test.

If compilation fails, and the errors seem to be clustered around version conflicts of a particular package, you might have to gx workspace-update that package manually to knock it down to a compatible version.

Good luck, have fun.
