New Parameters

  • pocket_config.prevent_negative_reward_claim (boolean) If set to true, this node does not send a claim for an evidence which is expected to earn rewards less than its claiming cost. Defaults to false.

New CLI Commands

For more details, run each command with --help option.

  • pocket nodes stakeNew Stakes a node. Unlike the legacy nodes stake command, you can specify <SignerAddress> and <RewardDelegators>, and you don't have to specify a boolean <isBefore8.0>.
  • pocket apps transfer Transfers the slot of a staked app from one to another without unstaking it.

Upgrading the CLI

brew tap pokt-network/pocket-core
brew install pocket

RC-0.10.3

RC 0.10.3

Please see RC-0.10.0 for all the instructions and details when moving from RC-0.9.X to RC-0.10.X

tl;dr I'm a node runner upgrading from RC-0.9.X to RC-0.10.X

Update your configs like so:

  1. Set client_session_sync_allowance to a value > 0 in pocket_config to support session rollovers
  2. Double the memory configs in your mempool to support larger blocks (i.e. 8MB instead of 4MB)

For example:

"Mempool": {
    "RootDir": "/home/app/.pocket",
    "Recheck": true,
    "Broadcast": true,
    "WalPath": "",
-    "Size": 9000,
-    "MaxTxsBytes": 1073741824,
-    "CacheSize": 9000,
-    "MaxTxBytes": 1048576
+    "Size": 18000,
+   "MaxTxsBytes": 2147483648,
+   "CacheSize": 18000,
+   "MaxTxBytes": 2097152
},

RC-0.10.0

10 months ago

IMPORTANT: This is a stable (TestNet verified) release but the rollout has been delayed due to recent changes in portal.pokt.network. Please stay tuned on all communications and we will notify Node runners and exchanges once major adoption beings

EDIT 07/05/2023: Please see RC-0.10.3 for the release following this one

RC 0.10.0

Adoption Instruction

Node Runners need to update their configurations to enable some of the new featuers

Configurations - Mempool for Block Size

In order to enable larger block sizes, the mempool also needs to double to account for that capacity. Therefore, node runners are asked to double their mempool configs.

For example, if it was previously

"Mempool": {
    "RootDir": "/home/app/.pocket",
    "Recheck": true,
    "Broadcast": true,
    "WalPath": "",
    "Size": 9000,
    "MaxTxsBytes": 1073741824,
    "CacheSize": 9000,
    "MaxTxBytes": 1048576
},

The new suggested configurations are:

"Mempool": {
    "RootDir": "/home/app/.pocket",
    "Recheck": true,
    "Broadcast": true,
    "WalPath": "",
    "Size": 18000,
    "MaxTxsBytes": 2147483648,
    "CacheSize": 18000,
    "MaxTxBytes": 2097152
},

Configurations - Session Rollover

client_session_sync_allowance was added with the following description:

- **"client_session_sync_allowance"**: The +/- allowance in amount of sessions for a relay request \(mechanism to allow for servicing stale sessions for whenever session height changes.)

It is an optional configuration, defaulting to 1, that can be set in the pocket_config section of the config.json file.

"pocket_config": {
    ...
    "client_session_sync_allowance": 0
  }

RC-0.9.2

1 year ago

RC-0.9.2

This version brings one new feature and two new endpoints to Pocket Core:

New feature: LeanPocket

LeanPocket is a configuration that enables multiple Pocket instances to run on a single process, allowing node runners to consolidate resources, resulting in better scalability and reduced hardware costs.

  1. Create a new lean_nodes_keys.json file inside your Pocket configuration directory (typically .pocket).

  2. Format the file with a JSON array of your node's private keys:

   [
     { "priv_key": "<PRIVATE_KEY_1>" },
     { "priv_key": "<PRIVATE_KEY_2>" }
   ]
  1. Set/update your validators:

pocket accounts set-validators <path/to/lean_nodes_keys.json>

  1. Edit your node's config.json file to add lean_pocket: "true"; in the pocket_config block.

  2. If you run a script that starts the Pocket service, add --keybase=false to the pocket start command.

  3. Edit your proxy settings such that the /v1 endpoint is publicly accessible for every one of your nodes.

  4. Restart your Pocket service, making sure to add the --keybase=false option.
