Running a local Haveno test network

These are the steps needed to set up a local Haveno test network. You'll have the possibility to either connect to our shared Monero stagenet node or to create your own private stagenet.

1. Install dependencies

On Ubuntu: sudo apt install make wget git git-lfs openjdk-11-jdk. The Bitcoin and Monero binaries will be downloaded and verified automatically in the next step.

2. Build Haveno

  1. Download this repository: git clone https://github.com/haveno-dex/haveno.git
  2. Navigate to the root of the repository (cd haveno) and build the repository: run make in the terminal and wait until the process is completed (this will also download and verify the Monero and Bitcoin binaries).

3. Run Bitcoin

Run each of these commands in their own terminal window:

  1. Run Bitcoin: make bitcoind
  2. Create bitcoin blocks: make btc-blocks (after running the command, this terminal window can be closed)

4. Connect to Monero stagenet

The quickest way to get a Monero stagenet running is by connecting to our own shared instance (4a) so you won't have to do anything except mine coins for testing (step 6). If you prefer to have total control over the testing instance, you might prefer running your own private Monero stagenet (4b).

4a. Join our shared stagenet

Run make monero-shared

4b. Run your own private stagenet

  1. In a new terminal window run make monero-private1;
  2. In a new terminal window run make monero-private2;
  3. Now mine the first 130 blocks to a random address before using, so wallets only use the latest output type. Run in one of the terminal windows opened above:

5. Deploy

If you are a screen user, simply run make deploy. This command will open all needed Haveno instances (seednode, Alice, Bob, arbitrator) using screen. If you don't use screen, open 4 terminal windows and run in each one of them:

  1. make seednode
  2. make arbitrator-desktop 1. After the user interface opens, go to the Account tab and press cmd+n. Confirm the registration of the arbitrator. 2. From the Account tab press cmd+d and confirm the registration of the mediator.
  3. make alice-desktop or if you want to run Alice as a daemon: make alice-daemon
  4. make bob-desktop or if you want to run Bob as a daemon: make bob-daemon

6. Fund your wallets

When running Alice and Bob, you'll see a Monero address prompted in the terminal. Send stagenet XMR to the addresses of both Alice and Bob to be able to initiate a trade.

You can fund the two wallets by mining some stagenet XMR coins to those addresses. To do so, open a terminal where you ran monerod and run: start_mining ADDRESS 1.

monerod will start mining stagenet coins on your device using one thread. Replace ADDRESS with the address of Alice first, and then Bob's.

7. Start testing

You are all set. Now that everything is running and your wallets are funded, you can create test trades between Alice and Bob. Remember to mine a few blocks after opening and accepting the test trade so the transaction will be confirmed.
