Welcome to the Cardano Parts Repository
Cardano is a decentralized third-generation proof-of-stake blockchain platform and home to the ada cryptocurrency. It is the first blockchain platform to evolve out of a scientific philosophy and a research-first driven approach.
The cardano-parts project serves as the common code repository for deploying cardano networks. It utilizes flake-parts and provides nixosModules and flakeModules to downstream consumers, such as cardano-playground.
Multiple cardano networks can be defined and deployed from within a single downstream repository.
Various nixos modules are provided which support cardano network deployments including roles of:
cardano-node
cardano-db-sync
cardano-smash
cardano-faucet
cardano-metadata
Create a new cardano-parts project with:
nix flake new -t github:input-output-hk/cardano-parts <NEW_DIRECTORY>
Git add all new project files:
cd <NEW_DIRECTORY> && git init && git add -Afv
Update the following files in the <NEW_DIRECTORY>:
# Update with details of your new cluster
flake/cluster.nix
# Update with details of your new nodes
flake/colmena.nix
# Update to define SSH access via auth-keys-hub
flake/nixosModules/common.nix
# If needed: resource customization
flake/cloudFormation/terraformState.nix
flake/opentofu/cluster.nix
Continue following the README found in your <NEW_DIRECTORY> and customize it as desired.
