Steps to run multi node Hyperledger Sawtooth-Raft setup on single machine, with grafana statistics enabled

sawtooth-raft-setup-grafana.txt

Clone the https://github.com/hyperledger/sawtooth-core and https://github.com/hyperledger/sawtooth-raft repositories.

Step 1: Bring up admin service
$ cd sawtooth-raft/adhoc
$ docker-compose -f admin.yaml up -d

Step 2: Bring up grafana and influxdb services
$ cd sawtooth-raft/tests
$ SAWTOOTH_CORE=/path/to/repository/sawtooth-core docker-compose -f grafana.yaml up -d

Step 3: Bring up nodes as stated in sawtooth-raft documentation,
a. For example if it's non-genesis node
$ SAWTOOTH_CORE=/path/to/repository/sawtooth-core docker-compose -f node-with-stats.yaml -p nongenesis up
b. For example if it's genesis node
$ SAWTOOTH_CORE=/path/to/repository/sawtooth-core GENESIS=1 docker-compose -f node-with-stats.yaml -p genesis up

Step 4: To access grafana, go to browser and the link http://[IP-of-the-machine]:3000

Troubleshooting:
1. For issues with proxy network builds add "--keyserver-options http-proxy=http://proxy-network-host:port" in add apt-key.
2. Follow recommended configuration for running sawtooth-raft on multi node setup.
sawtooth.consensus.algorithm.name=raft
sawtooth.consensus.algorithm.version=0.1
sawtooth.gossip.time_to_live=0
sawtooth.consensus.raft.period=6000
sawtooth.consensus.raft.heartbeat_tick=40
sawtooth.consensus.raft.election_tick=200
sawtooth.publisher.max_batches_per_block=70
3. Make sure for every code change, the sawtooth-raft is built again. It's advised to clean the target folder and bin directory.
4. For building sawtooth-raft
docker run -v /full/path/to/sawtooth-raft:/project/sawtooth-raft sawtooth-raft-local-engine
5. For creating a debian package
a. First create a docker image with the latest code.
docker-compose -f docker-compose-installed.yaml build
b. Copy the created debian from the docker image created.
docker-compose -f ci/copy-debs.yaml up
