Vexta Core

This directory contains helper scripts and configuration examples for running a Vexta node.

Files

  • vexta.conf.example
  • vexta-mainnet.conf
  • vexta-testnet.conf
  • vexta-regtest.conf
  • install-node.sh
  • start-mainnet.sh
  • stop-node.sh

Running a local node

Copy one of the example configuration files into your data directory:

cp vexta-mainnet.conf ~/.vexta/vexta.conf

Start the node:

vextad -daemon

Stop the node:

vexta-cli stop

Check blockchain status:

vexta-cli getblockchaininfo

Installing on Ubuntu

Run the installer as a normal user with sudo access:

./contrib/vexta/install-node.sh

The script installs build dependencies, builds Vexta Core without the GUI, and installs the command-line binaries into /usr/local/bin.
