Genesis
|
|
=======
|
|
|
|
The genesis.json file in ``$TMHOME/config`` defines the initial TendermintCore
|
|
state upon genesis of the blockchain (`see
|
|
definition <https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/blob/master/types/genesis.go>`__).
|
|
|
|
NOTE: This does not (yet) specify the application state (e.g. initial
|
|
distribution of tokens). Currently we leave it up to the application to
|
|
load the initial application genesis state. In the future, we may
|
|
include genesis SetOption messages that get passed from TendermintCore
|
|
to the app upon genesis.
|
|
|
|
Fields
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
- ``genesis_time``: Official time of blockchain start.
|
|
- ``chain_id``: ID of the blockchain. This must be unique for every
|
|
blockchain. If your testnet blockchains do not have unique chain IDs,
|
|
you will have a bad time.
|
|
- ``validators``:
|
|
- ``pub_key``: The first element specifies the pub\_key type. 1 ==
|
|
Ed25519. The second element are the pubkey bytes.
|
|
- ``power``: The validator's voting power.
|
|
- ``name``: Name of the validator (optional).
|
|
- ``app_hash``: The expected application hash (as returned by the
|
|
``Commit`` ABCI message) upon genesis. If the app's hash does not
|
|
match, a warning message is printed.
