Ontology Exchange Docking Document

There are two kinds of assets that are part of the Ontology system: native assets and contract assets.

Native assets are ONT and ONG. Upon integration with exchange platforms they are enabled to process exchange and redeeming of these tokens.

Deploying a Synchronization Node

There are two ways to deploy Ontology synchronization nodes:

Get from source code

Clone ontology repository to $GOPATH/src/github.com/ontio directory

$ git clone https://github.com/ontio/ontology.git

Or

$ go get github.com/ontio/ontology

Use the third-party package management tool glide to manage the dependent libraries

$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/ontio/ontology
$ glide install

Compile source code with make

$ make

An executable program will be generated after a successful compilation (using make all command will generate sig server under 'tools' directory )

  • ontology: Node program/node control program provided by command line

Get from release

release page

Server deployment

  1. Create wallet(not mandatory for sync node)

Create the wallet file wallet.dat that is required for nodes running through the CLI

$ ./ontology account add -d
Use default setting '-t ecdsa -b 256 -s SHA256withECDSA' 
    signature algorithm: ecdsa 
    curve: P-256 
    signature scheme: SHA256withECDSA
