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
