OS

To successfully follow the examples in the Hyperledger Indy Technical Deep Dive training, you will need an operating system that supports docker. We recommend Ubuntu 18.04 or Mac.

Required Tools

If not already installed, you will need to install Git and Docker on your system to be able to do the hands-on Labs during the training. Please use the following steps in your command line tool:

git

• Ubuntu 18.04

  Code Block
  sudo apt install -y git

  
  

• Mac
  

  Code Block
  git --version

  If Git is not installed, it will prompt you to install it.        

Docker

• Only perform steps 1 and 2 from the following link to install docker on Ubuntu: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-install-and-use-docker-on-ubuntu-18-04.
• The following can be used as a guide to installing docker on Mac: https://docs.docker.com/desktop/mac/install/ 

Clone and build from the Git repo:

mkdir gitdir
cd gitdir
git clone https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node -b ubuntu-20.04-upgrade
cd indy-node 
docker build -t indy-node-dev -f .devcontainer/Dockerfile .devcontainer/ 
docker run --rm -it -v $(pwd):/node:z indy-node-dev
cd /node
pip install .[tests]
cd indy_common 
pytest . 
cd ../indy_node
pytest . 

The last few steps (pytest .) might take a long time to run (more than 20 minutes). A few individual test errors are expected at this time, but not more than 10.

NOTE: Ubuntu in a VM:

If Ubuntu is installed in a VirtualBox VM do the following:

• Perform all the steps listed in this tutorial to update your system and enable copy and paste.
• Make sure to restart your VM and that the Shared Clipboard is set to bidirectional:
• In your VM machine settings, in Virtual Box > General > Advanced
• set ‘Shared Clipboard’ to ‘Bidirectional’
