This PR introduces two improvements to development experience when using devnet.sh to start dev nodes locally.
Support for custom executables. This PR enables devnet.sh to start local devnet nodes using a custom executable instead of currently installed
snarkos
executable, by setting the path to an environment variable. For example:When
SNARKOS_BIN
is set, the script skips the question of whether to rebuild+install thesnarkos
executable.Auto-restart option. This PR also implements a simple auto-restart for
snarkOS
-processes using a infinite while-loop in bash. With this, you can test dev nodes going off and back online simply by sendingSIGTERM
signals to processes. The length of the auto-restart delay can be configured during script startup.
