Quickstart

The stellar-quickstart package configures a local stellar-core and stellar-horizon instance backed by a local PostgreSQL connecting to the SDF Testnet. Once installed you can easily modify either the stellar-core or stellar-horizon configs to suit your needs or to connect to the SDF Pubnet for example.

Installation

# sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install stellar-quickstart # install packages
# stellar-core-cmd info # stellar-horizon will only start ingesting when stellar-core is in synch

Accessing the quickstart databases

The stellar-quickstart package configures 2 databases, stellar and horizon. Access to these databases is managed via the stellar PostgreSQL role and it's corresponding stellar system user.

# sudo -u stellar psql -d stellar
psql (9.5.10)
Type "help" for help.

stellar-core new-db

As with accessing the database directly, you can re-initialise the stellar-core db by running stellar-core as the stellar system user.

# sudo -u stellar stellar-core --conf /etc/stellar/stellar-core.cfg new-db

moving on from Quickstart

stellar-quickstart is a configuration package that through it's dependencies pulls in the required packages.

Package Dependencies Comments
stellar-core none installs stellar-core binary, systemd service, logrotate script, documentation
stellar-core-utils none installs useful command line tools (stellar-core-cmd, stellar-core-gap-detect)
stellar-core-prometheus-exporter none installs a Prometheus exporter to facilitate ingesting stellar-core metrics
stellar-core-postgres stellar-core, PostgreSQL configures a PostgreSQL server, creates a stellar db,role and system user, the default stellar-core configuration contained in this package will connect to the Testnet
stellar-archivist none installs stellar-archivist cli tool for managing stellar-core History archives
stellar-horizon none installs stellar-horizon binary, systemd service
stellar-horizon-utils none installs useful command line tools (stellar-horizon-cmd)
stellar-horizon-postgres stellar-horizon, PostgreSQL configures a PostgreSQL server, creates a horizon db and stellar role, system user
stellar-quickstart stellar-core-postgres, stellar-horizon-postgres pulls in required packages via it's dependencies

Once you are comfortable with the various packages that stellar-quickstart brings in as dependencies, it is possible to install them individually.

See Running Horizon in production for a generic distributed Horizon cluster, you will need to configure PostgreSQL which unfortunately is out of the scope of this document.
