Building pd
The node software pd
is part of the same repository as pcli
, so follow
those instructions to clone the repo and install dependencies.
To build pd
, run
cargo build --release --bin pd
Because you are building a work-in-progress version of the node software, you may see compilation warnings, which you can safely ignore.
Installing Tendermint
You’ll need to have Tendermint installed on your system to join your node to the testnet.
NOTE: Previous versions of Penumbra used Tendermint 0.35, which
has now been officially
deprecated
by the Tendermint Council. We have now rolled back to
v0.34.
Do not use Tendermint 0.35
, which will no longer work with pd
.
that can prevent nodes from staying online.
Follow Tendermint’s installation instructions,
but before you start compiling, make sure you are compiling version v0.34.23
.
git checkout v0.34.23
