Tangle AVS: Quickstart Guide

The following is a guide outlining the steps to set up and utilize Tangle AVS (Actively Validated Services), allowing you to run a Tangle Validator on EigenLayer's network. Further explanation of the cross-chain mechanisms offered by Tangle AVS can be found in the Cross-Chain section.

For information on hardware requirements, see the Hardware section.

Ensure that you have everything necessary for running a Tangle node and have access to the necessary network configurations for EigenLayer or any other network you plan to connect to.

Setup

The AVS is designed to automatically handle as much of the setup process as possible, so that you can focus on running your Tangle node. Some specific configurations are in the midst of being implemented, and they will be added in a future update.

Usage

Clone the repository:

git clone

   git clone https://github.com/tangle-network/avs.git tangle-avs
   cd tangle-avs

Build:

cargo build

cargo build --release

Running Tests

If you would like to ensure the Tangle AVS works as you would expect, you can test it against local testnets. You can run the following command while a local Tangle testnet is running.

cargo test

RUST_LOG=gadget=trace cargo test test_full_tangle_avs -- --nocapture
