Validium
Recommendation
Follow the quickstart for a hands-on introduction to CDK in validium mode.
Note
- The documentation describes standard deployments.
- Edit the configuration files to implement your own custom setups.
Follow the steps below to deploy a CDK validium instance.
1. Deploy validium-specific contracts¶
Important
- Follow this step if you are deploying to a public testnet.
- For a local deploy, follow step 2 instead which deploys a local L1 network plus CDK contracts.
First, deploy the relevant contracts.
Follow the steps in the CDK validium contracts repository’s README.
2. Run the CDK validium node¶
Important
- If you are deploying to a public testnet, follow the previous step 1.
Next, set up and run the CDK validium node.
Follow the instructions in the CDK validium node repository’s README.
3. Run the data availability (DA) node (optional step)¶
Finally, once the CDK validium node is operational, set up and run the data availability node.
