Devcon VI Workshop - Spin it up

02: Spin up your own validator with teku client

This section assumes you've walked through the previous tutorial on how to generate keys, deposit and configure and run lighthouse validator client.

1. Generate keys + 2. Make a deposit

The process to generate keys and making a deposit is validator client agnostic, therefore we can walk through the same steps. For this exercise we will re-use the same key we used previously.

3. Setup infrastructure to run our validator

3.1 Pick a validator client- this time will pick Teku

Install

docker pull consensys/teku:latest

Test

docker run consensys/teku:latest --help

Further installation info follow the teku docs.

3.2. Configure validator client

Remember that we're taking a short-cut since we're connecting to an already synced execution client and beacon node, therefore we only need to configure our validator client.

3.3. Start validator client

docker run -p 5051:5051 -v /PATH_TO_YOUR_DIRECTORY/validator/keys/:/validator/keys -v /PATH_TO_YOUR_DIRECTORY/validator/passwords/:/validator/passwords consensys/teku:latest validator-client \
    --beacon-node-api-endpoint=https://temp-hackathon:[email protected] \
    --validators-proposer-default-fee-recipient=0x000000000000000000000000000000000000dead \
    --validator-keys=/validator/keys:/validator/passwords

4. Watch your validator participate in consensus

  • Go to beaconcha.in and find your validator
  • Look out for successful attestations
