How to launch a Madara Full Node

Install dependencies

We first need to make sure you have everything needed to complete this tutorial.

Get code

Fetch the code from the Official Madara (opens in a new tab) repository in the folder of your choice.

cd <your-destination-path>
git clone https://github.com/madara-alliance/madara .

Build program

Then let's build the dependencies. You can choose between 3 different build modes:

• Debug (fastest build mode, but lower performances, for testing purpose only)

cargo build

• Release (the recommend build mode)

cargo build --release

• Production (the recommend build mode for production performances)

cargo build --profile=production

Run Madara

This command will start the Madara client with a basic set arguments synchronizing directly with Starknet mainnet. For further configuration we recommend you to head up to the Configure Your Node section down below.

    cargo run --release -- \
    --name Madara \
    --full
    --base-path /var/lib/madara \
    --network mainnet \
    --l1-endpoint ${ETHEREUM_API_URL}
