## Introduction
|
|
|
|
Grid3 Client is a client used for deploying workloads (VMs, ZDBs, k8s, etc.) on the TFGrid.
|
|
|
|
## Client Configurations
|
|
|
|
so you have to set up your configuration file to be like this:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"network": "dev",
|
|
"mnemonic": "<Your mnemonic>",
|
|
"storeSecret": "secret",
|
|
"ssh_key": ""
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Creating/Initializing The Grid3 Client
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
async function getClient(): Promise<GridClient> {
|
|
const gridClient = new GridClient({
|
|
network: "dev", // can be dev, qa, test, main, or custom
|
|
mnemonic: "<add your mnemonic here>",
|
|
});
|
|
await gridClient.connect();
|
|
|
|
return gridClient;
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The grid client uses `rmb-rs` tool to send requests to/from nodes.
|
|
|
|
## What is `rmb-rs` | Reliable Message Bus --rust
|
|
|
|
Reliable message bus is a secure communication panel that allows bots to communicate together in a chat like way. It makes it very easy to host a service or a set of functions to be used by anyone, even if your service is running behind NAT.
|
|
|
|
Out of the box RMB provides the following:
|
|
|
|
- Guarantee authenticity of the messages. You are always sure that the received message is from whoever is pretending to be
|
|
- End to End encryption
|
|
- Support for 3rd party hosted relays. Anyone can host a relay and people can use it safely since there is no way messages can be inspected while
|
|
using e2e. That's similar to home servers by matrix
|
|
|
|
## Grid3 Client Options
|
|
|
|
- network: `dev` for devnet, `test` for testnet
|
|
- mnemonics: used for signing the requests.
|
|
- storeSecret: used to encrypt data while storing in backend. It's any word that will be used for encrypting/decrypting the keys on threefold key-value store. If left empty, the Grid client will use the mnemonics as the storeSecret.
|
|
- BackendStorage : can be `auto` which willl automatically adapt if running in node environment to use `filesystem backend` or the browser enviornment to use `localstorage backend`. Also you can set it to `kvstore` to use the tfchain keyvalue store module.
|
|
- keypairType: is defaulted to `sr25519`, most likely you will never need to change it. `ed25519` is supported too.

> Note: The choice of the node is completely up to the user at this point. They need to do the capacity planning. Check [Node Finder](dashboard@@node_finder) to know which nodes fits your deployment criteria.
|
|
|
|
Check the document for [capacity planning using code](grid3_javascript_capacity_planning.md) if you want to automate it

> Note: this feature is still experimental
