It is important that both public key
and address
are correct as they are immutable and cannot be changed in the future.
An easy way to generate a new private key is to use our CLI:
./dev/cli generate-key | jq
{
"level": "INFO",
"time": "2024-10-15T13:21:14.036-0400",
"message": "generated private key",
"private-key": "0x7d3cd4989b92c593db9a4b3ac1c2a5d542efad058b2a83e26c3467392b29c6f9",
"public-key": "0x03da53968d81f4eb3c9dd8b96617575767ec0cccbd28103b2cfd7f1511bb282d30",
"address": "0x9419db765e6b469edc028ffa72ba2944f2bad169"
}
If you already have a private key, you can extract the relevant public details via:
./dev/cli get-pub-key --private-key 0xa9b48d687f450ea99a5faaae1be096ddb49487cb28393d3906d7359ede6ea460 | jq
{
"level": "INFO",
"time": "2024-10-15T13:21:51.276-0400",
"message": "parsed private key",
"pub-key": "0x027a64295b98e48682cb77be1b990d4ecf8f1a86badf051df0af123e6fe3790e3f",
"address": "0x9419db765e6b469edc028ffa72ba2944f2bad169"
}

Before official testnet launch, only the members of @ephemerahq/backend can register nodes.
export XMTPD_CONTRACTS_RPC_URL="https://rpc-testnet-staging-88dqtxdinc.t.conduit.xyz/"
export XMTPD_CONTRACTS_CHAIN_ID=34498
export XMTPD_CONTRACTS_NODES_ADDRESS=<depends>
export PRIVATE_KEY=<secret>
dev/cli register-node \
--http-address=<node DNS> \
--node-owner-address=<node address> \
--admin-private-key=$PRIVATE_KEY \
--node-signing-key-pub=<node pub-key>
