PegaSys Orchestrate General Configuration

Introduction

Orchestrate is a set of configurable microservices following the Twelve-Factor App methodology.

Each microservice can be configured using environment variables or command line arguments. Command line arguments take precedence over environment variables. We can find specific configuration details on this section for each container.

Orchestrate can be connected to multiple Ethereum clients, you can use the ETH_CLIENT_URL environment variable to list URLs of Ethereum clients Orchestrate should use. On start up, Orchestrate will determine chain ids for each client URL and will use a corresponding URL when executing client’s transactions.

Quick-Start

Prerequisites

• Having docker installed, version 18.09 or upper;
• Having docker-compose installed, version 1.24.0 or upper; and
• Having Go installed, version 1.13 or upper.

Configure application

The application can be configured through flags or environment variables, you can run the help run command line:

go run . help run

Note

• Flags and their corresponding Environment variables share names, but change in format.
• Flags are always written in small letters and words are separated by -
• Environment variables are always written in caps and words are separated by _

Logging

By default the Orchestrate log is written to stdout in text format. To change the log levels or their formatting please check the documentation here.
