Install snet-cli

Using the shell.nix to get python and pip in scope:

nix-shell

NOTE: Pip is setup to install packages locally into the current working directory pip_packages.

HACK: The following is a bit of a workaround to the native packages grpcio and grpcio-tools work on NixOS / in a nix-shell.

Temporarily remove grpcio and grpcio-tools from shell.nix, reload shell and do install snet-cli with:

pip install snet-cli

Remove native packages from local pip_packages again (they won't work).

pip uninstall grpcio
pip uninstall grpcio-tools

Re-enable grpcio and grpcio-tools in shell.nix and reload shell.

Identity creation

Generate a new BIP39 mnemonic and write it down:

python -c "from mnemonic import Mnemonic; print(Mnemonic('english').generate())"

And use it to create and swithc to a new snet identity:

snet identity create user-ropsten mnemonic --mnemonic "YOUR MNEMONICS" --network ropsten
snet identity user-ropsten
snet account balance

Then, request ropsten testnet funds from these faucets:

• ETH from https://faucet.egorfine.com/
• AGIX from https://faucet.singularitynet.io/
