$ go build
$ ./filegen -stake-type direct -node-price 2500000000000000000000 -total-supply 20000000000000000000000000 -num-of-shards 3 -num-of-nodes-in-each-shard 7 -consensus-group-size 5 -num-of-observers-in-each-shard 1 -num-of-metachain-nodes 7 -metachain-consensus-group-size 7 -num-of-observers-in-metachain 1 -hysteresis 0.2

To run in "delegated" staking mode, please run this:

$ go build
$ ./filegen -stake-type delegated -node-price 2500000000000000000000 -total-supply 20000000000000000000000000 -num-of-shards 3 -num-of-nodes-in-each-shard 7 -consensus-group-size 5 -num-of-observers-in-each-shard 1 -num-of-metachain-nodes 7 -metachain-consensus-group-size 7 -num-of-observers-in-metachain 1 -hysteresis 0.2 -num-delegators 1293

In the "delegated" mode the initial staking will be done through the delegation SC. When set to "delegated" mode, there are 2 optional flags delegation-init for setting a custom init string and delegation-version for setting the correspondent delegation SC version.

Important:

If the hysteresis value is greater than 0, the binary will add more nodes as validators in order to compensate for the nodes in the waiting list.

Notes:

The optional flag called -richest-account can be used in order to increase the first wallet key to almost all available balance left after the staking process occurred. This is helpful when dealing with automated staking scenarios.

Running with docker

$ docker pull multiversx/mx-chain-filegen:tagname
$ docker run -v /tmp/:/data/ multiversx/mx-chain-filegen:latest -stake-type direct -node-price 2500000000000000000000 -total-supply 20000000000000000000000000 -num-of-shards 3 ...

This will create the files on the host machine running Docker at the path location /tmp/. Detailed information about the build is located under https://hub.docker.com/r/multiversx/mx-chain-filegen
