Let's hardwire default paths to Gaia.

[NodeGuy]

#748 builds Gaia binaries into builds/gaia. If BINARY_PATH and NODE_BINARY_PATH aren't set then let's have Voyager look for them there, or even better let's hardwire the paths and get rid of BINARY_PATH and NODE_BINARY_PATH.

Do we want devs to be able to overwrite the paths for some reasons? David Braun <[email protected]> schrieb am Fr., 1. Juni 2018, 21:34:

I can't think of a reason. If a dev wants to use a different version of Gaia then he could specify a different version to be built.

The fewer configuration flags the better, I support this idea.

i'd like us to revisit this!

[faboweb]

What do you mean? What do you propose?

[jbibla]

to run voyager i have to use this command:

BINARY_PATH=builds/Gaia/darwin_amd64/gaiacli NODE_BINARY_PATH=builds/Gaia/darwin_amd64/gaiad yarn testnet

but i'd like to be able to use this command:

yarn testnet

i think we're defaulting to local gaia instead of the gaia we're building with yarn build:gaia.

👍 OK I got it. This should be an easy fix. The code handling the path is here: https://github.com/cosmos/voyager/blob/develop/app/src/main/index.js#L171

I am sorry to bring this up again. But currently we the situation that some issues work on are on an old SDK version while others are on a newer SDK version. Having fixed paths for the binary would remove the ability to switch quickly between two SDK versions. Therefor I strongly disagree with getting rid of the binary path environment variables.

I thought this was w regard to letting the default gaia path point to the app-specific build, but still allowing setting the path explicitly for the scenario @faboweb outlined

[faboweb]

Then I got this wrong. Let's do it like that. :) Thank you for clarifying. billy rennekamp <[email protected]> schrieb am Do., 12. Juli 2018, 13:36:
