NeoGo node configuration file

This section contains detailed NeoGo node configuration file description including default config values and some tips to set up configurable values.

Each config file contains two sections. ApplicationConfiguration describes node-related settings and ProtocolConfiguration contains protocol-related settings. See the Application Configuration and Protocol Configuration sections for details on configurable values.

Application Configuration

ApplicationConfiguration section of yaml node configuration file contains node-related settings described in the table below.

Section	Type	Default value	Description
DBConfiguration	DB Configuration		Describes configuration for database. See the DB Configuration section for details.
LogLevel	string	"info"	Minimal logged messages level (can be "debug", "info", "warn", "error", "dpanic", "panic" or "fatal").
GarbageCollectionPeriod	uint32	10000	Controls MPT garbage collection interval (in blocks) for configurations with RemoveUntraceableBlocks enabled and KeepOnlyLatestState disabled. In this mode the node stores a number of MPT trees (corresponding to MaxTraceableBlocks and StateSyncInterval), but the DB needs to be clean from old entries from time to time. Doing it too often will cause too much processing overhead, doing it too rarely will leave more useless data in the DB.
KeepOnlyLatestState	bool	false	Specifies if MPT should only store the latest state (or a set of latest states, see P2PStateExchangeExtensions section in the ProtocolConfiguration for details). If true, DB size will be smaller, but older roots won't be accessible. This value should remain the same for the same database.
LogPath	string	"", so only console logging	File path where to store node logs.
NeoFSBlockFetcher	NeoFS BlockFetcher Configuration		NeoFS BlockFetcher module configuration. See the NeoFS BlockFetcher Configuration section for details.
Oracle	Oracle Configuration		Oracle module configuration. See the Oracle Configuration section for details.
P2P	P2P Configuration		Configuration values for P2P network interaction. See the P2P Configuration section for details.
P2PNotary	P2P Notary Configuration		P2P Notary module configuration. See the P2P Notary Configuration section for details.
Pprof	Metrics Services Configuration		Configuration for pprof service (profiling statistics gathering). See the Metrics Services Configuration section for details.
Prometheus	Metrics Services Configuration		Configuration for Prometheus (monitoring system). See the Metrics Services Configuration section for details
Relay	bool	true	Determines whether the server is forwarding its inventory.
Consensus	Consensus Configuration		Describes consensus (dBFT) configuration. See the Consensus Configuration for details.
RemoveUntraceableBlocks	bool	false	Denotes whether old blocks should be removed from cache and database. If enabled, then only the last MaxTraceableBlocks are stored and accessible to smart contracts. Old MPT data is also deleted in accordance with GarbageCollectionPeriod setting. If enabled along with P2PStateExchangeExtensions protocol extension, then old blocks and MPT states will be removed up to the second latest state synchronisation point (see StateSyncInterval).
RemoveUntraceableHeaders	bool	false	Used only with RemoveUntraceableBlocks and makes node delete untraceable block headers as well. Notice that this is an experimental option, not recommended for production use.
RPC	RPC Configuration		Describes RPC subsystem configuration. See the RPC Configuration for details.
SaveStorageBatch	bool	false	Enables storage batch saving before every persist. It is similar to StorageDump plugin for C# node.
SkipBlockVerification	bool	false	Allows to disable verification of received/processed blocks (including cryptographic checks).
StateRoot	State Root Configuration		State root module configuration. See the State Root Configuration section for details.

P2P Configuration

P2P section contains configuration for peer-to-peer node communications and has the following format:

P2P:
  Addresses:
    - "0.0.0.0:0" # any free port on all available addresses (in form of "[host]:[port][:announcedPort]")
  AttemptConnPeers: 20
  BroadcastFactor: 0
  DialTimeout: 0s
  MaxPeers: 100
  MinPeers: 5
  PingInterval: 30s
  PingTimeout: 90s
  ProtoTickInterval: 5s
  ExtensiblePoolSize: 20

where:

• Addresses ([]string) is the list of the node addresses that P2P protocol handler binds to. Each address has the form of [address]:[nodePort][:announcedPort] where address is the address itself, nodePort is the actual P2P port node listens at; announcedPort is the node port which should be used to announce node's port on P2P layer, it can differ from the nodePort the node is bound to if specified (for example, if your node is behind NAT).
• AttemptConnPeers (int) is the number of connection to try to establish when the connection count drops below the MinPeers value.
• BroadcastFactor (int) is the multiplier that is used to determine the number of optimal gossip fan-out peer number for broadcasted messages (0-100). By default, it's zero, node uses the most optimized value depending on the estimated network size (2.5×log(size)), so the node may have 20 peers and calculate that it needs to broadcast messages to just 10 of them. With BroadcastFactor set to 100 it will always send messages to all peers, any value in-between 0 and 100 is used for weighted calculation, for example if it's 30 then 13 neighbors will be used in the previous case.
• DialTimeout (Duration) is the maximum duration a single dial may take.
• ExtensiblePoolSize (int) is the maximum amount of the extensible payloads from a single sender stored in a local pool.
• MaxPeers (int) is the maximum numbers of peers that can be connected to the server.
• MinPeers (int) is the minimum number of peers for normal operation; when the node has less than this number of peers it tries to connect with some new ones. Note that consensus node won't start the consensus process until at least MinPeers number of peers are connected.
• PingInterval (Duration) is the interval used in pinging mechanism for syncing blocks.
• PingTimeout (Duration) is the time to wait for pong (response for sent ping request).
• ProtoTickInterval (Duration) is the duration between protocol ticks with each connected peer.

DB Configuration

DBConfiguration section describes configuration for node database and has the following format:

DBConfiguration:
  Type: leveldb
  LevelDBOptions:
    DataDirectoryPath: /chains/privnet
    ReadOnly: false
  BoltDBOptions:
    FilePath: ./chains/privnet.bolt
    ReadOnly: false

where:

• Type is the database type (string value). Supported types: leveldb, boltdb and inmemory (not recommended for production usage).
• LevelDBOptions are settings for LevelDB. Includes the DB files path and ReadOnly mode toggle. If ReadOnly mode is on, then an error will be returned on attempt to connect to unexisting or empty database. Database doesn't allow changes in this mode, a warning will be logged on DB persist attempts.
• BoltDBOptions configures BoltDB. Includes the DB files path and ReadOnly mode toggle. If ReadOnly mode is on, then an error will be returned on attempt to connect with unexisting or empty database. Database doesn't allow changes in this mode, a warning will be logged on DB persist attempts.

Only options for the specified database type will be used.

Oracle Configuration

Oracle configuration section describes configuration for Oracle node module and has the following structure:

Oracle:
  Enabled: false
  AllowPrivateHost: false
  MaxTaskTimeout: 3600s
  MaxConcurrentRequests: 10
  Nodes: ["172.200.0.1:30333", "172.200.0.2:30334"]
  NeoFS:
    Nodes: ["172.200.0.1:30335", "172.200.0.2:30336"]
    Timeout: 2
  RefreshInterval: 180s
  RequestTimeout: 5s
  ResponseTimeout: 5s
  UnlockWallet:
    Path: "./oracle_wallet.json"
    Password: "pass"

P2PNotary:
  Enabled: false
  UnlockWallet:
    Path: "/notary_wallet.json"
    Password: "pass"

where:

• Enabled denotes whether P2P Notary module is active.
• UnlockWallet is a Notary node wallet configuration, see the Unlock Wallet Configuration section for structure details.

    BlockAttribute: "Block"
    IndexFileAttribute: "Index"
    IndexFileSize: 128000

where:

• Enabled enables NeoFS BlockFetcher module.
• UnlockWallet contains wallet settings to retrieve account to sign requests to NeoFS. Without this setting, the module will use randomly generated private key. For configuration details see Unlock Wallet Configuration
• Addresses is a list of NeoFS storage nodes addresses. This parameter is required.
• Timeout is a timeout for a single request to NeoFS storage node (10 minutes by default).
• ContainerID is a container ID to fetch blocks from. This parameter is required.
• BlockAttribute is an attribute name of NeoFS object that contains block data. It's set to Block by default.
• IndexFileAttribute is an attribute name of NeoFS index object that contains block object IDs. It's set to Index by default.
• DownloaderWorkersCount is a number of workers that download blocks from NeoFS in parallel (500 by default).
• OIDBatchSize is the number of blocks to search per a single request to NeoFS in case of disabled index files search. Also, for both modes of BlockFetcher operation this setting manages the buffer size of OIDs and blocks transferring channels. By default, it's set to a half of BQueueSize parameter.
• BQueueSize is a size of the block queue used to manage consecutive blocks addition to the chain. It must be larger than OIDBatchSize and highly recommended to be 2*OIDBatchSize or 3*OIDBatchSize. By default, it's set to 16000.
• SkipIndexFilesSearch is a flag that allows to skip index files search and search for blocks directly. It is set to false by default.
• IndexFileSize is the number of OID objects stored in the index files. This setting depends on the NeoFS block storage configuration and is applicable only if SkipIndexFilesSearch is set to false. It's set to 128000 by default.

Metrics Services Configuration

Metrics services configuration describes options for metrics services (pprof, Prometheus) and has the following structure:

Pprof:
  Enabled: false
  Addresses:
    - ":30001"
Prometheus:
  Enabled: false
  Addresses:
    - ":40001"

where:

• Enabled denotes whether the service is enabled.
• Addresses is a list of service addresses to be running at and listen to in the form of "host:port".

RPC Configuration

RPC configuration section describes settings for the RPC server and has the following structure:

RPC:
  Enabled: true
  Addresses:
    - ":10332"
  EnableCORSWorkaround: false
  MaxGasInvoke: 50
  MaxIteratorResultItems: 100
  MaxFindResultItems: 100
  MaxFindStoragePageSize: 50
  MaxNEP11Tokens: 100
  MaxRequestBodyBytes: 5242880
  MaxRequestHeaderBytes: 1048576
  MaxWebSocketClients: 64
  SessionEnabled: false
  SessionExpirationTime: 15
  SessionBackedByMPT: false
  SessionPoolSize: 20
  StartWhenSynchronized: false
  TLSConfig:
    Addresses:
      - ":10331"
    CertFile: serv.crt
    Enabled: true
    KeyFile: serv.key

where:

• Enabled denotes whether an RPC server should be started.
• Addresses is a list of RPC server addresses to be running at and listen to in the form of "host:port".
• EnableCORSWorkaround turns on a set of origin-related behaviors that make RPC server wide open for connections from any origins. It enables OPTIONS request handling for pre-flight CORS and makes the server send Access-Control-Allow-Origin and Access-Control-Allow-Headers headers for regular HTTP requests (allowing any origin which effectively makes CORS useless). It also makes websocket connections work for any Origin specified in the request header. This option is not recommended (reverse proxy can be used to have proper app-specific CORS settings), but it's an easy way to make RPC interface accessible from the browser.
• MaxGasInvoke is the maximum GAS allowed to spend during invokefunction and invokescript RPC-calls. calculatenetworkfee also can't exceed this GAS amount (normally the limit for it is MaxVerificationGAS from Policy, but if MaxGasInvoke is lower than that then this limit is respected).
• MaxIteratorResultItems - maximum number of elements extracted from iterator returned by invoke* call. When the MaxIteratorResultItems value is set to n, only n iterations are returned and truncated is true, indicating that there is still data to be returned.
• MaxFindResultItems - the maximum number of elements for findstates response.
• MaxFindStoragePageSize - the maximum number of elements for findstorage response per single page.
• MaxNEP11Tokens - limit for the number of tokens returned from getnep11balances call.
• MaxRequestBodyBytes - the maximum allowed HTTP request body size in bytes (5MB by default).
• MaxRequestHeaderBytes - the maximum allowed HTTP request header size in bytes (1MB by default).
• MaxWebSocketClients - the maximum simultaneous websocket client connection number (64 by default). Attempts to establish additional connections will lead to websocket handshake failures. Use "-1" to disable websocket connections (0 will lead to using the default value).
• SessionEnabled denotes whether session-based iterator JSON-RPC API is enabled. If true, then all iterators got from invoke* calls will be stored as sessions on the server side available for further traverse. traverseiterator and terminatesession JSON-RPC calls will be handled by the server. It is not recommended to enable this setting for public RPC servers due to possible DoS attack. Set to false by default. If false, iterators are expanded into a set of values (see MaxIteratorResultItems setting). Implementation note: when BoltDB storage is used as a node backend DB, then enabling iterator sessions may cause blockchain persist delays up to 2*SessionExpirationTime seconds on early blockchain lifetime stages with relatively small DB size. It can happen due to BoltDB re-mmapping behaviour traits. If regular persist is a critical requirement, then we recommend either to decrease SessionExpirationTime or to enable SessionBackedByMPT, see SessionBackedByMPT documentation for more details.
• SessionExpirationTime is a lifetime of iterator session in seconds. It is set to TimePerBlock seconds (but not less than 5s) by default and is relevant only if SessionEnabled is set to true.
• SessionBackedByMPT is a flag forcing JSON-RPC server into using MPT-backed storage for delayed iterator traversal. If true, then iterator resources got after invoke* calls will be released immediately. Further iterator traversing will be performed using MPT-backed storage by retrieving iterator via historical MPT-provided invoke* recall. SessionBackedByMPT set to true strongly affects the traverseiterator call performance and doesn't allow iterator traversing for outdated or removed states (see KeepOnlyLatestState and RemoveUntraceableBlocks settings documentation for details), thus, it is not recommended to enable SessionBackedByMPT needlessly. SessionBackedByMPT is set to false by default and is relevant only if SessionEnabled is set to true.
• SessionPoolSize is the maximum number of concurrent iterator sessions. It is set to 20 by default. If the subsequent session can't be added to the session pool, then invocation result will contain corresponding error inside the FaultException field.
• StartWhenSynchronized controls when RPC server will be started, by default (false setting) it's started immediately and RPC is available during node synchronization. Setting it to true will make the node start RPC service only after full synchronization.
• TLS section configures TLS protocol.

State Root Configuration

StateRoot configuration section contains settings for state roots exchange and has the following structure:

StateRoot:
  Enabled: false
  UnlockWallet:
    Path: "./wallet.json"
    Password: "pass"

where:

• Enabled enables state root module.
• UnlockWallet contains wallet settings, see Unlock Wallet Configuration section for structure details.

Consensus Configuration

Consensus configuration section describes configuration for dBFT node module and has the following structure:

Consensus:
  Enabled: false
  UnlockWallet:
    Path: "/consensus_node_wallet.json"
    Password: "pass"

where:

• Enabled denotes whether dBFT module is active.
• UnlockWallet is a consensus node wallet configuration, see the Unlock Wallet Configuration section for structure details.

Please, refer to the consensus node documentation for more details on consensus node setup.

Unlock Wallet Configuration

UnlockWallet configuration section contains wallet settings and has the following structure:

UnlockWallet:
  Path: "./wallet.json"

Protocol Configuration

ProtocolConfiguration section of yaml node configuration file contains protocol-related settings described in the table below.

Section	Type	Default value	Description	Notes
CommitteeHistory	map[uint32]uint32	none	Number of committee members after the given height, for example {0: 1, 20: 4} sets up a chain with one committee member since the genesis and then changes the setting to 4 committee members at the height of 20. StandbyCommittee committee setting must have the number of keys equal or exceeding the highest value in this option. Blocks numbers where the change happens must be divisible by the old and by the new values simultaneously. If not set, committee size is derived from the StandbyCommittee setting and never changes.
Genesis	Genesis	none	The set of genesis block settings including NeoGo-specific protocol extensions that should be enabled at the genesis block or during native contracts initialisation.
Hardforks	map[string]uint32	[]	The set of incompatible changes that affect node behaviour starting from the specified height. The default value is an empty set which should be interpreted as "each known stable hard-fork is applied from the zero blockchain height". See Hardforks section for a list of supported keys.
Magic	uint32	0	Magic number which uniquely identifies Neo network.
MaxBlockSize	uint32	262144	Maximum block size in bytes.
MaxBlockSystemFee	int64	900000000000	Maximum overall transactions system fee per block.
MaxTraceableBlocks	uint32	2102400	Length of the chain accessible to smart contracts.	RemoveUntraceableBlocks should be enabled to use this setting.
MaxTransactionsPerBlock	uint16	512	Maximum number of transactions per block.
MaxValidUntilBlockIncrement	uint32	5760	Upper height increment limit for transaction's ValidUntilBlock field value relative to the current blockchain height, exceeding which a transaction will fail validation. It is set to estimated daily number of blocks with 15s interval by default.
MemPoolSize	int	50000	Size of the node's memory pool where transactions are stored before they are added to block.
P2PNotaryRequestPayloadPoolSize	int	1000	Size of the node's P2P Notary request payloads memory pool where P2P Notary requests are stored before main or fallback transaction is completed and added to the chain. This option is valid only if P2PSigExtensions are enabled.	Not supported by the C# node, thus may affect heterogeneous networks functionality.
P2PSigExtensions	bool	false	Enables following additional Notary service related logic: • Transaction attribute NotaryAssisted • Network payload of the P2PNotaryRequest type • Native Notary contract • Notary node module	Not supported by the C# node, thus may affect heterogeneous networks functionality.
P2PStateExchangeExtensions	bool	false	Enables the following P2P MPT state data exchange logic: • StateSyncInterval protocol setting • P2P commands GetMPTDataCMD and MPTDataCMD	Not supported by the C# node, thus may affect heterogeneous networks functionality. Can be supported either on MPT-complete node (KeepOnlyLatestState=false) or on light GC-enabled node (RemoveUntraceableBlocks=true) in which case KeepOnlyLatestState setting doesn't change the behavior, an appropriate set of MPTs is always stored (see RemoveUntraceableBlocks).
ReservedAttributes	bool	false	Allows to have reserved attributes range for experimental or private purposes.
SeedList	[]string	[]	List of initial nodes addresses used to establish connectivity.
StandbyCommittee	[]string	[]	List of public keys of standby committee validators are chosen from.	The list of keys is not required to be sorted, but it must be exactly the same within the configuration files of all the nodes in the network.
StateRootInHeader	bool	false	Enables storing state root in block header.	Experimental protocol extension!
StateSyncInterval	int	40000	The number of blocks between state heights available for MPT state data synchronization.	P2PStateExchangeExtensions should be enabled to use this setting.
TimePerBlock	Duration	15s	Minimal (and targeted for) time interval between blocks. Must be an integer number of milliseconds.
ValidatorsCount	uint32	0	Number of validators set for the whole network lifetime, can't be set if ValidatorsHistory setting is used.
ValidatorsHistory	map[uint32]uint32	none	Number of consensus nodes to use after given height (see CommitteeHistory also). Heights where the change occurs must be divisible by the number of committee members at that height. Can't be used with ValidatorsCount not equal to zero. Initial validators count for genesis block must always be specified.
VerifyTransactions	bool	false	Denotes whether to verify transactions in the received blocks.

Genesis Configuration

Genesis subsection of protocol configuration section contains a set of settings specific for genesis block including NeoGo node extensions that should be enabled during genesis block persist or at the moment of native contracts initialisation. Genesis has the following structure:

Genesis:
  Roles:
    NeoFSAlphabet:
      - 033238fa63bd08115ebf442d4af897eea2f6866e4c2001cd1f6e7656acdd91a5d3
      - 03b209fd4f53a7170ea4444e0cb0a6bb6a53c2bd016926989cf85f9b0fba17a70c
      - 02aaec38470f6aad0042c6e877cfd8087d2676b0f516fddd362801b9bd3936399e
      - 03c6aa6e12638b36e88adc1ccdceac4db9929575c3e03576c617c49cce7114a050
    Oracle:
      - 03409f31f0d66bdc2f70a9730b66fe186658f84a8018204db01c106edc36553cd0
      - 0222038884bbd1d8ff109ed3bdef3542e768eef76c1247aea8bc8171f532928c30
  Transaction:
    Script: "DCECEDp/fdAWVYWX95YNJ8UWpDlP2Wi55lFV60sBPkBAQG5BVuezJw=="
    SystemFee: 100000000

where:

• Roles is a map from node roles that should be set at the moment of native RoleManagement contract initialisation to the list of hex-encoded public keys corresponding to this role. The set of valid roles includes:

  • StateValidator
  • Oracle
  • NeoFSAlphabet
  • P2PNotary

  Roles designation order follows the enumeration above. Designation notifications will be emitted after each configured role designation.

  Note that Roles is a NeoGo extension that isn't supported by the NeoC# node and must be disabled on the public Neo N3 networks. Roles extension is compatible with Hardforks setting, which means that specified roles will be set only during native RoleManagement contract initialisation (which may be performed in some non-genesis hardfork). By default, no roles are designated.

• Transaction is a container for transaction script that should be deployed in the genesis block if provided. Transaction includes Script which is a base64-encoded transaction script and SystemFee which is a transaction's system fee value (in GAS) that will be spent during transaction execution. Transaction generated from the provided parameters has two signers at max with CalledByEntry witness scope: the first one is standby validators multisignature signer and the second one (if differs from the first) is committee multisignature signer.

  Note that Transaction is a NeoGo extension that isn't supported by the NeoC# node and must be disabled on the public Neo N3 networks.

Hardforks

The latest stable hardfork as per 0.107.1 release is Domovoi. Echidna is still in development and can change in an incompatible way.

Name	Changes	References
Aspidochelone	Adjusts the price of System.Contract.CreateStandardAccount and System.Contract.CreateMultisigAccount interops so that the resulting prices are in accordance with sha256 method of native CryptoLib contract. Also adjusts the price of System.Runtime.GetRandom interop and fixes its vulnerability. A special NeoGo-specific change is included as well for ContractManagement's update/deploy call flags behaviour to be compatible with pre-0.99.0 behaviour that was changed because of the 3.2.0 protocol change	https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/2469 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/2712 https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/2519 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/2749 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/2653
Basilisk	Enables strict smart contract script check against a set of JMP instructions and against method boundaries enabled on contract deploy or update. Increases stackitem.Integer JSON parsing precision up to the maximum value supported by the NeoVM. Enables strict check for notifications emitted by a contract to precisely match the events specified in the contract manifest.	https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3056 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/2881 https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3080 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/2883 https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3085 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/2810
Cockatrice	Introduces the ability to update native contracts. Includes a couple of new native smart contract APIs: keccak256 of native CryptoLib contract and getCommitteeAddress of native NeoToken contract.	https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3402 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/2942 https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3301 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/2925 https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3362 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/3154
Domovoi	Makes node use executing contract state for the contract call permissions check instead of the state stored in the native Management contract. In C# also makes System.Runtime.GetNotifications interop properly count stack references of notification parameters which prevents users from creating objects that exceed MaxStackSize constraint, but NeoGo has never had this bug, thus proper behaviour is preserved even before HFDomovoi. It results in the fact that some T5 testnet transactions have different ApplicationLogs compared to the C# node, but the node states match.	https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3476 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/3290 https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3473 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/3290 https://github.com/neo-project/neo/pull/3301 https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3485
Echidna	No changes for now	https://github.com/nspcc-dev/neo-go/pull/3554

DB compatibility

Real networks with large number of blocks require a substantial amount of time to synchronize. When operating a number of node instances with similar configurations you may want to save some resources by performing synchronization on one node and then copying the DB over to other instances. In general, this can be done and this is supported, but NeoGo has a lot of options that may affect this:

• any differences in ProtocolConfiguration section make (or may make) databases incompatible, except for MemPoolSize, P2PNotaryRequestPayloadPoolSize, SeedList, TimePerBlock. Protocol configuration is expected to be the same on all nodes of the same network, so don't touch it unless you know what you're doing.
• DB types (Level/Bolt) must be the same
• GarbageCollectionPeriod must be the same
• KeepOnlyLatestState must be the same
• RemoveUntraceableBlocks must be the same

BotlDB is also known to be incompatible between machines with different endianness. Nothing is known for LevelDB wrt this, so it's not recommended to copy it this way too.
