This snap ships the polkadot as a service for node operators.
Configure your polkadot service (written to /var/snap/polkadot/common/service-args):
sudo snap set polkadot service-args="--name=MyName --chain=polkadot"
Note: --base-path is always set by the snap to $SNAP_COMMON/polkadot_base and is not allowed to be configured.
Start the service with:
sudo snap start polkadot
Check logs from the Polkadot service:
snap logs polkadot -f
Make the snap not restart when upgraded/refreshed (very useful for validators).
sudo snap set polkadot endure=true
Note the Polkadot service will still be restarted as the result of changing service-args, etc.
