#### Rust implemetation of ethereum client

Reth - ethereum client. Use with an ethereum consensus client, like lighthouse.

This example deployment assumes reth and lighthouse are both on localhost.

* Reth --datadir path: /mnt/reth/datadir

Start by installing reth:

```
 sudo snap install reth
```

Install and use with "lighthouse" to participate in the ethereum network.

```
 sudo snap install lighthouse
```

Check and change the configuration of reth and/or lighthouse to your liking:

```
 snap get lighthouse
 snap get reth
```

Change the location of the --datadir and allow the snap to access some external filsystems/dirs (see: snap interface removable-media)

```
 sudo snap connect reth:removable-media
 sudo snap set reth service-args='node --full --datadir /mnt/reth/datadir'
```

(Optionally) Set the snap to not restart after an automatic upgrade.

```
 sudo snap set reth endure=true
```

Start reth.

```
 sudo snap start reth
```

Copy the jwt.hex from where you set the reth --datadir -> lighthouse

```
 sudo cp /mnt/reth/datadir/jwt.hex /var/snap/lighthouse/common/
```

Start lighthouse:

```
 sudo snap start lighthouse
```

Check logs:

```
 sudo snap logs reth -f
 sudo snap logs lighthouse -f
```

Optionally, check the file-log in the snap location:

```
 sudo tail -f /root/snap/reth/current/.cache/reth/logs/mainnet/reth.log
```
