./bin/ramble-cli.sh -f /tmp/ramble-messages.txt
This creates one instance of the RAMBLE service that uses port 5000 for a Gossip membership service, and port 6000 for a message sync service. It does not connect to any peers. All received messages will be dumped to the file /tmp/ramble-messages.txt
To launch a RAMBLE service that connects to pre-existing peers, run the following command:
./bin/ramble-cli.sh -f /tmp/ramble-messages-2.txt -p ramble://[ip-address-of-first-node]:5000 -u 5001 -b ramble://[ip-address-of-first-node]:6000 -mm 6001
The value of ip-address-of-first-node can be find from the ramble.log file of the first node.
This creates another instance of the RAMBLE service with peer ramble://[ip-address-of-first-node]:5000, and it uses port 5001 for Gossip and port 6001 for message-sync.
When the RAMBLE service starts up, the CLI will have a prompt that looks like:
Post Message:
Type in a message and press ENTER to post a message.
All service logs are printed to the file ramble.log.
