Set up the developer environment

Initiate Tahoe-LAFS servers (one introducer, two storage servers and a client server):

Introducer server:

.venv/bin/tahoe create-introducer --listen=tcp --port=5555 --location=tcp:localhost:5555 ./introducer
.venv/bin/tahoe -d introducer run &>/dev/null &

Two storage servers:

.venv/bin/tahoe create-node --introducer $(cat introducer/private/introducer.furl) --nickname storage0 --webport 6001 --location tcp:localhost:6003 --port 6003 ./storage0
.venv/bin/tahoe create-node --introducer $(cat introducer/private/introducer.furl) --nickname storage1 --webport 6101 --location tcp:localhost:6103 --port 6103 ./storage1
.venv/bin/tahoe -d storage0 run &>/dev/null &
.venv/bin/tahoe -d storage1 run &>/dev/null &

Client:

.venv/bin/tahoe create-client --introducer $(cat introducer/private/introducer.furl) --nickname webapp --webport 6401 --shares-total=3 --shares-needed=2 --shares-happy=3 ./webapp
.venv/bin/tahoe -d webapp run &>/dev/null &

The commands should return four PIDs. Note them down to kill them later, when finished, with:

kill -9 <PID>
