Polkadot

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 $SNAPCOMMON/polkadotbase 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.
