-# Basic ETH price prediction node
+# Basic ETH Price Prediction Node
 
-Example Allora network worker node: a node to provide price predictions of ETH.
+This repository provides an example Allora network worker node, designed to offer price predictions for ETH. The primary objective is to demonstrate the use of a basic inference model running within a dedicated container, showcasing its integration with the Allora network infrastructure to contribute valuable inferences.
 
-One of the primary objectives is to demonstrate the utilization of a basic inference model operating within a dedicated container. The purpose is to showcase its seamless integration with the Allora network infrastructure, enabling it to contribute with valuable inferences.
+## Components
 
-### Components
+- **Worker**: The node that publishes inferences to the Allora chain.
+- **Inference**: A container that conducts inferences, maintains the model state, and responds to internal inference requests via a Flask application. This node operates with a basic linear regression model for price predictions.
+- **Updater**: A cron-like container designed to update the inference node's data by daily fetching the latest market information from Binance, ensuring the model stays current with new market trends.
 
-* **Head**: An Allora network head node. This is not required for running your node in the Allora network, but it will help for testing your node emulating a network.
-* **Worker**: The node that will respond to inference requests from the Allora network heads.

+Check the `docker-compose.yml` file for the detailed setup of each component.
 
-Check the `docker-compose.yml` file to see the separate components.
+## Docker-Compose Setup
 
-### Inference request flow
+A complete working example is provided in the `docker-compose.yml` file.
 
-When a request is made to the head, it relays this request to several workers associated with this head. The request specifies a function to run which will execute a wasm code that will call the `main.py` file in the worker. The worker will check the argument (the coin to predict for), make a request to the `inference` node, and return this value to the `head`, which prepares the response from all of its nodes and sends it back to the requestor.
+### Steps to Setup
 
-# Docker Setup
+1. **Clone the Repository**
+2. **Copy and Populate Configuration**
+    
+    Copy the example configuration file and populate it with your variables:
+    ```sh
+    cp config.example.json config.json
+    ```
 
-- head and worker nodes are built upon `Dockerfile_b7s` file. This file is functional but simple, so you may want to change it to fit your needs, if you attempt to expand upon the current setup.
-For further details, please check the base repo [allora-inference-base](https://github.com/allora-network/allora-inference-base).
-- inference and updater nodes are built with `Dockerfile`. This works as an example of how to reuse your current model containers, just by setting up a Flask web application in front with minimal integration work with the Allora network nodes.
+3. **Initialize Worker**
+    
+    Run the following commands from the project's root directory to initialize the worker:
+    ```sh
+    chmod +x init.docker
+    ./init.docker
+    ```
+    These commands will:
+    - Automatically create Allora keys for your worker.
+    - Export the needed variables from the created account to be used by the worker node, bundle them with your provided `config.json`, and pass them to the node as environment variables.
 
-###  Application path
+4. **Faucet Your Worker Node**
+    
+    You can find the offchain worker node's address in `./worker-data/env_file` under `ALLORA_OFFCHAIN_ACCOUNT_ADDRESS`. [Add faucet funds](https://docs.allora.network/devs/get-started/setup-wallet#add-faucet-funds) to your worker's wallet before starting it.
 
-By default, the application runtime lives under `/app`, as well as the Python code the worker provides (`/app/main.py`). The current user needs to have write permissions on `/app/runtime`.
+5. **Start the Services**
+    
+    Run the following command to start the worker node, inference, and updater nodes:
+    ```sh
+    docker compose up --build
+    ```
+    To confirm that the worker successfully sends the inferences to the chain, look for the following log:
+    ```
+    {"level":"debug","msg":"Send Worker Data to chain","txHash":<tx-hash>,"time":<timestamp>,"message":"Success"}
+    ```
 
-### Data volume and permissions
+## Testing Inference Only
 
-It is recommended to mount the `/worker-data` and `/head-data` folders as volumes, to persist the node databases of peers, functions, etc. which are defined in the flags passed to the worker.
-You can create two different `/data` volumes. It is suggested to use `worker-data` for the worker, `head-data` for the head:
-`mkdir worker-data && mkdir heaed-data`.
+This setup allows you to develop your model without the need to bring up the head and worker. To test the inference model only:
 
-Troubleshooting: A conflict may happen between the uid/gid of the user inside the container(1001) with the permissions of your own user.
-To make the container user have permissions to write on the `/data` volume, you may need to set the UID/GID from the user running the container. You can get those in linux/osx via `id -u` and `id -g`.
-The current `docker-compose.yml` file shows the `worker` service setting UID and GID. As well, the `Dockerfile` also sets UID/GID values.
+1. Run the following command to start the inference node:
+    ```sh
+    docker compose up --build inference
+    ```
+    Wait for the initial data load.
 
-
-# Docker-Compose Setup
-A full working example is provided in the `docker-compose.yml` file.
-
-1. **Generate keys**: Create a set of keys for your head and worker nodes. These keys will be used in the configuration of the head and worker nodes.
-
-**Create head keys:**
-```
-docker run -it --entrypoint=bash -v ./head-data:/data alloranetwork/allora-inference-base:latest -c "mkdir -p /data/keys && (cd /data/keys && allora-keys)"
-```
-
-**Create worker keys**
-```
-docker run -it --entrypoint=bash -v ./worker-data:/data alloranetwork/allora-inference-base:latest -c "mkdir -p /data/keys && (cd /data/keys && allora-keys)"
-```
-
-Important note: If no keys are specified in the volumes, new keys will be automatically created inside `head-data/keys` and `worker-data/keys` when first running step 3.
-
-2. **Connect the worker node to the head node**:
-
-At this step, both worker and head nodes identities are generated inside `head-data/keys` and `worker-data/keys`.
-To instruct the worker node to connect to the head node:
-- run `cat head-data/keys/identity` to extract the head node's peer_id specified in the `head-data/keys/identity`
-- use the printed peer_id to replace the `{HEAD-ID}` placeholder value specified inside the docker-compose.yml file when running the worker service: `--boot-nodes=/ip4/172.22.0.100/tcp/9010/p2p/{HEAD-ID}`
-
-3. **Run setup**
-Once all the above is set up, run `docker compose up --build`
-This will bring up the head, the worker and the inference nodes (which will run an initial update). The `updater` node is a companion for updating the inference node state and it's meant to hit the /update endpoint on the inference service. It is expected to run periodically, being crucial for maintaining the accuracy of the inferences.
-
-## Testing docker-compose setup
-
-The head node has the only open port and responds to requests in port 6000.
-
-Example request:
-```
-curl --location 'http://127.0.0.1:6000/api/v1/functions/execute' \
---header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
---data '{
-    "function_id": "bafybeigpiwl3o73zvvl6dxdqu7zqcub5mhg65jiky2xqb4rdhfmikswzqm",

-## Testing inference only
-This setup allows to develop your model without the need for bringing up the head and worker.
-To only test the inference model, you can just:
-- Run `docker compose up --build inference` and wait for the initial data load.
-- Requests can now be sent, e.g. request ETH price inferences as in: 
-  ```
-    $ curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/inference/ETH
+2. Send requests to the inference model. For example, request ETH price inferences:
+    
+    ```sh
+    curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/inference/ETH
+    ```
+    Expected response:
+    ```json
     {"value":"2564.021586281073"}
-  ```
-  or update the node's internal state (download pricing data, train and update the model):
-  ```
-    $ curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/update
+    ```
+
+3. Update the node's internal state (download pricing data, train, and update the model):
+    
+    ```sh
+    curl http://127.0.0.1:8000/update
+    ```
+    Expected response:
+    ```sh
     0
-  ```
-
-## Connecting to the Allora network
- To connect to the Allora network to provide inferences, both the head and the worker need to register against it. More details on [allora-inference-base](https://github.com/allora-network/allora-inference-base) repo.
-The following optional flags are used in the `command:` section of the `docker-compose.yml` file to define the connectivity with the Allora network.
-
-```
---allora-chain-key-name=index-provider  # your local key name in your keyring
---allora-chain-restore-mnemonic='pet sock excess ...'  # your node's Allora address mnemonic
---allora-node-rpc-address=  # RPC address of a node in the chain
---allora-chain-topic-id=  # The topic id from the chain that you want to provide predictions for
-```
-For the nodes to register with the chain, a funded address is needed first.
-If these flags are not provided, the nodes will not register to the appchain and will not attempt to connect to the appchain.
