I am following the instruction at https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-node/blob/master/docs/source/start-nodes.md

My OS is Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS.

I have managed to install indy-node by following

sudo apt-key adv --keyserver keyserver.ubuntu.com --recv-keys CE7709D068DB5E88
sudo bash -c 'echo "deb https://repo.sovrin.org/deb xenial stable" >> /etc/apt/sources.list'
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install indy-node

Now at step2, it says:

set Network name in config file
the location of the config depends on how a Node was installed. It's usually inside /etc/indy for Ubuntu.
the following needs to be added: NETWORK_NAME={network_name} where {network_name} matches the one in genesis transaction files above

I am confused as the document never mentioned any "genesis transaction files" above. So I decide to set NETWORK_NAME = sandbox in my case.

Now I start to generate keys with command init_indy_node Alpha 0.0.0.0 9701 0.0.0.0 9702 --seed 111111111111111111111111111Alpha, and I get the error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    spec.loader.exec_module(config)
  File "/etc/indy/indy_config.py", line 2, in <module>
    NETWORK_NAME = sandbox
NameError: name 'sandbox' is not defined

Can anyone help to create node keys and init them.

I have referred to Hyperledger Indy: Create genesis transaction file and looks like my problem is prior to this.

I have also tried von-network and I am able to start the network in docker image.

The only problem is I am not able to generate my own keys.

Thanks

OK.. Looks like I have found the reason: the indy_config file is actually a .py file, not a "pure" config file like json or yml, I need to add ' for the NETWORK_NAME
