> How to Bake with Peak GUI

+ +
+ + + + + + + + + + + + + +
+

Preparation

+

For this tutorial, you’ll need to have already followed one of the following tutorials:

+ +

The TezPeak GUI is a graphical user interface for TezBake, which is a command-line tool for baking and endorsing Tezos blocks. It’s a great way to get started with baking and endorsing without having to use the command line on a day-to-day basis.

+
+

Installation

+

Download and install TezPeak via TezBake

+
tezbake setup --peak
+

Setup Peak Configuration

+
```
+cd /bake-buddy/peak/ && touch config.hjson
+```
+
+

Open the config.hjson file with your favorite text editor.

+

Here’s an example of a config.hjson file:

+
```hjson
+{
+    id: BakingBenjamins
+    listen: "0.0.0.0:8733"
+    bakers: [
+    	tz1S5WxdZR5f9NzsPXhr7L9L1vrEb5spZFur
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+

This configuration file names the baker “BakingBenjamins”, listens to anyone trying to connect to the TezPeak GUI web interface on port 8733, and specifies the baker’s address.

+
+

Change id: to have your baker’s name and bakers: to have your baker’s address.

+
+

You can also make TezPeak GUI only available on the local computer if you have an all-in-one setup (i.e. the baker and the GUI are on the same computer which has a graphical user interface):

+
```hjson
+{
+    id: BakingBenjamins
+    listen: "127.0.0.1:8733"
+    bakers: [
+    	tz1S5WxdZR5f9NzsPXhr7L9L1vrEb5spZFur
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+

Here’s the TezPeak minimal configuration, showing you can also have multiple bakers:

+
```hjson
+{
+    listen: "0.0.0.0:8733"
+    bakers: [
+        tz1P6WKJu2rcbxKiKRZHKQKmKrpC9TfW1AwM
+        tz1hZvgjekGo7DmQjWh7XnY5eLQD8wNYPczE
+    ]
+}
+```
+
+

Here’s the TezPeak configuration with all available options:

+
```hjson
+{
+    # Id to show in the header
+    id: ""
+    # Address to listen on
+    listen: 127.0.0.1:8733
+    # List of bakers to monitor
+    bakers: [
+    ]
+    # Baker's node to connect to
+    node: http://localhost:8732
+    # List of reference nodes to connect to
+    # The reference nodes are used to get the rights and blocks if the baker's node is not available
+    reference_nodes: {
+        "Tezos Foundation": {
+            address: https://rpc.tzbeta.net/
+            is_rights_provider: true
+            is_block_provider: false
+        },
+        "tzkt": {
+            address: https://rpc.tzkt.io/mainnet/
+            is_rights_provider: false
+            is_block_provider: true
+        }
+    }
+    # The mode tezpeak should operate in
+    # auto - if bound to localhost, it will operate in private mode if not, it will operate in public mode
+    # public - assumes public environment, only readonly operations are allowed
+    # private - assumes private environment, all operations are allowed
+    mode: auto
+    # The number of blocks to look for the rights
+    # 50 means 25 blocks in the past and 25 blocks in the future
+    block_window: 50
+}
+```
