Etcd is written in Go and uses the [raft][raft] consensus algorithm to manage a highly availably replicated log.

These examples will use a single node cluster to show you the basics of the etcd REST API. Lets start etcd:
```sh
./etcd -d node0
./etcd -d node0 -n node0
```
This will bring up an etcd node listening on port 4001 for client communication and on port 7001 for server-to-server communication. The `-d node0` argument tells etcd to write node configuration, logs and snapshots to the `./node0/` directory.

The `-n node0` tells the rest of the cluster that this node is named node0.

We use -s to specify server port and -c to specify client port and -d to specify the directory to store the log and info of the node in the cluster
```sh
./etcd -s 7001 -c 4001 -d nodes/node1
./etcd -s 7001 -c 4001 -d nodes/node1 -n node1
```
Let the join two more nodes to this cluster using the -C argument:
```sh
./etcd -c 4002 -s 7002 -C 127.0.0.1:7001 -d nodes/node2
./etcd -c 4003 -s 7003 -C 127.0.0.1:7001 -d nodes/node3
