Unrecognized subcommand 'export-genesis-state'

[magecnion]

Issue Description

I'm trying to run the Zombienet environment with a collator using the Frontier runtime.

Steps to reproduce the issue

Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Build frontier with polkadot-sdk v1.11.0
2. Run zombienet with the following configuration:

[settings]
timeout = 1000

[relaychain]
default_image = "paritypr/polkadot-debug:master"
chain = "rococo-local"

  [[relaychain.nodes]]
  name = "alice"

  [[relaychain.nodes]]
  name = "bob"

[[parachains]]
id = 100

  [parachains.collator]
  name = "collator01"
  command =  "/frontier/target/release/frontier-template-node"

Describe the results you received

error: unrecognized subcommand 'export-genesis-state'

  tip: a similar subcommand exists: 'export-state'

Usage: frontier-template-node [OPTIONS]
       frontier-template-node <COMMAND>

For more information, try '--help'

Describe the results you expected

It should run a network with a collator that includes the frontier runtime.

Hi @magecnion, I think the issue is that the needed subcommands are not available in the collator binary.

	/// Export the genesis state of the parachain.
	#[command(alias = "export-genesis-state")]
	ExportGenesisHead(cumulus_client_cli::ExportGenesisHeadCommand),

	/// Export the genesis wasm of the parachain.
	ExportGenesisWasm(cumulus_client_cli::ExportGenesisWasmCommand),

Does this binary works before with zombienet?

You can set the wasm/head of the parachain using this keys (at parachain level)

genesis_wasm_path = "<path to wasm>"
genesis_state_path = "<path to head/state>"

e.g

[[parachains]]
id = 100
genesis_wasm_path = "<path to wasm>"
genesis_state_path = "<path to head/state>"

  [parachains.collator]
  name = "collator01"
  command =  "/frontier/target/release/frontier-template-node"

Thx!

It is the first time I am trying to run Frontier binary with Zombienet, but looking at previous versions, it doesn't include those commands either.

You can set the wasm/head of the parachain using this keys (at parachain level)

genesis_wasm_path = "<path to wasm>"
genesis_state_path = "<path to head/state>"

e.g

[[parachains]]
id = 100
genesis_wasm_path = "<path to wasm>"
genesis_state_path = "<path to head/state>"

  [parachains.collator]
  name = "collator01"
  command =  "/frontier/target/release/frontier-template-node"

Thx!

Because of what was stated in the previous comment, I'm not able to produce WASM and state manually. I could implement those commands in Frontier. However, I'm getting another error:

I think it is because the Frontier node has no integration with parachain code (aka Cumulus), so I guess there is no easy workaround to get this working.
