Jormungandr: Error in documentation of public_id

Created on 20 Dec 2019  路  2Comments  路  Source: input-output-hk/jormungandr

Describe the bug
On a page Node network of the Jormungandr documentation, in section Setting the public_id it says

Unless you want to advertise your node as a trusted peer, you don't want to set a public_id. This is completely useful. If not set, the node will generate a random one automatically.

While I disagree with the statement, because it will reduce the log noise upon node restart for other poldercast peers; I believe in order for the paragraph to make any sort of sense, word useful should be replace by a word useless.

Mandatory Information

The documentantion to generate public id is also outdated. I tryed to conect 2 nodes and i cant reach the point to generate the simplified key. Its the derivate option? what is the index parameter?
