# How To Use

The subnet can utilize multiple record validators that are used in order of priority (see [RecordValidatorBase](https://docs.hypertensor.org/subnet-template/dht-records/record-validator/..#recordvalidatorbase)).

## Usage

#### Starting the DHT with:

* [Signature Validator](https://docs.hypertensor.org/subnet-template/dht-records/signature-validators#signaturevalidator-rsa-and-ed25519) (Record Validator)
* [Hypertensor Predicate Validator](https://docs.hypertensor.org/subnet-template/dht-records/predicate-validator#hypertensor-predicate-validator) (Record Validator)

```python
# Initialized with top priority
signature_validator = SignatureValidator(pk)

# Initialize with priority below the SignatureValidator
consensus_predicate = HypertensorPredicateValidator.from_predicate_class(
     MockHypertensorCommitReveal, hypertensor=self.hypertensor, subnet_id=subnet_id
)

record_validators=[consensus_predicate, signature_validator]

dht = DHT(
     initial_peers=initial_peers,
     start=True,
     num_workers=DEFAULT_NUM_WORKERS,
     use_relay=use_relay,
     use_auto_relay=use_auto_relay,
     client_mode=reachable_via_relay,
     record_validators=record_validators,
     **kwargs,
)
```
