## Setup Guide
A setup guide with scripts to install prerequisites can be found in the
[setup-scripts](./setup-scripts) directory.
Once the setup guide is complete you will be running:
- `siad` configured as a ViewNode
- a NodeJS app running a Skynet Portal
- an nginx proxy

7. Now logged in as `user`: `sudo apt-get install git`
8. `git clone https://github.com/NebulousLabs/skynet-webportal`
9. `cd skynet-webportal/setup-scripts`
10. Add ssh pubkeys to `authorized_keys` file.
11. `./setup.sh`
12. Once DNS records are set you can run: `./letsencrypt-setup.sh`
13. You should also change the nginx configuration to listen on port 443
instead.
## Setting up siad
NOTE: You must be running `siad` and `siac` by building from the `viewnode`
branch.
You still need to setup `siad` for the backend to be complete.
1. `cd ~/; mkdir siad`
2. `nohup siad &>/dev/null &`
This will start syncing `siad` in the background.
## ViewNode setup
When `siad` is done syncing, create a new wallet and unlock the wallet.
Then set an allowance (`siac renter setallowance`), with the suggested values
below:
- 10 KS (keep 25 KS in your wallet)
- default period
- default number of hosts
- 8 week renewal time
- 500 GB expected storage
- 500 GB expected upload
- 5 TB expected download
- default redundancy
Once your allowance is set you need to set your node to be a viewnode with the
following command:
`siac renter setallowance --view-contract-initial-price 10SC`
Now your node will begin making 10 contracts per block with many hosts so it can
potentially view the whole network's files.
## Running the Portal
`cd` into the parent directory and run `yarn` to build dependencies.
We recommend running the Portal through `pm2` (a nodejs process manager) in the background with the command:
`pm2 --name skynet start npm -- start`
`yarn start` will also work if not using `pm2`.
The Protal which will automatically read your `siad` API password and startup a
portal on `localhost:3000`. nginx will expose this to port 80 or 443 if you
configured it for SSL.
