# Skynet Portal Setup Scripts
|
|
|
|
This directory contains a setup guide and scripts that will install and
|
|
configure some basic requirements for running a Skynet Portal. The assumption is
|
|
that we are working with a Debian Buster Minimal system or similar.
|
|
|
|
## Initial Setup
|
|
(Assumes we are logged in as root on a fresh installation of Debian)
|
|
|
|
You may want to fork this repository and add your ssh pubkey to
|
|
`authorized_keys` and optionally edit the `tmux` and `bash` configurations.
|
|
|
|
0. SSH in a freshly installed Debian machine.
|
|
1. `apt-get update && apt-get install sudo`
|
|
2. `adduser user`
|
|
3. `usermod -a -G sudo user`
|
|
4. Quit the ssh session.
|
|
|
|
You a can now ssh into your machine as the user `user`.
|
|
|
|
5. On your local machine: `ssh-copy-id user@ip-addr`
|
|
6. On your local machine: `ssh user@ip-addr`
|
|
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`
|
|
11. `./setup.sh`
|
|
12. Once DNS records are set you can run: `./letsencrypt-setup.sh`
|
|
13. This should edit your nginx configuration for you. If not, you should check
|
|
that keys were created by letsencrypt in `/etc/letsencrypt/live/` and add
|
|
the following lines into your nginx configuration. Make sure to replace
|
|
`YOUR-DOMAIN` with your domain name.
|
|
```
|
|
ssl_certificate /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOUR-DOMAIN/fullchain.pem;
|
|
ssl_certificate_key /etc/letsencrypt/live/YOUR-DOMAIN/privkey.pem;
|
|
```
|
|
14. You should also change the nginx configuration to listen on port 443
|
|
instead.
|
|
15. Finally make sure to check your nginx conf and reload nginx:
|
|
`sudo nginx -t`
|
|
`sudo systemctl reload nginx`
|
|
|
|
## Running siad
|
|
|
|
NOTE: You must be running `siad` and `siac` by building from a version at least
|
|
as recent as `v1.4.3`.
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
## Portal 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 --payment-contract-initial-funding 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.
