Peer node setup

Instruction on the GitHub LINK

❗️
Be sure to read the instructions on setting up the #MetaHashGate node here

Please follow the instruction to setup the node.

Required libs:
cmake >= 3.14.1
gcc >= 8.2
libev = 4.25
boost >= 1.70
libsecp256k1
libfmt = 5.3.0
gperftools >= 2.7
openssl >= 1.1.1b
libconfig >= 1.7.2

1. Install Docker

sudo apt-get update
sudo apt install docker.io
sudo systemctl start docker
sudo systemctl enable docker

2. Create a directory for configs and script

Be careful, this directory mustn’t be for read-only. Also, the name of the directory shouldn’t contain special symbols or spaces. Good variant for directory name - peer_node

3. Open terminal in this directory

4. Use command:

vim private.key
Paste your private key in HEX format. To quit vim press ESC, “:”, write “wq” and press Enter. (write all without “”)
How to get private key in HEX format

5. Use next commands:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/metahashorg/peer_node/master/install/peer.conf --no-check-certificate
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/metahashorg/peer_node/master/install/peer.network --no-check-certificate
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/metahashorg/peer_node/master/install/start.sh --no-check-certificate

6. After downloading these files, use command:

./start.sh
If you’ll get the error “Permission denied” provide permission by chmod +x start.sh

7. You should get something like this:

$./start.sh
