Installing the Minima Node

1. System update, environment installation:

apt update && apt dist-upgrade -y

apt install curl screen nmon htop -y

2. Create user minima:

sudo adduser minima9001

3. Let's give sudo rights to the created user:

sudo usermod -aG sudo minima9001

4. Let's connect under the minima user:

su - minima9001

5. Downloading the setup script:

sudo curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com/ -o get-docker.sh

6. Distribute the rights to run the script and execute the docker installation script:

sudo chmod +x ./get-docker.sh && ./get-docker.sh

7. Add a user to the docker group:

sudo usermod -aG docker minima9001

8. Output to apply docker management rights:

exit

9. Let's connect under the minima user:

su - minima9001

10. We set the password mds (instead of 123 in the command) and execute the command to create a container for the Minima node.

The password must consist of numbers and letters in lower case, without special characters!

docker run -d -e minima_mdspassword=123 -e minima_server=true -v ~/minimadocker9001:/home/minima/data -p 9001-9004:9001-9004 --restart unless-stopped --name minima9001 minimaglobal/minima:latest

11. We exit after the creation of the container is completed:

exit

12. We start services:

sudo systemctl enable docker.service

sudo systemctl enable containerd.service

13. Let's connect under the minima user:

su - minima9001

14. To set up automatic updates, install WATCHTOWER:

docker run -d --restart unless-stopped --name watchtower -e WATCHTOWER_CLEANUP=true -e WATCHTOWER_TIMEOUT=60s -v /var/run/docker.sock:/var/run/docker.sock containrrr/watchtower

15. Checking minim containers:

docker ps

16. Open the browser and paste in Url https://YourServerIP:9003/ where change YourServerIP to your IP Address. We log in using the password that was set for mds.

If you do not know your IP, you can check it with the command:

wget -qO- eth0.me

17. We look for and open the Incentive Program minidapp, copy our Incentive ID there.

Incentive ID you can get on the page:

https://incentive.minima.global/home/pages/incentiveid
