Superalgos Installation script; Making Bitcoin-Factory Participation Easy!
As I am sure many of you that have participated in the Bitcoin-Factory know, getting everything set up is not the simplest task. Over the month of June, I decided to address this issue. A new convenience installation method has been created. This install script should work with any Debian based distro, and has been tested on both Ubuntu and Raspberry Pi OS.
Where To Find It?
A new folder has been created under Superalgos/Bitcoin-Factory/Launch-Script called “Ubuntu+”. This folder is where you will find the install script “Ubuntu_SA_Installer”. I would like to note that I do think this install script would be more useful if made available on the Superalgos website, but that is for everyone to decide!
How To Use It?
From wherever the script is located, it can be run by typing “./Ubuntu_SA_Installer”.
What Does It Do?
Designed with convenience in mind, this install method utilizes the existing install scripts to bring the user from zero to fully installed in a few simple questions.
This script will:
- Install needed dependencies
- Ensure user has correct access rights
- Optional Docker install (for Bitcoin-Factory)
- Install Superalgos in the home directory
- Run “node setup” script for you
- Run “node setupPlugins” script for you
- Run “node updateGithubRepos” script for you
- Run the docker build command
What Will It Ask You?
After a few yes or no questions the user will be prompted to input the following three pieces of information.
- Github Username
- Github Token
- Superalgos Fork URL
Final Notes
Once the install script has finished, a restart is required for all changes to take effect.
To start the installation script you may need to change its access rights. To do this move to the scripts location and enter: sudo chmod 775 Ubuntu_SA_Installer.sh
