REALIO NODE INSTALL

It is assumed that you have already upgraded your host and secured your ssh access and all ports.

We’re going to install the pre-requisites, then we’ll install and configure Go and finally we’ll install realio-networkd, configure it and run it from our snapshot.

Install pre-requisites

sudo apt update
sudo apt install git build-essential ufw curl jq lz4 --yes

Install Go

rm go1.20.2.linux-amd64.tar.gz
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin
cat << EOF>> ~/.profile

Init Realio Network
# CHANGE $NODE_NAME with “your node name”
realio-networkd config chain-id realionetwork_3301-1
realio-networkd init "$NODE_NAME" --chain-id realionetwork_3301-1
Download Genesis, Addrbook, Snapshot and extract it
rm $HOME/.realio-network/config/genesis.json
wget https://snapshot.safeblock.space/realio/genesis.json -P $HOME/.realio-network/config
wget https://snapshot.safeblock.space/realio/addrbook.json -P $HOME/.realio-network/config
wget https://snapshot.safeblock.space/realio/realio-snapshot_03-12-2023.tar.lz4
lz4 -c -d realio-snapshot_03-12-2023.tar.lz4 | tar -x -C $HOME/.realio-network
rm realio-snapshot_03-12-2023.tar.lz4
Create Realio Service

sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/realio-networkd.service > /dev/null << EOF

Start Realio Service

Enable realio-networkd in background:
sudo systemctl enable realio-networkd

Start realio-networkd in background:
sudo systemctl start realio-networkd

Check Realio Service

sudo journalctl -fu realio-networkd -o cat
# Ctrl+C to exit

sudo journalctl -fu realio-networkd -o cat | grep index
# Ctrl+C to exit

curl -s http://0.0.0.0:26657/status | jq -r .result.sync_info.catching_up

If response is “true”, you not are synched, wait….
When response is “false”, your node are synched to Realio Network
