Hardware Requirements

Here are the minimal hardware configs required for running a validator/sentry node

• 8GB RAM
• 4vCPUs
• 200GB Disk space

Software Requirements

Install deps

sudo apt-get install build-essential jq

Compile instructions: install GoLang

Install Go 1.17.x The official instructions can be found here: https://golang.org/doc/install

First remove any existing old Go installation as root

sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go

Download the software:

curl https://dl.google.com/go/go1.17.6.linux-amd64.tar.gz | sudo tar -C/usr/local -zxvf -

Update environment variables to include go (copy everything and paste)

cat <<'EOF' >>$HOME/.profile
export GOROOT=/usr/local/go
export GOPATH=$HOME/go
export GO111MODULE=on
export GOBIN=$HOME/go/bin
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin:$GOBIN
EOF
source $HOME/.profile

To verify that Go is installed:

go version

Should return go version go1.17.6 linux/amd64

Compile dewebd source code by yourself

Download source code and compile

git clone https://github.com/deweb-services/deweb.git
cd deweb
git checkout v0.2
make build   #it build the binary in build/ folder

To know the version:

build/dewebd version

The output must be 0.2

Is the version match, now you have two options

• Move the binary to the /usr/local/bin path with: sudo mv build/dewebd /usr/local/bin/
• Compile and install the binary in the $GOPATH path: make install
