go version
Node installation
curl -s https://get.nibiru.fi/@v0.21.11! | bash
mv /usr/local/bin/nibid $HOME/go/bin
nibid version --long | grep -e version -e commit
# v0.21.11
# commit: b5fc784f8fb31628df639fcc23d80621e437f044
We initialize the node to create the necessary configuration files
nibid init UTSA_guide --chain-id nibiru-itn-3
Download Genesis
curl -s https://rpc.itn-3.nibiru.fi/genesis | jq -r .result.genesis > $HOME/.nibid/config/genesis.json
sha256sum ~/.nibid/config/genesis.json
# 112ca8b452ca0369e0f225b9befe26dff9cfa3879af4c7f334a7a15cb8f12619
At this stage, we can download the address book
wget -O $HOME/.nibid/config/addrbook.json "https://share101.utsa.tech/nibiru/addrbook.json"
Set up node configuration
nibid config chain-id nibiru-itn-3
nibid config keyring-backend os
sed -i.bak -e "s/^minimum-gas-prices *=.*/minimum-gas-prices = \"0.025unibi\"/;" ~/.nibid/config/app.toml
external_address=$(wget -qO- eth0.me)
sed -i.bak -e "s/^external_address *=.*/external_address = \"$external_address:26656\"/" $HOME/.nibid/config/config.toml
seeds=""
sed -i.bak -e "s/^seeds =.*/seeds = \"$seeds\"/" $HOME/.nibid/config/config.toml
(OPTIONAL) Set up pruning
pruning="custom"
pruning_keep_recent="1000"
pruning_interval="10"
sed -i -e "s/^pruning *=.*/pruning = \"$pruning\"/" $HOME/.nibid/config/app.toml

sed -i -e "s/^pruning-interval *=.*/pruning-interval = \"$pruning_interval\"/" $HOME/.nibid/config/app.toml
(OPTIONAL) Set up indexer
indexer="null"
sed -i -e "s/^indexer *=.*/indexer = \"$indexer\"/" $HOME/.nibid/config/config.toml
(OPTIONAL) Enable/Disable Snapshots
snapshot_interval=1000
sed -i.bak -e "s/^snapshot-interval *=.*/snapshot-interval = \"$snapshot_interval\"/" ~/.nibid/config/app.toml
