Rocket Pool - Smart Node Installation

This repository contains compiled binaries for the Rocket Pool smart node client, as well as the installation script & configuration assets for the smart node service.

The smart node client is supported on Linux, MacOS and Windows. Note that a smart node cannot be run locally on Windows at this stage; the Windows client can only be used to manage a remote server.

The smart node service is supported on all Unix platforms, with automatic dependency installation for Ubuntu, Debian, CentOS and Fedora. A smart node can be run on other Unix platforms, but manual installation of dependencies (docker engine and docker-compose) is required.

Smart Node Client Installation

Linux (64 bit)

With cURL:

curl -L https://github.com/rocket-pool/smartnode-install/releases/latest/download/rocketpool-cli-linux-amd64 --create-dirs -o ~/bin/rocketpool && chmod +x ~/bin/rocketpool

With wget:

mkdir -p ~/bin && wget https://github.com/rocket-pool/smartnode-install/releases/latest/download/rocketpool-cli-linux-amd64 -O ~/bin/rocketpool && chmod +x ~/bin/rocketpool

Note: you may need to start a new shell session before you can run the rocketpool command.

MacOS Intel (64 bit)

With cURL:

curl -L https://github.com/rocket-pool/smartnode-install/releases/latest/download/rocketpool-cli-darwin-amd64 -o /usr/local/bin/rocketpool && chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rocketpool

With wget:

wget https://github.com/rocket-pool/smartnode-install/releases/latest/download/rocketpool-cli-darwin-amd64 -O /usr/local/bin/rocketpool && chmod +x /usr/local/bin/rocketpool

MacOS M1 (64 bit)

With cURL:

curl -L https://github.com/rocket-pool/smartnode-install/releases/latest/download/rocketpool-cli-darwin-arm64 -o /opt/homebrew/bin/rocketpool && chmod +x /opt/homebrew/bin/rocketpool

With wget:

wget https://github.com/rocket-pool/smartnode-install/releases/latest/download/rocketpool-cli-darwin-arm64 -O /opt/homebrew/bin/rocketpool && chmod +x /opt/homebrew/bin/rocketpool

Windows (64 bit)

  1. Download the smart node client.
  2. Move it to the desired location on your system (e.g. C:\bin\rocketpool.exe).
  3. Open the command prompt and run it via its full path (e.g. C:\bin\rocketpool.exe).

Smart Node Service Installation

Automatic

Once you have installed the Rocket Pool smart node client, simply run the rocketpool service install command to install the smart node service locally.

To install to a remote server, use:

rocketpool --host example.com --user username --key /path/to/identity.pem service install

If automatic dependency installation is not supported on your platform, use the -d option to skip this step (e.g. rocketpool service install -d). Then, manually install docker engine and docker-compose.

Manual

If you would prefer to check the installation script before running it, you may download and run it manually.

With cURL:

curl -L https://github.com/rocket-pool/smartnode-install/releases/latest/download/install.sh -o install.sh
chmod +x install.sh

./install.sh
rm install.sh

With wget:

wget https://github.com/rocket-pool/smartnode-install/releases/latest/download/install.sh -O install.sh
chmod +x install.sh

./install.sh
rm install.sh

The installation script prints progress messages to stdout and full command output to stderr. Use 1>/dev/null to silence progress messages, or 2>/dev/null to silence command output.

Available Options

The following options apply to both automatic and manual installation unless specified otherwise:

  • -r: Verbose mode (print all output from the installation process) - automatic installation only
  • -d: Skip automatic installation of OS dependencies
  • -n: Specify a network to run the smart node on (default: pyrmont)
  • -v: Specify a version of the smart node service package files to use (default: latest)

Post-Install

Once the smart node service has been installed, you may need to start a new shell session if working locally. This is required for updated user permissions to take effect (for interacting with docker engine).
