REQUIREMENTS

playbook

docker

I prefer docker installation. So you must have docker into your 64-bit system.

DOCKER-COMPOSE

FOLDER DATABASE & FILE

mkdir ~/data mkdir ~/data/iri mkdir ~/data/iri/ixi mkdir ~/data/iri/db mkdir ~/data/nginx mkdir ~/data/nginx/ssl





Download database





IOTA node is a peer to peer node, to increase init time i suggest you to download database and extract it into folder ~/data/db





curl https://global.iota.partners/iri-mainnetdb.tar.gz | tar xz -C ~/data/iri/db/

TCP

UDP

Your node must be have enough TCP (reciprocal) connection to be able to be synced.

RUN & CHECK

docker-compose up -d





IOTA has a official full node project named. It is a java open-source project ( github Today there are 2 versions of iri:There are two common solutions to install IOTA node:Docker official installation guide links:After that you must install docker compose toolDocker compose is a yaml file with docker container declarations, we must use follow file namedBefore to run, we must create folder, download tangle database and create iri and proxy configuration files.The IRI configuration file should be located into ~/data/iri/iri.ini and it must contains port configuration and neighbors node list.There are two neighbors connection type:You can find your neighbors into telegram ( italian ) / discord groupThe Nginx proxy configuration file should be located into ~/data/nginx/default.confLast thing is to startusing follow command:Once start you can open the browser to check your installation ( http://MYIP:8888 )You can also check your IRI node using Official Node Check Best regardsFabrizio Spataro
