Run a Flare node on your computer now!
Requirements:
- Docker is installed on your computer: INSTALL DOCKER,
- An additional 16 GB of RAM for each Node you wish to run on your computer,
- An additional 500 GB of storage (HDD or SSD),
Follow these steps:
- Open a Bash or a ZSH terminal (Mac or Linux), or a Powershell CLI (Windows),
- Enter the following command in the terminal, and wait for the server to finish bootstrapping:
docker run -dit --restart=always -e FLARE_BIND_ADDRESS=0.0.0.0 -p 9650:9650 --name my_flare_server asclinux/flarelinux:1.1.6-1.9.1 flare --flare-coston2
You could also run the server in interactive mode by removing the 'd' option, like so:
docker run -it [...]
You can find the Flare Network code repository at: https://github.com/flare-foundation/flare
