How to Download and Run the Orchestrator Deployment Script

[Note: Written by ChatGPT] In this post, I’ll guide you through the process of downloading and running a script that deploys the Orchestrator. Don’t worry if you’re not a computer programmer; I’ll break it down step by step.

Step 1: Downloading the Script

  1. wget https://gist.githubusercontent.com/0x3639/eda9f69e7bb1043e88a5042206c1fa94/raw/fe90e97bd7e41707b2b03e54be13afff82dc0df0/deploy-orchestrator.sh

Step 2: Make The Script Executable

  1. Make the script executable with the command: chmod +x deploy-orchestrator.sh

Step 3: Gathering Required Information

Before running the script, ensure you have the following information at hand:

  1. ZNN Node Address: This is the address of your ZNN node.
  2. ETH Node Address: The address of your Ethereum node. Follow these instructions to setup an ETH node.
  3. Producer KeyFile Passphrase: A passphrase for the Producer KeyFile. Ensure you keep this passphrase safe and confidential.

Step 4: Run the Script

  1. Run the script with the command: ./deploy-orchestrator.sh
  2. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the deployment.

What Does the Script Do?

The script is designed to deploy the Orchestrator, a service that manages various tasks. Here’s a simplified breakdown of its functions:

  1. Check for Required Programs: The script checks if certain programs (like gcc, go, and jq) are installed on your computer. If not, it installs them for you.
  2. Collect Information: It will ask you for specific details like your ZNN node address, ETH node address, and a passphrase. These details are essential for the Orchestrator’s configuration.
  3. Download and Install Orchestrator: The script will download the Orchestrator from its GitHub repository, compile it, and install it on your system.
  4. Configuration: It modifies configuration files to ensure the Orchestrator runs with the correct settings.
  5. Service Creation: The script sets up the Orchestrator as a system service, ensuring it starts automatically and runs in the background.
