Remote Monitoring Node Setup

This repository contains source code for Stellar's remote monitoring node setup. The compiled binary installs dependencies, registers the node with the RMON reverse SSH-tunnel server, and sets up AppNeta docker-compose container(s).

Usage

Download the latest release

There are multiple builds of the release, for different CPU architectures/platforms:

Release Suffix	Platform
linux_amd64	Linux, Intel or AMD x86
linux_armv5	Linux, Raspberry Pi

Right click the one matching your situation, and copy the link. Run the following commands to download and extract:

wget <release url>
tar xvfz <release file> rmon-node-setup

Run the binary

$ sudo ./rmon-node-setup
Orion RMON Raspberry Pi Setup

You'll need:

  - ID number of the unit, a unique 2 digit number between 1-99.
  - FQDN of the remote SSH tunnel server.

You'll receive the following prompts, so have this information ready:

Node ID (2 digit number):
SSH Tunnel Server (FQDN):
Enter the AppNeta API Key from IT Glue:

You should see a number of log messages explaining what the script is doing in the background, ending with Setup complete!. After this is done, the node should be available on the SSH Tunnel server via port 100xx where xx is the Node ID.

Creating a New Release

This project uses GoReleaser to manage releases. After completing code changes and committing them via Git, be sure to tag the release before pushing:

git tag <release>

Once a new tag is pushed, GoReleaser will automagically create a new build & release.
