Manual Installation
Let's explore the manual installation process as we set up a node with Cosmovisor!
Install Dependencies
Update system package and install build tools
sudo apt -q update
sudo apt -qy install curl git jq lz4 build-essential fail2ban ufw
sudo apt -qy upgrade
Secure Setup
π’
This step is optional, and you can choose to skip ahead to configure moniker.
Setup ssh for symphony user replace YOUR_PUBLIC_SSH_KEY with your own!
sudo adduser symphony --disabled-password -q
sudo usermod -aG sudo symphony
sudo -u symphony bash -c 'mkdir -p ~/.ssh && echo "YOUR_PUBLIC_SSH_KEY" >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys && chmod 700 ~/.ssh && chmod 600 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys'
Configure Moniker
Replace <your-moniker-name> with your own validator name
MONIKER="<your-moniker-name>"
Install Go
install go version 1.21.1
sudo rm -rf /usr/local/go
curl -Ls https://go.dev/dl/go1.21.1.linux-amd64.tar.gz | sudo tar -xzf - -C /usr/local
eval $(echo 'export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/go/bin' | sudo tee /etc/profile.d/golang.sh)
eval $(echo 'export PATH=$PATH:$HOME/go/bin' | tee -a $HOME/.profile)
Build Binaries
Cloning project repository & Compile binaries
cd $HOME
rm -rf symphony
git clone https://github.com/Orchestra-Labs/symphony
cd symphony
git checkout v0.3.0
make build

Prepare binaries for cosmovisor
mkdir -p $HOME/.symphonyd/cosmovisor/genesis/bin
mv build/symphonyd $HOME/.symphonyd/cosmovisor/genesis/bin/
rm -rf build
Create symlinks
sudo ln -s $HOME/.symphonyd/cosmovisor/genesis $HOME/.symphonyd/cosmovisor/current -f
sudo ln -s $HOME/.symphonyd/cosmovisor/current/bin/symphonyd /usr/local/bin/symphonyd -f
Cosmovisor Setup
Install cosmovisor
go install cosmossdk.io/tools/cosmovisor/cmd/cosmovisor@v1.5.0
