install ubuntu

install ubuntu server using default settings(except add a 32GB swap partition). You can probably get away with 8GB swap if low on storage space. If someone tests with 8GB please change these instructions.

Bugs found in js code

There was a bug in bitio that caused 7 and 8 byte numbers encoded in assets to be wrong. This only effected the following txids. 93d0407a6bf511a0eefe5a00d56965991b0a22df2fdcb74bbf025cae14549123
This didn't indirectly effect other txs so it has been fixed.

Install Dependencies

sudo apt update
sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt-get install cmake libcurl4-openssl-dev libjsoncpp-dev golang-go libjsonrpccpp-dev libjsonrpccpp-tools libsqlite3-dev build-essential pkg-config zip unzip
sudo apt install libboost-all-dev

Install VCPKG

wget -qO vcpkg.tar.gz https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/archive/master.tar.gz
sudo mkdir /opt/vcpkg
sudo tar xf vcpkg.tar.gz --strip-components=1 -C /opt/vcpkg
rm vcpkg.tar.gz
sudo /opt/vcpkg/bootstrap-vcpkg.sh
sudo ln -s /opt/vcpkg/vcpkg /usr/local/bin/vcpkg

Install Standard C++ Dependencies

Warning: The following steps build a lot of code and can take a long time to complete

sudo vcpkg install cryptopp
# sudo cp /opt/vcpkg/packages/cryptopp_x64-linux/lib/libcryptopp.a /usr/bin/
sudo mkdir /usr/local/include/cryptopp870
sudo cp /opt/vcpkg/packages/cryptopp_x64-linux/include/cryptopp/* /usr/local/include/cryptopp870/
sudo vcpkg install sqlite3

Install IPFS Desktop

wget https://dist.ipfs.tech/kubo/v0.22.0/kubo_v0.22.0_linux-amd64.tar.gz
tar -xvzf kubo_v0.22.0_linux-amd64.tar.gz
cd kubo
sudo bash install.sh
ipfs init
ipfs daemon

this step will list out a lot of data of importance is the line that says "RPC API server listening on" it is usually port 5001 note it down if it is not. You can now see IPFS usage at localhost:5001/webui in your web browser(if not headless)
