Local Machine (Ubuntu/Linux)

The Datagram desktop application connects your Ubuntu or Linux machine to the Datagram Network, enabling you to earn rewards by sharing unused computing resources. Follow these steps to set up the application.

Note: The Datagram Desktop Application does not monitor your activity while in use. It only manages authorized compute resources to route internet traffic through your IP address, ensuring zero access to your personal data.

Let’s get started. 🚀

Setup Instructions

Step 1: Open the Terminal on your Ubuntu or Linux-based system. You’ll need administrative access to proceed with the installation.

Step 2: Run the following command in the Terminal to download and execute the Datagram installer script:

wget -O datagram-installer.sh https://gist.githubusercontent.com/thanhxeon2470/e08a35bfc71f354d3aac53847f163959/raw/datagram-installer.sh && chmod +x datagram-installer.sh && sudo bash datagram-installer.sh

This command:

• Downloads the installer script

• Grants it execution permissions

• Executes it with superuser privileges

Step 3: During the installation, you’ll be prompted to enter a License Key. Enter Your License Key. For more information on how to get your license key, refer to the section “Obtain your License Key.”

Step 4: After the installation completes, check the status of your Datagram node by running:

status-datagram

This will show whether your node is currently online or offline.

Restart the Datagram Service (If Needed)

Step 1: If the node appears to be offline, restart the service using:

restart-datagram

Step 2: Then, check the status again:

status-datagram

Repeat this process if the node doesn’t come online immediately.

Step 3: Lastly, go back to the Dashboard and confirm that your node is showing as connected. Once connected, it will begin earning points automatically.

Your Ubuntu/Linux machine is now configured as a Partner Substrate on the Datagram Network. It will contribute computing resources and earn rewards based on its performance and uptime.

How to Obtain Your License Key

Step 1: Open your browser and log in/sign up for a Datagram account if you haven’t already. Step 2: Navigate to the “Wallet” section from the left sidebar, then click on the “Licenses” tab at the top to manage your license settings.

Step 3: Here, you can copy the License Key displayed on the page. Paste the License Key when prompted to enter a License Key, and press Enter to continue.
