Quick Installation

Pyrsia can easily be setup on a local Ubuntu (or Debian based) machine by using our apt installer package.

Supported Platforms​

Limited platform support

Currently our team is working very hard on core features and installers for other operating systems.

  • Ubuntu Focal (x86_64)

Until we provide installers for other operating systems, you can start using Pyrsia by running our pre-built Docker image or build Pyrsia from source.

Using the Web Script​

curl -sS https://pyrsia.io/install.sh | sh

From the Command Line​

# Update system and install base tooling
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y wget gnupg

# Add the Pyrsia keys to verify packages
wget -q -O - https://repo.pyrsia.io/repos/Release.key |  gpg --dearmor  > pyrsia.gpg
sudo install -o root -g root -m 644 pyrsia.gpg /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/
rm pyrsia.gpg
echo "deb https://repo.pyrsia.io/repos/nightly focal main" | sudo tee -a /etc/apt/sources.list > /dev/null
sudo apt-get update

# Install
sudo apt-get install -y pyrsia

Verify everything is running smoothly​

$ pyrsia --version
pyrsia 0.1.0
$ pyrsia ping
Connection Successful !! {}

If you see the following output, then your installation has failed.

$ pyrsia ping
Error: error sending request for url (http://localhost:7888/v2): error trying to connect: tcp connect error: Connection refused (os error 111)

Run Pyrsia in Docker​

As a temporary alternative to the installation scripts for the supported platforms, you can also choose to run our pre-built Docker image available in Docker Hub

Make sure you have Docker installed on your system and run:

docker run -p 7888:7888 pyrsiaoss/pyrsia-node

Or use this docker-compose.yml file:

services:
  pyrsia:
    image: pyrsiaoss/pyrsia-node
    ports:
      - "7888:7888"
    volumes:
      - "pyrsia:/pyrsia"

volumes:
  pyrsia:

And start running Pyrsia in the background:

docker-compose up -d

Tail the logs to check if Pyrsia started correctly:

docker-compose logs -f

Or use the pyrsia CLI like this:

docker exec pyrsia-1 pyrsia ping
Connection Successful !!

(replace pyrsia-1 with the name of your Pyrsia container)
