Machinaris runs well inside Docker on MacOS (Intel) systems, though unfortunately not yet MacOS (Apple) systems. The following guide covers a standalone install on a single machine. Once launched, you'll just browse to http://localhost:8926.

Standalone

Machinaris also supports monitoring and controlling multiple workers on your local-area-network.

Pre-requisites

You'll need a recent Docker installed.

Install and Launching

Most users will want to run a full-node with all services started and full-functionality available. Use the Launch Wizard to create a Docker Run or Docker Compose command your system.

Other Modes

A Machinaris plotter is a remotely-controlled worker. Please see the Workers page for details on launching a plotter, a harvester, a harvester+plotter instead.

Post-Install Configuration

Once you have launched Machinaris, be sure to do the following, regardless of which platform you are using. For fullnode (default) and farmer modes, you'll need to either import a key or generate a new one as described below. Plotter and harvester modes DO NOT require key import or generation (see steps above).

Import Key Mnemonic

Just browse to http://localhost:8926 where you can either import an existing key or generate a new one:

GenerateKey

Port-Forward TCP/8444

For your full-node, you should port-forward your router back to your Docker container on port tcp/8444. This is required to stay synced and thus participating in farming challenges.

Here's an example port-forward config from my Unifi-router:
