KRONOS GETTING STARTED

KRONOS INFORMATION

Kronos creates a /data and a /kronosleveldb folder directories for storing your data and local databases. Kronos data is encrypted using a randomly generated secret key upon the first launch of Kronos and securely stored in your OS's Keychain (Keychain on macOS, Credential Manager on Windows, and libsecret on Linux).

If you wish to start fresh with Kronos and get back to the selection screen, delete the /data and /kronosleveldb folders after shutting down Kronos. Then enter the keychain manager in your OS and search for Kronos/localkey & Kronos/localses remove them as well. After removing all folders and keychain data listed you can boot Kronos.

Helpful Commands

nohup npm run headless & To run Kronos in a headless mode on your LAN (typically ran from Raspberry Pi) (Outputs log to nohup.out) node -r esm ./bin/kronos Alternative command to the npm run headless command, no log output electron-forge start To run Kronos in app mode with Electron, also outputs LAN server (can be ran from OS of choice with GUI)

KRONOS BASH INSTALLER SCRIPT

Simply run the single command below in your Terminal or via SSH, then choose one of the options if you want to Install Kronos with or without Denarius chaindata or if you want to just update!:

wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/carsenk/kronos/master/installkronos.sh | bash

or

curl -o- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/carsenk/kronos/master/installkronos.sh | bash

You can choose an option 1-3 from the installer script above to either install Kronos, install Kronos with Denarius chaindata, or Update Kronos!

RUN KRONOS HEADLESS MODE (Raspberry Pi, etc.):

Install NodeJS v12.x via NodeSource or Installer from https://nodejs.org

# Using Ubuntu
sudo apt install -y curl
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | sudo -E bash -
sudo apt-get install -y nodejs

# Using Debian, as root
apt install -y curl
curl -sL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_12.x | bash -
apt-get install -y nodejs

Run sudo apt-get install -y nodejs to install Node.js 12.x and npm

You may also need development tools to build native addons: sudo apt-get install gcc g++ make

To install the Yarn package manager, run:

     curl -sL https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/pubkey.gpg | sudo apt-key add -
     echo "deb https://dl.yarnpkg.com/debian/ stable main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/yarn.list
     sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install yarn
