I am running a node on a rpi4 with debian trixie, knots installed and synced and would like to isntall datum to mine with my bitaxes, but on github I found no support for arm. It would be nice to have some guide like raspibolt or ramix to do it. Please help

I did a quick search and couldn't find anything for the ARM processor. I guess you only have two options left: you can either ask for help on the satum_gateway or raspiblitz githubs, or you can just compile it yourself from the source code.

I’ve compiled for ARM before and it wasn’t hard at all, you just need the compiler toolchain and to hope that all the dependencies for ARM are available. They should be, in theory.

Yes, I guess you have to compile the software yourself following these instructions https://github.com/OCEAN-xyz/datum_gateway?tab=readme-ov-file#installation

It's not that complicated.

Did I miss something, or are there no instructions for ARM Linux?

reply

When compiling the software does it make a difference if x86 or arm?

reply

You need the ARM compiler.

oh i see, thanks for the info. So it would be good to make things easier to install datum if we want more people mining with ocean, especially if those mining with bitaxes and raspberry pi, odroid and etc nodes want to use datum.

If you have a Raspberry Pi, you can try out these commands.

sudo apt install cmake pkgconf libcurl4-openssl-dev libjansson-dev libsodium-dev libmicrohttpd-dev psmisc

git clone https://github.com/OCEAN-xyz/datum_gateway.git
cd datum_gateway

mkdir build
cd build
cmake . && make

If you don't, it's a little more complicated because you'll have to cross-compile, but there are tons of tutorials online on how to install the toolchain.

oh I have one finisihing to sync knots! God bless you!
