Step 1: Download NIS<\/h3>\n
Visit:\u00a0https:\/\/nem.io\/downloads\/ and download the NEM Infrastructure Server.<\/p>\n
Assuming you have ssh’d into your Raspberry Pi, I navigated to the Downloads folder and ran wget.<\/p>\n
ERROR: The certificate of \u2018bob.nem.ninja\u2019 is not trusted. If you do, run the following:<\/p>\n Extract the file with: You will see a new package folder. cd into this folder and you’ll see a whole bunch of files.<\/p>\n You can actually start the NEM node now if you want to run on mainnet. For testing purposes, let’s configure it for testnet.<\/p>\n cd into nis and edit config.properties<\/p>\n Look for “nem.network = mainnet” and change to “<\/span>nem.network = testnet”<\/span><\/p>\n You should see the node kick into action. Synchronizing the blockchain will take a long time. I didn’t go through this process as it would have taken days. I used tip #1 below.<\/p>\n Downloading the entire NEM testnet blockchain on a Raspberry Pi will take potentially days. To speed up the process, install NEM NIS on your laptop going through the same process as above. It should only take around 5~6 hours. Then compress the nem folder in your user directory with:<\/p>\n And scp (secure copy) to your Pi.<\/p>\n Every time you start up the node, the NEM blockchain has to “load up”. On screen you’ll see the block height scrolling by really fast. This currently takes 5-10 minutes so keep this in mind especially if you want to do a demo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" A raspberry pi is a very neat device and very<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1984,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1981","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blockchain"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi.jpg",200,328,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi-150x150.jpg",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi-183x300.jpg",183,300,true],"medium_large":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi.jpg",200,328,false],"large":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi.jpg",200,328,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi.jpg",200,328,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi.jpg",200,328,false],"chromenews-featured":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi.jpg",200,328,false],"chromenews-large":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi.jpg",200,328,false],"chromenews-medium":["https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/nempi.jpg",200,328,false]},"author_info":{"info":["seandotau"]},"category_info":"Blockchain<\/a>","tag_info":"Blockchain","comment_count":"0","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1981","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1981"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1981\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2044,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1981\/revisions\/2044"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1984"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1981"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1981"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.talkcrypto.org\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1981"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}wget https:\/\/bob.nem.ninja\/nis-0.6.95.tgz<\/code>
