Deploy NATS

Prerequisites

In order to proceed the following prerequisites must be met:

Portainer is not required but highly recommended as it provides a nice GUI front end to Docker. Make sure to complete the last section "Keep Ubuntu VM Running"

• Install Portainer

The Node must be deployed before deploying the Farmer

• Deploy Node

Create NATS config

Open up WSL with wsl and then create a nats folder:

mkdir ~/nats

Then create the config:

nano ~/nats/nats.config

Paste in the following:

max_payload = 2MB

Press CTRL + x then y then enter to save.

Deploy NATS

Open up Portainer, go to "Stacks" and then click "Add Stack"

For "Name" enter "autonomys-nats". Navigate to the Docker nats.yaml then copy the code and paste it into the stack file. No changes should be needed. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Deploy the stack".

NATS is now deployed on the autonomys-network and can accept connections from Cluster components.
