1. Start by running MyNode on your device via the instructions above in "Running MyNode"
2. Modify MyNode files
2022-08-20 02:48:28 +00:00
* Clone this git repo on your PC or laptop - `git clone https://github.com/mynodebtc/mynode.git`
* Make your modifications
3. Run `make rootfs`
* Or run `make rootfs_auto` in a new console tab
* This will automatically create artifacts as local files are modified
4. Run 'make start_file_server'
* This will run a local HTTP server so your device can download files
5. On your device, run `sudo mynode-local-upgrade [dev pc ip address]`
* This will download your locally generated artifact and install it on your device
* Your device will automatically reboot to ensure updates take effect
6. Test your changes!
7. Submit Pull Request to share your updates!
### To update a subsystem without rebooting
Add another argument to the local upgrade script:
- To update files only, run `sudo mynode-local-upgrade [dev pc ip address] files`
- To update files and restart web server, run `sudo mynode-local-upgrade [dev pc ip address] www`
