Quick start

Install the default node software stack with a single line of command on Mac, Linux, or Windows WSL.

curl -sSfL 'https://github.com/GaiaNet-AI/gaianet-node/releases/latest/download/install.sh' | bash

Then, follow the prompt on your screen to set up the environment path. The command line will begin with source.

Initialize the node. It will download the model files and vector database files specified in the $HOME/gaianet/config.json file, and it could take a few minutes since the files are large.

gaianet init

Start the node.

gaianet start

The script prints the official node address on the console as follows. You can open a browser to that URL to see the node information and then chat with the AI agent on the node.

To stop the node, you can run the following script.

gaianet stop

The init command initializes the node according to the $HOME/gaianet/config.json file. You can use some of our pre-set configurations. For example, the command below initializes a node with the llama-3 8B model with a London guidebook as knowledge base.

gaianet init --config https://raw.githubusercontent.com/GaiaNet-AI/node-configs/main/llama-3-8b-instruct_london/config.json

To see a list of pre-set configurations, you can do gaianet init --help. Besides a pre-set configurations like gaianet_docs, you can also pass a URL to your own config.json for the node to be initialized to the state you'd like.

If you need to init a node installed in an alternative directory, do this.

gaianet init --base $HOME/gaianet.alt

    LlamaEdge API Server started with pid: 39796

You can start the node for local use. It will be only accessible via localhost and not available on any of the GaiaNet domain's public URLs.

gaianet start --local-only

You can also start a node installed in an alternative base directory.

gaianet start --base $HOME/gaianet.alt

Stop the node

Update configuration

Using gaianet config subcommand can update the key fields defined in the config.json file. You MUST run gaianet init again after you update the configuartion.

To update the chat field, for example, use the following command:

gaianet config --chat-url "https://huggingface.co/second-state/Llama-2-13B-Chat-GGUF/resolve/main/Llama-2-13b-chat-hf-Q5_K_M.gguf"

To update the chat_ctx_size field, for example, use the following command:

gaianet config --chat-ctx-size 5120

Below are all options of the config subcommand.

$ gaianet config --help

Usage: gaianet config [OPTIONS]
