Hosting a Lokinet Exit - A Guide for the Lazy
This is a super abridged guide on setting up a lokinet exit node inside docker.
prepare the host
docker using apt:
$ sudo apt install docker docker-compose wget
grab the docker-compose.yml
$ mkdir -p /usr/local/exit/
$ wget https://github.com/oxen-io/oxen-docker/raw/main/lokinet/docker-compose.yml -O /usr/local/exit/docker-compose.yml
turn it on
put the exit node up:
$ cd /usr/local/exit && docker-compose up -d
now get the exit node's .loki
address:
$ cd /usr/local/exit && docker-compose exec lokinet print-lokinet-address.sh
client usage
your exit node is now usable, you can turn it on on a lokient client using the lokinet-vpn
command:
$ lokinet-vpn --up --exit putyourexitaddresshere
updating
Ocassionally you'll want to update the docker images, you can do that using this command:
$ cd /usr/local/exit && docker-compose pull && docker-compose restart
OH GOD OH FUCK OH GOD
your exit is ready, enjoy the packets.
