Runner Replica

Runner for checking Internet Computer replica proposals

Getting Started

Clone, then do "npm install" in both fargate_task and lambda.

If you want to run the fargate_task, inside it:

• npx runner

If you want to run the lambda:

• in index.mjs make sure you call handler();
• then run it: node index.mjs

Requirements

It requires you to create an AWS Secrets, an AWS Parameter Store and a cloud server (like Hetzner).

Pretty much, the lambda is checking the open proposals, and if open, stores the new ids on the Parameter Store. Then on the fargate task:

• it uses the ssh key access in AWS Secrets to call the Hetzner server and run it.
• and the mail credentials on AWS Secrets to send email results.

Cloud Server Instructions

Cloud server should have the capacity and OS requested by the replica script.

It should already have installed:

• podman

It requires that you have access to it through ssh console. Then please update AWS SECRETS and the config.js file of the fargate_task.

Updating Docker Image

AWS Fargate runs a task, that is a Docker image.

That image is stored in AWS ECR public repository: https://gallery.ecr.aws/i2c0e4t6

If you don't have access, feel free to request access to Tiago or to create a public repo on your own (and update the commands below to your url).

Steps

1. Ensure you have aws cli and Docker desktop installed. Sign in with any account on your Docker Desktop.

2. Command to generate authentication token:

   • aws ecr-public get-login-password --region us-east-1 | docker login --username AWS --password-stdin public.ecr.aws/i2c0e4t6

3. Commands to update it (after authentication):

   • docker build -t runner-replica . (or, if on M1/M2: docker buildx build --platform=linux/amd64 -t runner-replica .)
   • docker tag runner-replica:latest public.ecr.aws/i2c0e4t6/runner-replica:latest
   • docker push public.ecr.aws/i2c0e4t6/runner-replica:latest

Roadmap

v0:

• setup Hetzner
• copy manual script
• improve format

v1:

• run long task (AWS Fargate)
• add DSCVR notifier of result
• add email notifier

v1.1:

• add automatic trigger (AWS Lambda)

v2:

• make it easy for anyone to fork and config with their credentials
