Not Quick Start

Terminal #1

Open a Tunnel from this computer to your Raspiblitz Node. Replace 192.168.1.100 with the IP Address of your node.

ssh -NL 10009:127.0.0.1:10009 [email protected]

Enter your password when prompted and leave the terminal open. Switch to a new terminal to continue the quick start.

Terminal #2

Get Macaroon and TLS Certificate

Get the readonly.macaroon and tls.cert from your node

boostcli boosts --help

Run Command

$ boostcli --macaroon /mnt/hdd/app-data/lnd/data/chain/bitcoin/mainnet/admin.macaroon --tlscert /mnt/hdd/app-data/lnd/tls.cert boost https://mp3s.nashownotes.com/pc20rss.xml

Virtual Environment Explained

Using a Python Virtual Environment is optional but highly recommended and is standard practice with development. The basic idea is you create a virtual environment for each project and install all the dependencies into it. The Virtual Environment only needs to be created once but must be activated every time a new terminal is opened.

Create Virtual Environment

python3 -m venv venv

Activate Environment

source venv/bin/activate

Deactivate Environment

deactivate
