Sett Var for easy installation

Please read with carefully don't only copy and paste.!!!

echo "export WALLET="wallet name"" >> $HOME/.bash_profile
echo "export MONIKER="your node name"" >> $HOME/.bash_profile
echo "export ZENROCK_CHAIN_ID="gardia-2"" >> $HOME/.bash_profile
echo "export ZENROCK_PORT="your own port"" >> $HOME/.bash_profile
source $HOME/.bash_profile

Download the binary

cd $HOME
curl -o zenrockd https://releases.gardia.zenrocklabs.io/zenrockd-latest
chmod +x $HOME/zenrockd
mv $HOME/zenrockd $HOME/go/bin/

Configure and initialize

zenrockd init $MONIKER --chain-id $ZENROCK_CHAIN_ID
zenrockd config set client chain-id $ZENROCK_CHAIN_ID
zenrockd config set client node tcp://localhost:${ZENROCK_PORT}657

Download adrbook and genesis file

wget -O $HOME/.zrchain/config/genesis.json https://server4.testnet.nodevism.com/zenrock/genesis.json
wget -O $HOME/.zrchain/config/addrbook.json  https://server4.testnet.nodevism.com/zenrock/addrbook.json

Configure the prunning

sed -i -e "s/^pruning *=.*/pruning = \"custom\"/" $HOME/.zrchain/config/app.toml 
sed -i -e "s/^pruning-keep-recent *=.*/pruning-keep-recent = \"50\"/" $HOME/.zrchain/config/app.toml
sed -i -e "s/^pruning-interval *=.*/pruning-interval = \"20\"/" $HOME/.zrchain/config/app.toml

Sett gas price,prometheus and disable indexing

disabled indexing is optional but i better for safe the resource's

sed -i 's|minimum-gas-prices =.*|minimum-gas-prices = "0urock"|g' $HOME/.zrchain/config/app.toml
sed -i -e "s/prometheus = false/prometheus = true/" $HOME/.zrchain/config/config.toml
sed -i -e "s/^indexer *=.*/indexer = \"null\"/" $HOME/.zrchain/config/config.toml

Sett custom port for config.toml

sed -i.bak -e "s%:26658%:${ZENROCK_PORT}658%g;
s%:26657%:${ZENROCK_PORT}657%g;
s%:6060%:${ZENROCK_PORT}060%g;
s%:26656%:${ZENROCK_PORT}656%g;
s%^external_address = \"\"%external_address = \"$(wget -qO- eth0.me):${ZENROCK_PORT}656\"%;
s%:26660%:${ZENROCK_PORT}660%g" $HOME/.zrchain/config/config.toml

Sett custom port for app.toml

sed -i.bak -e "s%:1317%:${ZENROCK_PORT}317%g;
s%:8080%:${ZENROCK_PORT}080%g;
s%:9090%:${ZENROCK_PORT}090%g;
s%:9091%:${ZENROCK_PORT}091%g;
s%:8545%:${ZENROCK_PORT}545%g;
s%:8546%:${ZENROCK_PORT}546%g;
s%:6065%:${ZENROCK_PORT}065%g" $HOME/.zrchain/config/app.toml

apply snapshot

zenrockd tendermint unsafe-reset-all --home $HOME/.zrchain
if curl -s --head curl https://server4.testnet.nodevism.com/zenrock/latest_20241104.tar.lz4 | head -n 1 | grep "200" > /dev/null; then

    else
  echo "no snapshot found"
fi

Activating the service 🔥

sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable zenrockd
sudo systemctl restart zenrockd && sudo journalctl -u zenrockd -f
