Quick Install - Download

We are logged into your freshly installed VPS and will begin our installation.

Download nodectl

We can download nodectl using the linux curl command; however, we do not need to worry about how to use this command.

Instead we can reach out to the nodectl GitHub repo and copy the command used to download, setup permissions, and move to the proper location on your VPS to function properly.

Download nodectl from the StardustCollective GitHub repository.

Example Only From our assumptions we will pull down v2.15.2 with the following command, but please make sure you only download a version with the Latest tag.

sudo wget -N https://github.com/stardustcollective/nodectl/releases/download/v2.15.2/nodectl_x86_64 -P /usr/local/bin -O /usr/local/bin/nodectl; sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/nodectl; sudo nodectl -v
ubuntu@ip-172-31-23-246:~$ sudo wget -N https://github.com/stardustcollective/nodectl/releases/download/v2.15.2/nodectl_x86_64 -P /usr/local/bin -O /usr/local/bin/nodectl; sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/nodectl; sudo nodectl -v

Output

nodectl will be downloaded and you should see the version information at the end of the command results. This will confirm that nodectl is downloaded, placed in the proper location, and executable.
