DuniterNodeManager

DuniterNodeManager is a minimal graphical tool to manage a Duniter node. With this application, you can:

• Connect to your server via SSH (password and keys supported).
• Edit configuration files.
• Start/stop the Duniter node and the oracle.
• View logs directly within the interface.

Features

• Graphical Interface: Manage your Duniter node through an easy-to-use GUI.
• SSH Support: Connect to your server securely.
• Cross-Platform: Available for Windows, MacOS, and Linux.

Server Configuration

To run certain systemctl commands (e.g., starting and stopping services) without a password prompt, you can configure sudo for passwordless access. Follow the steps below:

1. Edit the sudoers File for Passwordless Commands

Next, modify the sudoers file to allow a user (e.g., benjamin) to run specific systemctl commands without a password prompt.

1. Open the sudoers file with visudo:

   sudo visudo

2. Add the following lines at the end of the sudoers file. This will allow the user benjamin to run systemctl commands for starting and stopping the duniter-smith, duniter-mirror, and distance-oracle.timer services, as well as manage the Duniter node, without entering a password:

   benjamin ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl start duniter-smith.service
   benjamin ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl stop duniter-smith.service
   
   benjamin ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl start duniter-mirror.service
   benjamin ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl stop duniter-mirror.service
   
   benjamin ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl start distance-oracle.timer
   benjamin ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/systemctl stop distance-oracle.timer
   
   benjamin ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/cat /etc/duniter/env_file
   benjamin ALL=NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/tee /etc/duniter/env_file

3. Save the changes and exit visudo. The changes should take effect immediately.
