faucet-package | A package builder for mobilecoind-dev-faucet deployment

Start by getting a cloud machine somewhere. I used Amazon Lightsail with 2 GB RAM, 1 vCPUs, 60 GB SSD. I configured a machine with OS-only and selected Ubuntu 22.04. Then, get a prompt in the container. You will need to install supervisord and nginx. You will need to further fix-up the default nginx install. You can use wget to fetch the pre-created package and install it with tar. (Below we have a one-liner using jq that finds and fetches the latest release.). The package will include an example account key which holds the funds of the faucet. This key is installed as /var/lib/faucet/account_key_example.json. You should copy this file to account_key.json, and modify the mnemonic, replacing it with a secret mnemonic that you control. Then, run supervisorctl. You can use reload to start the services. To monitor the services using supervisorctl, you can use the commands status and tail -f mobilecoind or tail -f faucet to look at logs. You can also stop and start the services using supervisorctl. You can also look at the /var/log/mobilecoind.log and /var/log/faucet.log files on disk, outside of supervisorctl.
