Hi everyone,
I’d like to share the Fiber Node Installer, a tool I built to make it much easier to set up and run your own Fiber Network node, either locally or on a remote server.
GitHub: GitHub - tecmeup123/fiber-node-installer · GitHub
The goal is to reduce setup friction and help more people join the Fiber ecosystem. The installer is designed to be interactive and beginner-friendly, with guided setup for Windows and Ubuntu/Debian, optional dashboard installation, firewall configuration, background service setup, and optional weekly auto-updates.
It supports both mainnet and testnet, so people can try it in a safer environment before moving to real funds.
What you get:
- A running Fiber node for fast, Lightning-style payments on CKB
- An optional private web dashboard for managing your node
- Easier setup on both local machines and remote servers
- Support for channels, peers, payments, invoices, wallet access, and network visibility
- Automatic handling for important setup steps like firewall rules, service setup, and updates
The optional dashboard helps make node management much more approachable. From it, you can:
- Check node status, uptime, balances, and routing activity
- Open and close channels
- Connect to peers
- Send payments and create invoices
- View the network graph
- Manage wallet and RPC settings
Security was also a big focus. The installer is designed so the node RPC and dashboard are not exposed publicly, and on Linux the dashboard is accessed through an SSH tunnel rather than being opened to the internet.
If you have some time today, I’d really appreciate people testing it out and sharing feedback. I’m especially interested in:
- First-time setup experience
- Bugs or edge cases
- Dashboard UX feedback
- Anything confusing in the install flow or documentation
The repo includes one-line install options for Linux/VPS and a PowerShell installer for Windows, with the aim of making Fiber node deployment much more accessible for new users, builders, and node operators.
If you try it, please let me know how it goes. Feedback, suggestions, and issue reports are very welcome.
大家好，
我想分享一下我做的 Fiber Node Installer，这是一个帮助用户更轻松部署和运行 Fiber Network 节点的工具，无论是在本地机器还是远程服务器上都可以使用。
GitHub: GitHub - tecmeup123/fiber-node-installer · GitHub
这个工具的目标是降低安装和部署门槛，让更多人能够更容易参与 Fiber 生态。安装器采用交互式引导方式，对新手也比较友好，支持 Windows 和 Ubuntu/Debian，包含可选的 Dashboard 安装、防火墙配置、后台服务设置，以及每周自动更新选项。
它同时支持主网和测试网，因此用户可以先在测试环境中体验，再决定是否迁移到真实资金环境。
你可以获得的功能包括：
- 一个可运行的 Fiber 节点，用于 CKB 上的快速、类 Lightning 支付体验
- 一个可选的私有 Web Dashboard，用于管理节点
- 更简单的本地或远程服务器部署流程
- 支持管理通道、节点连接、支付、发票、钱包和网络状态
- 自动处理防火墙规则、后台服务和更新等关键配置步骤
这个可选 Dashboard 可以让节点管理更加直观和易用。通过它，你可以：
- 查看节点状态、在线时间、余额和路由收入
- 打开和关闭通道
- 连接和管理对等节点
- 发送支付和创建发票
- 查看网络拓扑图
- 管理钱包和 RPC 设置
安全性也是这个工具重点考虑的部分。安装器默认不会将节点 RPC 和 Dashboard 暴露到公网，在 Linux 环境下，Dashboard 通过 SSH 隧道访问，而不是直接开放到互联网。
如果你今天有时间，我非常希望大家可以试用一下并给我反馈。我尤其想了解：
- 第一次安装的体验是否顺畅
- 是否遇到 bug 或边缘问题
- Dashboard 的使用体验如何
- 安装流程或文档中是否有不清楚的地方
这个仓库提供了 Linux/VPS 的一行安装方式，也提供了 Windows 的 PowerShell 安装脚本，希望能让更多新用户、开发者和节点运营者更轻松地部署 Fiber 节点。
如果你愿意试用，非常欢迎告诉我你的体验。任何反馈、建议和 issue 都非常感谢。
