cbeams commented 6 years ago

@ManfredKarrer, I've assigned you to this role, as I believe you're the only contributor running pricenode(s) at the moment.

cbeams commented 6 years ago

I've assigned @Emzy and @mrosseel here, as both are also running pricenodes, per https://github.com/bisq-network/exchange/blob/f73395f6f1e578909f81d4f3b5be80211ae3e01a/core/src/main/java/io/bisq/core/provider/ProvidersRepository.java#L37-L41

cbeams commented 6 years ago

I've just assigned myself to this role, as I have now taken over one of @ManfredKarrer's pricenodes. See the commit / PR above for details.

2018.02 report

This is my first report, now that (per the comment above), I've now taken over one of Manfred's pricenode onion addresses.

This pricenode is now backed by code at the HEAD of my cbeams/bisq-pricenode:refactor branch, which will be merged asap (see https://github.com/bisq-network/pricenode/pull/7). See my comment in Pricenode Maintainer (#5) for more details on that.

In any case, I'm servicing between 25 and 40 clients with this pricenode at any given time, and it looks like it's going to run me around $7 / month on Heroku to keep it running.

2018.03 report

Alas, I have still not finished the review and merge of bisq-network/pricenode#7, and therefore other pricenode operators have not yet upgraded to it. In the meantime, however, my pricenode instance, which is built from that PR branch, has been up and running without issue for a couple months. So I think we can call it a well-tested change at this point ;)

Note that @sqrrm attempted to start running his own pricenode this month, but ran into issues with his hosting provider. This instance was being built from the PR branch above as well, and that all seemed to work out fine for him. Good luck, @sqrrm, on getting your pricenode up and running elsewhere soon.

2018.04 report

My instance ran without any issues on Heroku this month at a cost of $7.00. I'm running v0.7.1-SNAPSHOT from commit bisq-network/bisq-pricenode@545887c.

cbeams commented 6 years ago

@Emzy and @mrosseel, could you please report here on this issue about the pricenode instances you're operating in the same way that @ManfredKarrer and I have done above? Thanks.

TODO: upgrade to new version of pricenode, since I run on docker this probably implies updating the docker file.

bisq-network/compensation#80

ManfredKarrer commented 6 years ago

My nodes are now running with the new version of price-node.

ghost commented 6 years ago

Are the price-nodes on the clearnet or on the onion side ? (Btw, I have a VPS munin master node installed and running, I will give details on https://github.com/bisq-network/bisq-monitor nextly).

ManfredKarrer commented 6 years ago

They are running as hidden service but some are accessible clearnet as well.

Per https://github.com/bisq-network/roles/issues/1#issuecomment-444857417, I'll be away for the next ~2 months, but I will leave my pricenode up and running, and should be able to respond within 24-48 hours to any requests to upgrade, etc. I will not issue any monthly updates while I'm away.
