If you don't want to use the automatic setup scripts you can follow these alternative steps to do the manual setup.

1) Get the latest version

Using your preferred method get the latest version of this project.

  • Option 1) git clone the project.
  • Option 2) Download the latest version from Releases page.
  • Option 3) (Linux/MacOS) use a bash command like:
    • wget https://github.com/MRColorR/money4band/archive/refs/heads/main.zip && unzip main.zip
  • Option 4) (Windows) use a pwsh command like:
    • Invoke-WebRequest -Uri https://github.com/MRColorR/money4band/archive/refs/heads/main.zip -OutFile main.zip; Expand-Archive -Path main.zip -DestinationPath .\

2) Register an account on the app's sites using the following links

Using the following referral links, register on the apps' sites. You should also receive a welcome bonus and at the same time you will effortlessly show that you appreciate my work (thank you so much).

  • If you are using login with google, remember to set also a password for your app account!

3) Edit the .env file

Edit and fill in the fields of the .env file with your data. Note that you will also have to modify the docker-compose.yml file by uncommenting the relative lines.

In the .env file you can also optionally configure proxies and notifications about updates.

3.a) (Optional) Edit the docker-compose.yml file

  • If you don't want to use an app just comment or delete the corresponding section in docker-compose.yml.
  • Some apps have multiple configurations in the compose file to choose from (like the usage of docker volumes instead of volumes binding to folder). if you want to change the configuration from the default one, commenting on the options you don't want to use.

4) First Startup

4.a) First BitPing Startup

  • This step is not needed if bitping is not used. Bitping needs to be started at least once in interactive mode for the first connection: before running the entire stack with all the apps. You can configure the bitping data opening a terminal and using the following command in the folder where you have already put the .env and docker-compose.yml files:
sudo docker run --rm -it -v ${PWD}/.data/.bitping/:/root/.bitping bitping/bitping-node:latest

This will create a subfolder containing all the necessary data, then enter your credential when prompted. Once this is done, use CTRL+C to stop the container and then proceed to the standard startup as shown in 4.b).

4.b) Stack Startup

  • Start all the apps just opening a terminal in the same folder where the .env and docker-compose.yml files are placed and using the command below:
sudo docker compose up -d

After a few minutes you should be able to see the device in the dashboards of the various apps as active, connected and earning.

4.c) Register your EarnApp node in the dashboard

  • This step is not needed if EarnApp is not used. For EarnApp after the first start-up phase it is necessary to claim your device in your account. To do so just go to the earnapp dashboard and then register it by copying the node_UUID previously saved in the .env file in this URL prototype (https://earnapp.com/r/<your_device_uuid>) and then copy the resulting real URL into your web browser. Your url should look like this: https://earnapp.com/r/sdk-node-dtrbf9f1437a4287947fd58b5ka4d7. Navigating to your url should register your node in your dashboard.

4) Enjoy your passive income

  • Keep in mind if you have several ip, you can run a stack on each ip to increase revenue, but running several time this stack on same ip should not give you more. You can also install some of this apps on your smartphone and use also your mobile network to earn.
  • While the docker stack is running you can acess the web dashboard navigating with your browser to http://localhost:8081/
