Ubuntu

The following instructions were tested on a freshly installed Ubuntu LTS 18.04 system.

Download MagicMirror Executable

MagicMirror Linux executable can be downloaded here. The downloaded file needs to be unzipped.

Install Dependency

The only dependency MagicMirror needs based on a freshly installed Ubuntu LTS 18.04 system is the Java Runtime Environment(JRE) 11, which can be installed using the following commands.

apt update
apt install openjdk-11-jre-headless -y

Change Permission

You may encounter Permission Denied issue when executing the magic_mirror executable. This is likely due to Ubuntu setting the file to be non-executable by default. You can execute the following command to make the file executable in the same directory of the magic_mirror file.

sudo chmod a+x ./magic_mirror

Running MagicMirror

MagicMirror has two modes, single-file-mode and batch-mode, which corresponds to executing a single contract, or a batch of contracts. You can find the quick start and more details for running MagicMirror in these modes in single-file-mode and batch-mode.
