Getting Started with Gapi on Jetson

Execution model

Run one phase at a time. After each phase:

• Relay all command output to the user.
• If output contains [STOP] → stop immediately, consult the failure decision tree below.
• If output ends with [OK] → tell the user "Phase N complete" and proceed to the next phase.

Prerequisites

Phase 1 — Install Gapi server (~5 min)

mkdir ~/gapiData && cd ~/gapiData
curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/genai-nerds/Gapi/main/gapiConfigs.zip -o gapiConfigs.zip
unzip -q gapiConfigs.zip
docker run -d --name gapi --network host -v ~/gapiData:/opt/gapi/vdata genainerds/gapi:arm64 /bin/bash -c "cd /opt/gapi/bin && ./startGapi.sh"

Verify the container is running:

docker ps | grep gapi

[OK] when the gapi container is listed as running. [STOP] if Docker pull or container start fails.

Phase 2 — Log in to Gapi WebUI (~1 min)

Open a browser and navigate to:

http://<jetson-ip>:8090

Default credentials:

• User: root
• Password: !gapi2024

Change the password in Settings after first login. SSL cert setup is covered in the Gapi docs.

[OK] when you can log in and see the Gapi dashboard.

Phase 3 — Explore workflows and micro services

Workflows visually connect Nodes that talk to Micro Services and APIs. Each Node can append or reference rolling Transaction data.

To set up Community Micro Services:

1. Go to the Micro Services tab in the Gapi UI
2. Follow the instructions in the blue box to download your custom configuration
3. Follow the per-service install instructions below that

Community Micro Service storage requirements: ~4 GB to ~10 GB each.

[OK] when at least one micro service is connected and visible in the UI.

For workflow tips, micro service architecture details, and custom on_message handlers, see references/source.body.md.
