    Configuring Beaconcha.in HW Monitoring for Nimbus Smartnode

Disclaimer

It's generally a Bad Idea to run random scripts from the internet on your node unless you know what they're doing.
To that end, please read and try to understand this before installing it, and only install it if you feel comfortable.
Installation

Make a new docker-compose.yml file in your home directory:
touch ~/docker-compose.yml
Edit it with your favorite text editor, eg nano ~/docker-compose.yml
Populate it like this (you need to fill in YOUR_API_KEY, which you can get in your beaconcha.in account settings, and YOUR_NODE_NAME which can be any string (without spaces):
version: "3.7"
services:
  eth2-client-metrics-exporter:
    image: gobitfly/eth2-client-metrics-exporter
    container_name: eth2-client-metrics-exporter
    restart: unless-stopped
    command:
      - --server.address=https://beaconcha.in/api/v1/client/metrics?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY&machine=YOUR_NODE_NAME
      - --system.partition=/host/rootfs
      - --beaconnode.type=nimbus
      - --beaconnode.address=http://eth2:9100/metrics
    volumes:
      - /sys:/host/sys:ro
      - /proc:/host/proc:ro
      - /:/host/rootfs:ro
    environment:
      - HOST_PROC=/host/proc
      - HOST_SYS=/host/sys
networks:
  default:
    name: rocketpool_net
    external: true

Then, pull the image with docker compose pull

Start the container with docker compose up -d
Note: The beaconcha.in app has a 10 to 15 minute delay before data will start to show up.
Maintenance

Periodically, you may want to update the image by running docker compose pull and then docker compose up -d.
If you need to check the logs to debug, you can use docker logs eth2-client-metrics-exporter
