# Osmosis Generated on 28 Sep 2023 from [the Osmosis catalog page](https://marketplace.digitalocean.com/apps/osmosis) Osmosis is an advanced automated market maker (AMM) protocol that allows developers to build customized AMMs with sovereign liquidity pools. Built using the Cosmos SDK, Osmosis utilizes Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) to enable cross-chain transactions. ## Software Included | Package | Version | License | |---|---|---| | Osmosis | [15.2.0](https://github.com/osmosis-labs/osmosis/releases/tag/v15.2.0) | [Apache 2](https://github.com/osmosis-labs/osmosis/blob/main/LICENSE) | ## Creating an App using the Control Panel Click the **Deploy to DigitalOcean** button to create a Droplet based on this 1-Click App. If you aren’t logged in, this link will prompt you to log in with your DigitalOcean account. [![Deploy to DO](https://www.deploytodo.com/do-btn-blue.svg)](https://cloud.digitalocean.com/droplets/new?image=osmosislabs-osmosis) ## Creating an App using the API In addition to creating a Droplet from the Osmosis 1-Click App using the control panel, you can also use the [DigitalOcean API](https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api). As an example, to create a 4GB Osmosis Droplet in the SFO2 region, you can use the following `curl` command. You need to either save your [API access token](https://docs.digitalocean.com/reference/api/create-personal-access-token/index.html.md) to an environment variable or substitute it in the command below. ```shell curl -X POST -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \ -H 'Authorization: Bearer '$TOKEN'' -d \ '{"name":"choose_a_name","region":"sfo2","size":"s-2vcpu-4gb","image":"osmosislabs-osmosis"}' \ "https://api.digitalocean.com/v2/droplets" ``` ## Getting Started After Deploying Osmosis ## Interacting with the Osmosis Network Using the One-Click Droplet Once the Osmosis One-Click Droplet is created, you can log into it as `root`: ``` ssh root@your_droplet_public_ipv4 ``` You are now running a client and can interact with the Osmosis network using the `osmosisd` binary: ``` osmosisd status --node https://rpc.osmosis.zone:443 ``` ## Joining mainnet To join the `osmosis-1` mainnet, run: ``` /root/join.sh ``` ## Joining testnet To join the `osmo-test-5` testnet, run: ``` /root/join.sh ``` ## Other setups For all other setups, please run the Osmosis installer: ``` source <(curl -sL https://get.osmosis.zone/run) ``` .
