Prerequisites

• PostgreSQL installed on your machine

Setup Guide

Here’s how to set up your ADAMANT 2FA application:

• Clone the repository and install dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/Adamant-im/adamant-2fa.git
cd adamant-2fa
npm install
cd client
yarn install
cd ..

• Create a database user and database:

sudo -u postgres psql
postgres=# CREATE USER adamant-2fa WITH PASSWORD 'password';
postgres=# CREATE DATABASE adamant-2fa WITH OWNER adamant-2fa;

• Set up md5 authentication method by updating the pg_hba.conf file:

postgres=# SHOW hba_file;

• Update the hba_file and restart PostgreSQL:

sudo nano /usr/local/var/postgresql/pg_hba.conf
# Add the following line:
local   adamant-2fa  adamant-2fa        md5
sudo service postgresql restart

Configuration Steps

Next, create tables for Loopback models:

cd server
node create-lb-tables.js
cd ..

Set up your ADAMANT passphrase to send 2FA codes:

cp config.default.json config.json
nano config.json

Enter your ADM passphrase into the passPhrase field in the config.json file. Ensure that this account has sufficient ADM to send messages with 2FA codes. If you’re unsure how to create an ADM account, follow this guide on creating ADM account and getting free tokens.

Launching the Application

You can run the application in different modes:

• Serve in Development Mode:

node .
cd client
yarn serve

• Build and Serve:

cd client
yarn build
yarn serve-build

• Launch using a Process Manager (e.g., pm2):

pm2 start ./server/server.js --name 2fa-demo-server
pm2 start ./client/server.js --name 2fa-demo-client

Connecting ADAMANT 2FA to Your Service

If you have a service (such as an email provider, exchange, or any financial interface) and wish to enhance user security via 2FA, simply clone this project and make necessary modifications to the client and server components. For detailed instructions, refer to this article on how to connect ADAMANT 2FA to your business.

Troubleshooting

Should you encounter issues while setting up or using ADAMANT 2FA, consider the following troubleshooting tips:

• If the app does not send 2FA codes, the debug console may show success: false and errorMessage: Wrong passPhrase parameter. Make sure you have created config.json in the root directory (where package.json is located) and correctly set the passPhrase and network parameters.
• Ensure the ADAMANT console tool does not have conflicting configurations; it should be set to mainnet with the correct passphrase.
• Familiarize yourself with logging functionalities to track down conditions within your application more effectively.
