## Custom Add-ons for Sovran_SystemsOS and The Sovran Pro
Add-ons are extra features you can have enabled before your Sovran Pro is shipped to you or you can enable them yourself.
## The information about each Feature
1. Since Sovran_SystemsOS runs Bitcoin Knots by default as opposed to Bitcion Core, you can customize your Sovran Pro's Bitcoin node to run Bitcoin Core.

2. BIP-110 keeps Bitcoin more efficient as Peer to Peer Cash and you can run it along side your Bitocoin node.

## The DIY for each Feature
All code belongs in the `custom.nix` file located at `/etc/nixos/custom.nix`.
If you would like to enable these features yourself after you have received your Sovran Pro, then open the *terminal* app and type or paste in
```bash
ssh root@localhost
```
Type in the password in the diaolog box if necessary. It is the same password to run the Sovran_Systems_Updater app.
Then press enter.
Next, type or paste in
```bash
nano /etc/nixos/custom.nix
```
Then press enter.
Next type or paste the codes below *(Code for each Feature)* each on their own line into the termainl/nano window right above the last `}`
Once done, press `ctr s` then `ctr x` to save and exit.
Last, type or paste in
```bash
nixos-rebuild switch --impure
```
Then press enter.
After it is done bulding, reboot your Sovran Pro typeing or pasting in
```bash
reboot
```

sovran_systemsOS.features.mempool = lib.mkForce true;
```
4. The code to enable Haven Relay is as follows (also Haven will need a new domain to work):

sovran_systemsOS.nostr_npub = "pasteyournpubhere";
```
