Setup
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
[Bitcoin-Qt](http://bitcoin.org/en/download) is the original Bitcoin client and it builds the backbone of the network. However, it downloads and stores the entire history of Bitcoin transactions; depending on the speed of your computer and network connection, the synchronization process can take anywhere from a few hours to a day or more.
|
||||
|
||||
### Unix
|
||||
|
||||
You need the Qt4 run-time libraries to run Bitcoin-Qt. On Debian or Ubuntu:
|
||||
`sudo apt-get install libqtgui4`
|
||||
|
||||
sudo apt-get install libqtgui4

Bitcoin-Qt Readme
|
||||
===============================
|
||||
Contains build and configuration instructions for Bitcoin-Qt (Qt4 GUI for Bitcoin).
|
||||
|
||||
Build Instructions
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
### Debian
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
First, make sure that the required packages for Qt4 development of your
|
||||
distribution are installed, these are
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
for Debian and Ubuntu <= 11.10 :
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \
|
||||
libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \
|
||||
libssl-dev libdb4.8++-dev
|
||||
|
||||
for Ubuntu >= 12.04 (please read the 'Berkely DB version warning' below):
|
||||
|
||||
apt-get install qt4-qmake libqt4-dev build-essential libboost-dev libboost-system-dev \
|
||||
libboost-filesystem-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-thread-dev \
|
||||
libssl-dev libdb++-dev libminiupnpc-dev
|
||||
|
||||
For Qt 5 you need the following, otherwise you get an error with lrelease when running qmake:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
apt-get install qt5-qmake libqt5gui5 libqt5core5 libqt5dbus5 qttools5-dev-tools
|
||||
|
||||
then execute the following:
|
||||
|
||||
qmake
|
||||
make
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, install [Qt Creator](http://qt-project.org/downloads/) and open the `bitcoin-qt.pro` file.
|
||||
An executable named `bitcoin-qt` will be built.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Mac OS X
|
||||
|
||||
* Download and install the [Qt Mac OS X SDK](https://qt-project.org/downloads). It is recommended to also install Apple's Xcode with UNIX tools.
|
||||
* Download and install either [MacPorts](https://www.macports.org/) or [HomeBrew](http://mxcl.github.io/homebrew/).
|
||||
* Execute the following commands in a terminal to get the dependencies using MacPorts
|
||||
|
||||
sudo port selfupdate
|
||||
sudo port install boost db48 miniupnpc
|
||||
|
||||
* Execute the following commands in a terminal to get the dependencies using HomeBrew:
|
||||
|
||||
brew update
|
||||
brew install boost miniupnpc openssl berkeley-db4
|
||||
|
||||
- If using HomeBrew, edit `bitcoin-qt.pro` to account for library location differences. There's a diff in `contrib/homebrew/bitcoin-qt-pro.patch` that shows what you need to change, or you can just patch by doing
|
||||
|
||||
patch -p1 < contrib/homebrew/bitcoin.qt.pro.patch
|
||||
|
||||
- Open the bitcoin-qt.pro file in Qt Creator and build as normal (cmd+B)
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Build Configuration Options
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
### UPnP port forwarding
|
||||
|
||||
To use UPnP for port forwarding behind a NAT router (recommended, as more connections overall allow for a faster and more stable bitcoin experience), pass the following argument to qmake:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
qmake "USE_UPNP=1"
|
||||
|
||||
(in **Qt Creator**, you can find the setting for additional qmake arguments under "Projects" -> "Build Settings" -> "Build Steps", then click "Details" next to **qmake**)
|
||||
|
||||
This requires miniupnpc for UPnP port mapping. It can be downloaded from [here](
|
||||
http://miniupnp.tuxfamily.org/files/). UPnP support is not compiled in by default.
|
||||
|
||||
Set USE_UPNP to a different value to control this:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
USE_UPNP=- no UPnP support, miniupnpc not required;
|
||||
USE_UPNP=0 (the default) built with UPnP, support turned off by default at runtime;
|
||||
USE_UPNP=1 build with UPnP support turned on by default at runtime.
|
||||
|
||||
### Notification support for recent (k)ubuntu versions
|
||||
|
||||
To see desktop notifications on (k)ubuntu versions starting from 10.04, enable usage of the
|
||||
FreeDesktop notification interface through DBUS using the following qmake option:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
qmake "USE_DBUS=1"
|
||||
|
||||
### Generation of QR codes
|
||||
|
||||
[libqrencode](http://fukuchi.org/works/qrencode/) may be used to generate QRCode images for payment requests. Pass the USE_QRCODE flag to qmake to control this:
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
USE_QRCODE=0 (the default) No QRCode support - libarcode not required
|
||||
USE_QRCODE=1 QRCode support enabled
|
||||
|
||||
Warnings
|
||||
---------------------
|
||||
|
||||
### Berkely DB Version Warning
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
A warning for people using the *static binary* version of Bitcoin on a Linux/UNIX-ish system (tl;dr: **Berkely DB databases are not forward compatible**).
|
||||
|
||||
The static binary version of Bitcoin is linked against libdb4.8 (see also [this Debian issue](http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=621425)).
|
||||
|
||||
Now the nasty thing is that databases from 5.X are not compatible with 4.X.
|
||||
|
||||
If the globally installed development package of Berkely DB installed on your system is 5.X, any source you build yourself will be linked against that. The first time you run with a 5.X version the database will be upgraded, and 4.X cannot open the new format. This means that you cannot go back to the old statically linked version without significant hassle!
|
||||
|
||||
### Ubuntu 11.10 Warning
|
||||
|
||||

Ubuntu 11.10 has a package called 'qt-at-spi' installed by default. At the time of writing, having that package installed causes bitcoin-qt to crash intermittently. The issue has been reported as [launchpad bug 857790](https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/qt-at-spi/+bug/857790), but
|
||||
isn't yet fixed.
|
||||
|
||||
Until the bug is fixed, you can remove the qt-at-spi package to work around the problem, though this will presumably disable screen reader functionality for Qt apps:
|
||||
|
||||
sudo apt-get remove qt-at-spi

TOR SUPPORT IN BITCOIN
|
||||
======================
|
||||
|
||||
It is possible to run Bitcoin as a Tor hidden service, and connect to such services.
|
||||
|
||||
The following directions assume you have a Tor proxy running on port 9050. Many distributions default to having a SOCKS proxy listening on port 9050, but others may not. In particular, the Tor Browser Bundle defaults to listening on a random port. See [Tor Project FAQ:TBBSocksPort](https://www.torproject.org/docs/faq.html.en#TBBSocksPort) for how to properly
|
||||
configure Tor.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
1. Run bitcoin behind a Tor proxy
|
||||
---------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
The first step is running Bitcoin behind a Tor proxy. This will already make all
|
||||
outgoing connections be anonimized, but more is possible.
|
||||
|
||||
-socks=5 SOCKS5 supports connecting-to-hostname, which can be used instead
|
||||
of doing a (leaking) local DNS lookup. SOCKS5 is the default,
|
||||
but SOCKS4 does not support this. (SOCKS4a does, but isn't
|
||||
implemented).
|
||||
|
||||
-proxy=ip:port Set the proxy server. If SOCKS5 is selected (default), this proxy
|
||||
server will be used to try to reach .onion addresses as well.
|
||||
|
||||
-tor=ip:port Set the proxy server to use for tor hidden services. You do not
|
||||
need to set this if it's the same as -proxy. You can use -notor
|
||||
to explicitly disable access to hidden service.
|
||||
|
||||
-listen When using -proxy, listening is disabled by default. If you want
|
||||
to run a hidden service (see next section), you'll need to enable
|
||||
it explicitly.
|
||||
|
||||
-connect=X When behind a Tor proxy, you can specify .onion addresses instead
|
||||
-addnode=X of IP addresses or hostnames in these parameters. It requires
|
||||
-seednode=X SOCKS5. In Tor mode, such addresses can also be exchanged with
|
||||
other P2P nodes.
|
||||
|
||||
In a typical situation, this suffices to run behind a Tor proxy:
|
||||
|
||||
./bitcoin -proxy=127.0.0.1:9050
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
2. Run a bitcoin hidden server
|
||||
------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
If you configure your Tor system accordingly, it is possible to make your node also
|
||||
reachable from the Tor network. Add these lines to your /etc/tor/torrc (or equivalent
|
||||
config file):
|
||||
|
||||
HiddenServiceDir /var/lib/tor/bitcoin-service/
|
||||
HiddenServicePort 8333 127.0.0.1:8333
|
||||
|
||||
The directory can be different of course, but (both) port numbers should be equal to
|
||||
your bitcoind's P2P listen port (8333 by default).
|
||||
|
||||
-externalip=X You can tell bitcoin about its publicly reachable address using
|
||||
this option, and this can be a .onion address. Given the above
|
||||
configuration, you can find your onion address in
|
||||
/var/lib/tor/bitcoin-service/hostname. Onion addresses are given
|
||||
preference for your node to advertize itself with, for connections
|
||||
coming from unroutable addresses (such as 127.0.0.1, where the
|
||||
Tor proxy typically runs).
|
||||
|
||||
-listen You'll need to enable listening for incoming connections, as this
|
||||
is off by default behind a proxy.
|
||||
|
||||
-discover When -externalip is specified, no attempt is made to discover local
|
||||
IPv4 or IPv6 addresses. If you want to run a dual stack, reachable
|
||||
from both Tor and IPv4 (or IPv6), you'll need to either pass your
|
||||
other addresses using -externalip, or explicitly enable -discover.
|
||||
Note that both addresses of a dual-stack system may be easily
|
||||
linkable using traffic analysis.
|
||||
|
||||
In a typical situation, where you're only reachable via Tor, this should suffice:
|
||||
|
||||
./bitcoind -proxy=127.0.0.1:9050 -externalip=57qr3yd1nyntf5k.onion -listen
|
||||
|
||||
(obviously, replace the Onion address with your own). If you don't care too much
|
||||
about hiding your node, and want to be reachable on IPv4 as well, additionally
|
||||
specify:
|
||||
|
||||
./bitcoind ... -discover
|
||||
|
||||
and open port 8333 on your firewall (or use -upnp).
|
||||
|
||||
If you only want to use Tor to reach onion addresses, but not use it as a proxy
|
||||
for normal IPv4/IPv6 communication, use:
|
||||
|
||||
./bitcoin -tor=127.0.0.1:9050 -externalip=57qr3yd1nyntf5k.onion -discover

||||
