|
|
|
|
See [dependencies.md](dependencies.md) for a complete overview.
|
|
|
|
## Preparation
|
|
|
|
### 1. Install Required Dependencies
|
|
Run the following as root to install the base dependencies for building.
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkg install autoconf automake boost-libs git gmake libevent libtool pkgconf
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Clone Dash Repo
|
|
Now that `git` and all the required dependencies are installed, let's clone the Dash Core repository to a directory. All build scripts and commands will run from this directory.
|
|
``` bash
|
|
git clone https://github.com/dashpay/dash.git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 3. Install Optional Dependencies
|
|
|
|
###### GMP
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkg install gmp
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Wallet Dependencies
|
|
It is not necessary to build wallet functionality to run dashd or the GUI. To enable legacy wallets, you must install `db5`. To enable [descriptor wallets](https://github.com/dashpay/dash/blob/master/doc/descriptors.md), `sqlite3` is required. Skip `db5` if you intend to *exclusively* use descriptor wallets
|
|
|
|
###### Legacy Wallet Support
|
|
`db5` is required to enable support for legacy wallets. Skip if you don't intend to use legacy wallets
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkg install db5
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
###### Descriptor Wallet Support
|
|
|
|
`sqlite3` is required to enable support for descriptor wallets. Skip if you don't intend to use descriptor wallets.
|
|
``` bash
|
|
pkg install sqlite3
|
|
```
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
#### GUI Dependencies
|
|
###### Qt5
|
|
|
|
Dash Core includes a GUI built with the cross-platform Qt Framework. To compile the GUI, we need to install `qt5`. Skip if you don't intend to use the GUI.
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkg install qt5
|
|
```
|
|
###### libqrencode
|
|
|
|
The GUI can encode addresses in a QR Code. To build in QR support for the GUI, install `libqrencode`. Skip if not using the GUI or don't want QR code functionality.
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkg install libqrencode
|
|
```
|
|
---
|
|
|
|
#### Test Suite Dependencies
|
|
There is an included test suite that is useful for testing code changes when developing.
|
|
To run the test suite (recommended), you will need to have Python 3 installed:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
pkg install python3
|
|
```
|
|

|
|
|
|
## Building Dash Core
|
|
|
|
### 1. Configuration
|
|
|
|
There are many ways to configure Dash Core, here are a few common examples:
|
|
##### Wallet (BDB + SQlite) Support, No GUI:
|
|
This explicitly enables legacy wallet support and disables the GUI. If `sqlite3` is installed, then descriptor wallet support will be built.
|
|
```bash
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure --with-gui=no --with-incompatible-bdb \
|
|
BDB_LIBS="-ldb_cxx-5" \
|
|
BDB_CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include/db5" \
|
|
MAKE=gmake
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
##### Wallet (only SQlite) and GUI Support:
|
|
This explicitly enables the GUI and disables legacy wallet support. If `qt5` is not installed, this will throw an error. If `sqlite3` is installed then descriptor wallet functionality will be built. If `sqlite3` is not installed, then wallet functionality will be disabled.
|
|
```bash
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure --without-bdb --with-gui=yes MAKE=gmake
|
|
```
|
|
##### No Wallet or GUI
|
|
``` bash
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure --without-wallet --with-gui=no MAKE=gmake
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 2. Compile
|
|
**Important**: Use `gmake` (the non-GNU `make` will exit with an error).
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
gmake # use -jX here for parallelism
|
|
gmake check # Run tests if Python 3 is available
|
|
```
