Mac OS X Build Instructions and Notes
|
|
====================================
|
|
The commands in this guide should be executed in a Terminal application.
|
|
The built-in one is located in `/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app`.
|
|
|
|
Preparation
|
|
-----------
|
|
Install the OS X command line tools:
|
|
|
|
`xcode-select --install`
|
|
|
|
When the popup appears, click `Install`.
|
|
|
|
Then install [Homebrew](https://brew.sh).
|
|
|
|
Dependencies
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
brew install automake berkeley-db4 libtool boost miniupnpc openssl pkg-config protobuf python qt libevent qrencode
|
|
|
|
See [dependencies.md](dependencies.md) for a complete overview.
|
|
|
|
If you want to build the disk image with `make deploy` (.dmg / optional), you need RSVG
|
|
|
|
brew install librsvg
|
|
|
|
NOTE: Building with Qt4 is still supported, however, could result in a broken UI. Building with Qt5 is recommended.
|
|
|
|
Berkeley DB
|
|
-----------
|
|
It is recommended to use Berkeley DB 4.8. If you have to build it yourself,
|
|
you can use [the installation script included in contrib/](/contrib/install_db4.sh)
|
|
like so
|
|
|
|
```shell
|
|
./contrib/install_db4.sh .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
from the root of the repository.
|
|
|
|
**Note**: You only need Berkeley DB if the wallet is enabled (see the section *Disable-Wallet mode* below).
|
|
|
|
Build Bitcoin Core
|
|
------------------------
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the bitcoin source code and cd into `bitcoin`
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin
|
|
cd bitcoin
|
|
|
|
2. Build bitcoin-core:
|
|
|
|
Configure and build the headless bitcoin binaries as well as the GUI (if Qt is found).
|
|
|
|
You can disable the GUI build by passing `--without-gui` to configure.
|
|
|
|
./autogen.sh
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
|
|
3. It is recommended to build and run the unit tests:
|
|
|
|
make check
|
|
|
|
4. You can also create a .dmg that contains the .app bundle (optional):
|
|
|
|
make deploy
|
|
|
|
Running
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Bitcoin Core is now available at `./src/bitcoind`
|
|
|
|
Before running, it's recommended you create an RPC configuration file.
|
|
|
|
echo -e "rpcuser=bitcoinrpc\nrpcpassword=$(xxd -l 16 -p /dev/urandom)" > "/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/bitcoin.conf"
|
|
|
|
chmod 600 "/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/Bitcoin/bitcoin.conf"
|
|
|
|
The first time you run bitcoind, it will start downloading the blockchain. This process could take several hours.
|
|
|
|
You can monitor the download process by looking at the debug.log file:
|
|
|
|
tail -f $HOME/Library/Application\ Support/Bitcoin/debug.log
|
|
|
|
Other commands:
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
./src/bitcoind -daemon # Starts the bitcoin daemon.
|
|
./src/bitcoin-cli --help # Outputs a list of command-line options.
|
|
./src/bitcoin-cli help # Outputs a list of RPC commands when the daemon is running.
|
|
|
|
