Getting started
===============
Electrum is a pure python application. If you want to use the
Qt interface, install the Qt dependencies.
If you downloaded the official package (tar.gz), you can run
Electrum from its root directory, without installing it on your
system; all the python dependencies are included in the 'packages'
directory. To run Electrum from its root directory, just do::
./electrum
If you cloned the git repository, you need to compile extra files
before you can run Electrum. Read the next section, "Development
Version".
Development version
===================
Check out the code from Github::
git clone git://github.com/BTCP-community/electrum-zcl.git
cd electrum-zcl
For Mac:
--------
Using Homebrew::
# Install Homebrew
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
# (Optionally)
sudo chown -R "$USER":admin /usr/local
sudo chown -R "$USER":admin /Library/Caches/Homebrew
# Install python3
brew install python3
brew link python3
brew postinstall python3
# Python setuptools
curl https://bootstrap.pypa.io/ez_setup.py -o - | python3
# Install pyqt5
pip3 install pyqt5
# Install Protobuf
brew install protobuf
# Setup
python3 setup.py install
# Build icons
pyrcc5 icons.qrc -o gui/qt/icons_rc.py
# Run
./electrum
`(Alternatively, copy the generated "build/scripts-3.6/electrum" to the main directory)`::
cp -f build/scripts-3.6/electrum electrum-mac
./electrum-mac
For Linux:
----------
Install Dependencies::
sudo apt-get install python3-pip python3-setuptools python3-dev python3-pyqt5
sudo pip2 install pyblake2
pip3 install pyqt5
python3 setup.py install
# OPTIONAL: Install without sudo -
# If you do not have a dir located at /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/
# you will need to create this before running the install.
mkdir /usr/local/lib/python3.6/site-packages/
Compile the icons file for Qt::
sudo apt-get install pyqt5-dev-tools
pyrcc5 icons.qrc -o gui/qt/icons_rc.py
For the Linux app launcher (start menu) icon::
sudo desktop-file-install electrum.desktop
Compile the protobuf description file::
sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler
protoc --proto_path=lib/ --python_out=lib/ lib/paymentrequest.proto
Create translations (optional)::
sudo apt-get install python-requests gettext
./contrib/make_locale
Run::
./electrum
Building Releases
=================
MacOS
------
Simply - ::
sh ./setup-mac.sh
sudo sh ./install-mac.sh
Windows
-------
See `contrib/build-wine/README` file.
Android
-------
See `gui/kivy/Readme.txt` file.
---
To just create binaries, create the 'packages/' directory::
./contrib/make_packages
(This directory contains the Python dependencies used by Electrum.)
ZCL Hints and Debug
===================
There are several useful scripts in::
scripts
This is a good initial check to determine whether things are working.::
cd scripts
python3 block_headers
It should run, validating chunks without error.
Also be sure to check out:::
~/.electrum-zcl/
~/.electrum-zcl/wallets/ has your wallet files - ** back up this folder **
~/.electrum-zcl/config has your Electrum connection object.
