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::
# Setup Homebrew
sh ./setup-mac.sh
# Install Homebrew dependencies
brew bundle
# Install Python dependencies
pip3 install -r requirements.txt
# Build icons
pyrcc5 icons.qrc -o gui/qt/icons_rc.py
# Compile the protobuf description file
protoc --proto_path=lib/ --python_out=lib/ lib/paymentrequest.proto
# 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 $(grep -vE "^\s*#" packages.txt | tr "\n" " ")
pip install -r requirement.txt
Compile the icons file for Qt::
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::
protoc --proto_path=lib/ --python_out=lib/ lib/paymentrequest.proto
Create translations (optional)::
./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.
