|
||||||
## Installing from PPA |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```shell |
|
||||||
sudo apt-get install software-properties-common |
|
||||||
sudo add-apt-repository -y ppa:ethereum/ethereum |
|
||||||
sudo apt-get update |
|
||||||
sudo apt-get install ethereum |
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
If you want to stay on the bleeding edge, install the `ethereum-unstable` package instead. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
After installing, run `geth account new` to create an account on your node. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You should now be able to run `geth` and connect to the network. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Make sure to check the different options and commands with `geth --help` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can alternatively install only the `geth` CLI with `apt-get install geth` if you don't want to install the other utilities (`bootnode`, `evm`, `disasm`, `rlpdump`, `ethtest`). |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Building from source |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
### Building Geth (command line client) |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Clone the repository to a directory of your choosing: |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```shell |
|
||||||
git clone https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum |
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
Install latest distribution of Go (v1.12.1) if you don't have it already: |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
[See instructions](Installing-Go#ubuntu-1404) |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Building `geth` requires Go and C compilers to be installed: |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```shell |
|
||||||
sudo apt-get install -y build-essential golang |
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Finally, build the `geth` program using the following command. |
|
||||||
```shell |
|
||||||
cd go-ethereum |
|
||||||
make geth |
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
You can now run `build/bin/geth` to start your node. |

# Binaries |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Download stable binaries |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
All versions of Geth are built and available for download at https://geth.ethereum.org/downloads/. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The download page provides an installer as well as a zip file. The installer puts geth into your |
|
||||||
PATH automatically. The zip file contains the command .exe files and can be used without installing. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
1. Download zip file |
|
||||||
1. Extract geth.exe from zip |
|
||||||
1. Open a command prompt |
|
||||||
1. chdir <path to geth.exe> |
|
||||||
1. open geth.exe |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
# Source |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
## Compiling geth with tools from chocolatey |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
The Chocolatey package manager provides an easy way to get |
|
||||||
the required build tools installed. If you don't have chocolatey yet, |
|
||||||
follow the instructions on https://chocolatey.org to install it first. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Then open an Administrator command prompt and install the build tools |
|
||||||
we need: |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```text |
|
||||||
C:\Windows\system32> choco install git |
|
||||||
C:\Windows\system32> choco install golang |
|
||||||
C:\Windows\system32> choco install mingw |
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Installing these packages will set up the `Path` environment variable. |
|
||||||
Open a new command prompt to get the new `Path`. The following steps don't |
|
||||||
need Administrator privileges. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Please ensure that the installed Go version is 1.7 (or any later version). |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
First we'll create and set up a Go workspace directory layout, |
|
||||||
then clone the source. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
***OBS*** If, during the commands below, you get the following message: |
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
WARNING: The data being saved is truncated to 1024 characters. |
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
Then that means that the `setx` command will fail, and proceeding will truncate the `Path`/`GOPATH`. If this happens, it's better to abort, and try to make some more room in `Path` before trying again. |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```text |
|
||||||
C:\Users\xxx> set "GOPATH=%USERPROFILE%" |
|
||||||
C:\Users\xxx> set "Path=%USERPROFILE%\bin;%Path%" |
|
||||||
C:\Users\xxx> setx GOPATH "%GOPATH%" |
|
||||||
C:\Users\xxx> setx Path "%Path%" |
|
||||||
C:\Users\xxx> mkdir src\github.com\ethereum |
|
||||||
C:\Users\xxx> git clone https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum src\github.com\ethereum\go-ethereum |
|
||||||
C:\Users\xxx> cd src\github.com\ethereum\go-ethereum |
|
||||||
C:\Users\xxx> go get -u -v golang.org/x/net/context |
|
||||||
``` |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
Finally, the command to compile geth is: |
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
```text |
|
||||||
C:\Users\xxx\src\github.com\ethereum\go-ethereum> go install -v ./cmd/... |
|
||||||
``` |
