Build SpyCblock

At the moment the only method for build SpyCblock is with scripts contained inside the directory called installer or command line. I hope to implement the complete installer with CMake in the future.

PS: SpyCblock was developed for work on Linux OS (based Ubuntu/Debian), I think work on the OSX but I don’t think work on Windows (“I hope” only for the moment).

PS: unfortunately, the script does not have the capacity to aborted after error; so you pay attention to the console.

Scripts description

Inside the directory installer exist some script for different type system build, like:

• compile.sh: This script is for the first operation build, it will call the dependences.sh and update-submodule.sh; compile.sh create the new directory inside the root project called build;
• compile-without-dependence.sh: this script suppose that the dependencies are installed and it was created the build directory; when running the script you create the executable with the executable;
• compile-test.sh: this script supposes that the dependences are install corrected and it will create the test inside the directory test/build/. For run the test you have the need to the directory test structure, you can download it here or if you want to use the onionShare you can download it here;
• dependences.sh: You can use this script to install the dependence, if it doesn’t work see here to install dependence manually
• update-submodule.sh: you can use this script for initialized the git submodules.

Build from the script

If you compile for the first time SpyCblock you can run the command ./compile.sh, if the command runs without error, you can find the binary inside the build directory.

After this, you can jump to the configure section

If you want recompiling only the binary you can run the script ./compile-without-dependence.sh

Build SpyCblock tests for scripts

If you want to compile the SpyCblock test you can run the ./compile.sh and if it ran without error you can run also the command ./compile-test.sh; if the compile-test.sh run without error you have needed the structure of the directory for the test, you can find it here or on OnionShare

After this, you can jump to the configure section

Build from the command line

If the script doesn’t work and you can use the console for installing it (The script is tested only on Linux (based on Ubuntu/Debian))

Dependencies for the develop

• sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install build-essential -y
• sudo apt-get install zlib1g-dev -y
• sudo apt-get install libncurses-dev -y
• sudo apt install cmake -y
• run the script ./update-submodule.sh

External dependence

You can use the original guide to install the single project

• GLog
• RapidJSON
• libjson-rpc-cpp
• Bitcoin-api-cpp

If you want to compile the test, you can install the Gtest dependences

• Gtest

Compile SpyCblock

• make build && cd build
• cmake ...
• make
• cd .. && cp conf.properties build && cp conf-rpc.properties build && cd build
• ./SpyCBlock

Compile SpyCblockTest

• cd test && mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make
• ./SpyCBlockTest
