Installation
To install the chia-blockchain node, follow the instructions according to your operating system. After installing, follow the remaining instructions in README.md to run the software.
MacOS
Currently Catalina (10.15.x) is required. Make sure brew is available before starting the setup.
brew upgrade python
brew install npm gmp
git clone https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain.git
cd chia-blockchain
sh install.sh
. ./activate
Debian/Ubuntu
On Ubuntu 18.04, you need python 3.7. It's not available in the default repository, so you need to add an alternate source. You can skip this step if you install in Ubuntu 19.x or higher.
# for add-apt-repository
sudo apt install software-properties-common -y
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:deadsnakes/ppa -y
Install dependencies for Ubuntu 18.04 from above or Ubuntu 19.x or higher.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python3.7-venv python3.7-dev python3-pip git -y
git clone https://github.com/Chia-Network/chia-blockchain.git
cd chia-blockchain
sh install.sh
. ./activate
Windows (WSL)
Install WSL2 + Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
From an Administrator PowerShell
dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:Microsoft-Windows-Subsystem-Linux /all /norestart
and then
dism.exe /online /enable-feature /featurename:VirtualMachinePlatform /all /norestart.
This requires a reboot at this point. Once that is complete, install Ubuntu 18.04 LTS from the Microsoft Store and run it. Then follow the steps below.
sudo apt-get -y update
sudo apt-get -y upgrade
sudo apt-get install python3.7-venv python3-pip -y
python3.7 -m venv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install --upgrade pip
pip install -i https://hosted.chia.net/simple/ miniupnpc==0.1.dev5 setproctitle==1.1.10 cbor2==5.0.1
pip install chia-blockchain==1.0.beta2
You will need to download the Windows native Wallet and unzip into somewhere convenient in Windows.
Instead of chia-start-wallet-ui & as explained in the README.md you run chia-start-wallet-server & in Ubuntu/WSL 2 to allow the Wallet to connect to the Full Node running in Ubuntu/WSL 2. Once you've enabled chia-start-wallet-server & you can run chia.exe from the unzipped chia-win32-x64 directory.
