The Urbit address space is now live on the Ethereum blockchain. We’re calling it ‘Azimuth’ and you can find it at
0x223c067f8cf28ae173ee5cafea60ca44c335fecborazimuth.eth. Owners of Azimuth ‘points’ (galaxies, stars or planets) can use Bridge to manage them and view their balance now. Sometime in the next few days, owners of Azimuth points will be able to boot Arvo, the Urbit OS, from their Azimuth point and request access to one of our ‘cities’: private communities for chat and discussion. These new cities use Landscape, a brand new UI for using Urbit in the browser.
Install instructions
To install and run Urbit please follow the instructions at urbit.org/docs/getting-started/. Packages and source tarballs are available there. You'll be on the live network in a few minutes.
If you're doing development on Urbit, keep reading.
Build instructions
External dependencies
vere, the Urbit virtual machine, depends on the following:
- C compiler (gcc or clang)
- Meson
- GMP
- OpenSSL
- libsigsegv
- libcurl
- libuv
- curses implementation (ncurses on Linux distributions, OS curses otherwise)
Most of these dependencies are unfortunate; we aim to drastically shrink the
list in upcoming versions. vere proper makes use of GMP, OpenSSL, libcurl, and
libsigsegv.
Building
Urbit uses Meson build system.
Some libraries which are not found in major distributions:
- ed25519
- libh2o
- murmur3
- softfloat3
- scrypt
are included as git submodules. To build urbit from source, perform the following steps:
Configuration & compilation
(For instructions for legacy meson, also see below)
- Install all required dependencies.
- Run
./scripts/bootstrap - Run
./scripts/build - The executable should appear in
./builddirectory.
Using meson & ninja
To configure the project, enter the build directory and enter
meson configure -Dbuildtype=release. To compile a debug build of urbit, use
meson configure -Dbuildtype=debug.
To set a prefix for installation use
meson configure -Dprefix=/usr.
Configuration & compilation for legacy meson
The syntax for legacy meson (Version 0.29) is a bit different.
- Manually create
builddirectory and invoke meson asmeson . ./build - If you want to set options, this is done in one step.
Use
meson -D [options] . ./buildto prepare customized build.
Once the project is configured, use ninja to build it.
To install it into the default prefix, use ninja install.
If you want to specify custom DESTDIR, use DESTDIR=... ninja install.
Contact
We are using our new UI, Landscape to run a few experimental cities. If you have an Azimuth point, please send us your planet name at support@urbit.org to request access.
