Install Tendermint
==================
From Binary
-----------
To download pre-built binaries, see the `releases page <https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/releases>`__.
From Source
-----------
You'll need ``go`` `installed <https://golang.org/doc/install>`__ and the required
`environment variables set <https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint/wiki/Setting-GOPATH>`__
Get Source Code
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
::
mkdir -p $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint
git clone https://github.com/tendermint/tendermint.git
cd tendermint
Get Tools & Dependencies
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
::
make get_tools
make get_vendor_deps
Compile
^^^^^^^
::
make install
to put the binary in ``$GOPATH/bin`` or use:
::
make build
to put the binary in ``./build``.
The latest ``tendermint version`` is now installed.
Reinstall
---------
If you already have Tendermint installed, and you make updates, simply
::
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint
make install
To upgrade, there are a few options:
- set a new ``$GOPATH`` and run
``go get github.com/tendermint/tendermint/cmd/tendermint``. This
makes a fresh copy of everything for the new version.
- run ``go get -u github.com/tendermint/tendermint/cmd/tendermint``,
where the ``-u`` fetches the latest updates for the repository and
its dependencies
- fetch and checkout the latest master branch in
``$GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint``, and then run
``make get_vendor_deps && make install`` as above.
Note the first two options should usually work, but may fail. If they
do, use ``dep``, as above:
::
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/tendermint/tendermint
make get_vendor_deps
make install
Since the third option just uses ``dep`` right away, it should always
work.
Run
^^^
To start a one-node blockchain with a simple in-process application:
::
tendermint init
tendermint node --proxy_app=kvstore
