Mac OS X High Sierra Build Instructions and Notes
The commands in this guide should be executed in a Terminal application. The built-in one is located in /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app.
Install the OS X command line tools:
xcode-select --install
When the popup appears, click Install.
Then install Homebrew from https://brew.sh
brew install openssl berkeley-db4 miniupnpc libqt5webkit5-dev sudo
brew link --force berkeley-db4
brew upgrade openssl
brew install [email protected] --c++11
brew link [email protected] --force
Clone the litedoge source code and cd into litedoge
git clone https://github.com/vashshawn/LDOGE && cd LDOGE
Configure and build the headless litedoge binaries to verify that everything is working
cd src/
make -f makefile.osx-homebrew
LiteDoge Core is now available at ./src/litedoged
Before running, it's recommended you create an RPC configuration file.
echo -e "rpcuser=litedogerpc\nrpcpassword=$(xxd -l 16 -p /dev/urandom)" > "/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/LiteDoge/litedoge.conf"
chmod 600 "/Users/${USER}/Library/Application Support/LiteDoge/litedoge.conf"
The first time you run litedoged, it will start downloading the blockchain. This process may take several days.
You can monitor the download process by looking at the debug.log file:
tail -f $HOME/Library/Application\ Support/LiteDoge/debug.log
Other commands:
./src/litedoged -daemon # Starts the bitcoin daemon.
./src/litedoged --help # Outputs a list of command-line options.
./src/litedoged help # Outputs a list of RPC commands when the daemon is running.
