bitcoin比特币节点安装
preface
The first step of quantitative transactions is to obtain data, so the most direct way to obtain bitcoin data is to build a bitcoin client, directly from the bitcoin public chain above the synchronous ledger to obtain data. The foundation of the Bitcoin network is based on centrless nodes and transparency, so that each node can get the full amount of data in the Bitcoin network.
So, let’s start by building a Bitcoin client node.
directory
The
bitcoin installation process starts the node of bitcoin
Bitcoin installation process
The procedure for installing the Bitcoin client from the source code is divided into the following seven steps:
-
download the library from github switch to the latest version of the installation system dependent library run autogen.sh script run configure script run make and make install verify that bitcoin has been installed successfully </ol b> Now, let’s do it step by step. The Linux system environment used in this article is Linux Ubuntu 16.04 LTS 64bit.
-
1.1 Download the codlibrary from Bitcoin’s official Github.
-
The process of installing Git is not much more than a simple command apt Install Git.
> git clone https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin.git
> cd bitcoin
1.2 Find the latest TAG version as V0.16.0.
> git tag
noversion
v0.1.5
...
v0.16.0
v0.16.0rc1
v0.16.0rc2
v0.16.0rc3
v0.16.0rc4
v0.2.0
...
v0.9.3
v0.9.3rc1
v0.9.3rc2
v0.9.4
v0.9.5
v0.9.5rc1
v0.9.5rc2
Switch to the latest version of the branch.
> git checkout v0.16.0
1.3 Install the system tools that need to be depended on, here will use Libtool, pkg-config, libboost, libDB toolkit, need to install in advance.
> apt install libtool
> apt install pkg-config
> apt install libboost-all-dev
> apt install libdb5.3++-dev
> apt install libevent-dev
1.4 Compile with the./ Autogen.sh script,
> ./autogen.sh
1.5 Run the configure script
When you’re done, you find that the current target has generated a configure file, and then run the configure file. At run time, a BerkerlyDB error occurs specifying that a version 4.8 BerkerlyDB is required. There are two solutions. The first solution is to download the corresponding version of BerkerlyDB. Second, skip this step. Let’s start with the second approach and skip the BerkeleyDB compatibility check.
> ./configure
configure: error: Found Berkeley DB other than 4.8, required for portable wallets (--with-incompatible-bdb to ignore or --disable-wallet to disable wallet functionality)
> ./configure --with-incompatible-bdb
1.6 Perform make and make install.
> make
> make install
1.7 Verify that bitcoin has been installed successfully
Verify that the bitcoin installation is successful. There are two commands bitcoind and BitcoI. We need to check if this boot command is installed in the system environment.
Bitcoind, the node used to start Bitcoin, synchronizes ledger data. Bitcoin-cli, used to communicate with bitcoind nodes.
View the system installation location of the boot command.
> which bitcoin-cli
/usr/local/bin/bitcoin-cli
> which bitcoind
/usr/local/bin/bitcoind
View the help information for bitcoind and Bitcoin-CLi commands, respectively.
> bitcoind -help
> bitcoin-cli -help
That completes the installation of the client of Bitcoin.
2. Start the Bitcoin node
Start bitcoin’s core client program with the bitcoind command. Before running it, I’ll define a bitcoin.conf configuration file to set up the user accessing RPC-JSON.
New configuration file.bitcoin/ Cobit.conf. Set the RPC user’s account and password. Please set it according to the requirements of complex password setting. The configuration item for the official recommended Bitcoin.conf file, open the file.
> vi .bitcoin/bitcoin.conf
rpcuser=bsspirit
rpcpassword=98jfidayelqlvjieJDIjda
Start the BitcoIND server and write the data to /data/ BTC directory to print out the output in the console.
> bitcoind -datadir=/data/btc -conf=/root/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf -printtoconsole

-Datadir, which specifies the directory -conf, and -printtoconsole, which specifies the configuration file for console output
If you want to do background execution, you can add the -daemon parameter. At the same time, remove the -printtoConsole parameter and print it out in a later log file.

When you see this information, it means that your Bitcoin application has started. There are dozens of gigabytes of data, need to be synchronized!
Bitcoin is a bit more complicated to install than APT, but according to the official documentation it should work properly and the installation process should not be a major problem for technicians. Different common chains, different node software, different installation methods, the next article will cover the ethereum client Geth installation.
