These changes are a work-in-progress -- there are many incomplete and incorrect parts, but the install.html and running.html files are complete and should work (and they are delightfully concise!). I'm pushing this just to let people see incremental progress and to solicit feedback. "Testing out" the install.html and running.html files and submitting patches or bug reports would be quite welcome. More to come.

This is the default procedure to install from source. It has been
|
|
verified to work on Windows, Cygwin, Mac, Linux, and Solaris. It's
|
|
likely to work on other platforms. For more details and for
|
|
alternative installation procedures, please
|
|
see <a href="install-details.html">install-details.html</a>.
|
|
|
|
|
|
DEPENDENCIES:
|
|
|
|
Prior to installing Tahoe the following must be installed:
|
|
|
|
1. gcc including g++ (programming language)
|
|
|
|
If you are building for Windows or for Cygwin, the Cygwin version
|
|
of gcc will work.
|
|
|
|
2. GNU make (build tool)
|
|
|
|
3. <a href="http://python.org">Python</a> including development
|
|
headers i.e. "Python.h" (programming language)
|
|
|
|
4. zope.interface (programming language extension)
|
|
|
|
Note that Tahoe does <em>not</em> require the entire Zope package,
|
|
merely the much smaller zope.interface component.
|
|
|
|
5. <a href="http://twistedmatrix.com">Twisted</a> (network and
|
|
operating system integration library)
|
|
|
|
Installing Twisted from the Twisted "sumo" source tarball works on
|
|
all supported platforms.
|
|
|
|
6. <a href="http://openssl.org">OpenSSL</a>, including development
|
|
headers (cryptography library)
|
|
|
|
7. <a href="http://pyopenssl.sourceforge.net">PyOpenSSL</a> (secure
|
|
transport layer)
|
|
|
|
8. <a href="http://cryptopp.com">Crypto++</a>, including development
|
|
headers (cryptography library)
|
|
|
|
9. required only for Windows-native (not required for
|
|
Cygwin): <a href="http://sourceforge.net/projects/pywin32/">pywin32</a>
|
|
|
|
|
|
GET THE SOURCE CODE:
|
|
|
|
Tarballs of the source code are available at:
|
|
|
|
http://allmydata.org/source/tahoe/
|
|
|
|
|
|
INSTALL:
|
|
|
|
Unpack the tarball and cd into the top-level directory.
|
|
|
|
Run <pre>make check-deps</pre> which verifies that all of the
|
|
dependencies listed above are installed.
|
|
|
|
Run <pre>make</pre> to build Tahoe and some included libraries and
|
|
install the <pre>tahoe</pre> executable into a subdirectory of the
|
|
current directory named <pre>bin</pre>.
|
|
|
|
Run <pre>make test</pre> to verify that it built correctly and passes
|
|
all tests.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Now you have the Tahoe source code installed and are ready to use it
|
|
to form a decentralized
|
|
filesystem. See <a href="running.html">running.html</a> for
|
|
instructions.
