<h1>About Tahoe</h1>
|
|
<p>Welcome to <a href="http://allmydata.org">the Tahoe project</a>, a secure, decentralized, fault-tolerant filesystem.</p>
|
|
<p>See <a href="about.html">the about page</a> for more information.

<h1>How To Install Tahoe</h1>
|
|
|
|
<p>This procedure has been verified to work on Windows, Cygwin, Mac, Linux, Solaris, and FreeBSD. It's likely to work on other platforms. If you have trouble with this install process, please write to <a href="http://allmydata.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tahoe-dev">the tahoe-dev mailing list</a>, where friendly hackers will help you out.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Install Python</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Follow the instructions on <a href="http://python.org/download/releases/2.5.2">the Python v2.5.2 download page</a> to download and install Python v2.5.2.
|
|
|
|
<h2>Get Tahoe</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Download a recent zip file from here:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre><a
|
|
href="http://allmydata.org/source/tahoe/releases">http://allmydata.org/source/tahoe/releases</a></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>The larger <tt>-SUMO</tt> tarballs include all the
|
|
automatically-installable dependencies; use the smaller regular tarball
|
|
if you don't mind the build process downloading the things it needs, or
|
|
if you've downloaded and unpacked the <tt><a
|
|
href="http://allmydata.org/source/tahoe/deps/tahoe-deps.tar.gz">http://allmydata.org/source/tahoe/deps/tahoe-deps.tar.gz</a></tt>
|
|
bundle.</p>
|
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>Build Tahoe</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Unpack the zip file and cd into the top-level directory.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Run <cite>python setup.py build_tahoe</cite> to build and to install the <cite>tahoe</cite> executable into a subdirectory of the current directory named <cite>bin</cite>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Run <cite>python trial</cite> to verify that it built correctly and passes all tests.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Run <cite>bin/tahoe --version</cite> to verify that the executable tool runs and prints out the right version number (the "allmydata" version number is the version number of the Tahoe package).</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2>Run</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>Now you have the Tahoe source code installed and are ready to use it to form a decentralized filesystem. The <cite>tahoe</cite> executable in the <cite>bin</cite> directory can configure and launch your Tahoe node. See <a href="running.html">running.html</a> for instructions on how to do that.</p>
