Installation Instructions

Picking a version to run

Branches are organized in the following way:

branch name description quality bar
master development branch all unit tests passing
testnet version deployed to testnet acceptance tests passing
prod version currently deployed on the live network no recall class issue found in testnet and staging

For convenience, we also keep a record in the form of release tags of the versions that make it to production:

  • pre-releases are versions that get deployed to testnet
  • releases are versions that made it all the way in prod

When running a node, the best bet is to go with the latest release.

Build Dependencies

  • clang >= 3.5 or g++ >= 4.9
  • pkg-config
  • bison and flex
  • libpq-devel unless you ./configure --disable-postgres in the build step below.

Ubuntu 14.04

# sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-toolchain-r/test
# apt-get update
# sudo apt-get install git build-essential pkg-config autoconf automake libtool bison flex libpq-dev clang++-3.5 gcc-4.9 g++-4.9 cpp-4.9

See installing gcc 4.9 on ubuntu 14.04

  • git clone https://github.com/stellar/stellar-core.git
  • cd stellar-core
  • git submodule init
