IOS (iPhoneOS) Build Instructions and Notes =========================================== This guide will show you how to build twisterd for IOS on a linux machine. Notes ----- * Compilation, made on a linux * Application, tested on iPhone4 with IOS 7.1.2 (jailbroken) * All of the commands should be executed in a Terminal application. Preparation ----------- You need to install clang and llvm from distribution's repo. Then you need IOS toolchain and SDK. You can get them from [iOS toolchain based on clang for linux](https://code.google.com/p/ios-toolchain-based-on-clang-for-linux/). You need to install [openssl](http://cydia.saurik.com/package/openssl/) ([view in cydia...](cydia://package/openssl)) to your device and copy headers and libraries to your SDK as well. REQUIRMENTS (leveldb, berkeley db and boost) WILL BE DOWNLOADED AND BUILDED BY `runme-ios-onlinux.sh` You need also to build [leveldb](http://github.com/google/leveldb), [Berkeley DB](http://download.oracle.com/otn/berkeley-db/db-5.3.28.tar.gz) for IOS. And you need the [boost sources](http://www.boost.org/users/download/#live). Instructions: ------------- #### Setting required variable You should check variables set in `runme-ios-onlinux.sh` script. export IOS_SDK=/usr/share/iPhoneOS6.0.sdk export ARCH=armv7 export TARGET=arm-apple-darwin11 export LINKER_VER=236.3 export IPHONEOS_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=6.0 export TARGET_OS=IOS export CC="clang" export CXX="clang++" export PJC=2 #### Building dependencies and `twisterd` 1. Clone the github tree to get the source code and go into the directory. git clone https://github.com/miguelfreitas/twister-core.git cd twister-core/src 2. Building ./runme-ios-onlinux.sh 3. If things go south, before trying again, make sure you clean it up: make clean If all went well, you should now have a twisterd executable in the twister-core directory. See the Running instructions below. Running ------- It's now available at `./twisterd`, provided that you are still in the `twister-core` directory. We have to first create the RPC configuration file, though. Run `./twisterd` to get the filename where it should be put, or just try these commands: mkdir -p "/User/.twister" echo -e "rpcuser=user\nrpcpassword=pwd\nrpcallowip=127.0.0.1" > "/User/.twister/twister.conf" chmod 600 "/User/.twister/twister.conf" When next you run it, it will start downloading the blockchain, but it won't output anything while it's doing this. This process may take several hours. If you see a lonely `connect: Operation timed out`, don't freak out, it seems to work fine. Other commands: tail -f ~/.twister/debug.log ./twisterd --help # for a list of command-line options. ./twisterd -daemon # to start it as a daemon. ./twisterd help # When the daemon is running, to get a list of RPC commands In order to get the HTML interface, you'll have to download it and link it in .twister: git clone https://github.com/miguelfreitas/twister-html.git /User/Library/Application\ Support/twister/html Once you do that, it will be available at http://localhost:28332/home.html
