cardano-linux-pkg

This is a Makefile that should be able to build cardano and the daedalus wallet on any Linux system.

This code should as is as long as you have the required dependencies installed.

What the build script does.

• Builds the mafia and jenga Haskell build tools from source.
• Builds cardano-node and cardano-launcher from the Haskell source.
• Installs a local build of nodejs and npm that is known to work.
• Uses npm to grab required Node modules.
• Copies everything to a local install directory (results/) which can then be tarred up and (hopefully) moved to another machine where is can be installed and work correctly.

To do.

• Add a proper installer (appimage maybe?).
• Move per-wallet SSL certificate generation to ${CFGDIR}.

Building it.

Firstly you should perform due diligence on this code. If you run this in a VM you don't really need to trust the code or the author. If you are going to run it on any machine which crypto currencies or crypto keys (SSH, GPG etc), you should probably inspect the the Makefile and the sources to mafia and jenga to make sure this code doesn't steal all your secrets.

On most Linux system you will need to usual development tools plus the pre-requisites listed at the top of the Makefile. Once that is installed, and this repo cloned, building it (which takes a considerable amount of time) is just a matter of:

make
(cd results/ && build-certificates-unix.sh)
results/run-daedalus.sh

There are likely to be some errors printed to stdout, and I have raised an issue about that.
