Wallet Installation Guide

... coming soon!

Manual Wallet Setup (development)

  1. Clone and build VERGE on your own by following the following guide: VERGE Building Guide

  2. On finish building the VERGEd, you should be able to run the wallet by entering the following command inside the root of the cloned verge repository: ./src/VERGEd -rpcuser=kyon -rpcpassword=lolcat -printtoconsole -deamon, this will start the verge deamon with the given userdata, which you now have to change inside the dev-config.json.example.

So ultimately:

~/work/VERGE » ./src/VERGEd -rpcuser=myusername -rpcpassword=mypassword -printtoconsole -deamon
~/work/vWallet » mv dev-config.json.example dev-config.json && vim dev-config.json
  1. Install NodeJS by following the NodeJS Guide, make sure to pick the LTS Version!

alternatively you can also try to use NVM, if you needed multiple versions of node on your development machine.

  1. After finishing the NodeJS installation, make sure that everything is installed. Execute the following commands:
➜  ~ node -v
v8.11.0
➜  ~ npm -v
5.6.0

You should have similar outputs at this point. If not make sure everything is setup correctly and your path is also correct. the easiest way on mac is using NVM (Node version manager)

  1. Afterwards you can install yarn by using npm: npm i -g yarn. This will install yarn globally by using npm.

  2. After installing the requirements, you can now clone the repository by executing this command in your preferred folder work folder: git clone https://github.com/vergecurrency/vWallet.git

  3. Afterwards you enter the directory: cd vWallet

  4. To install further dependencies and starting the wallet afterwards, you have to enter the following command: yarn && yarn dev

This will install the dependencies first and will then start the wallet as local developement server. It also comes with hot module reload.
