Wantguns-bin is an open-source tool available on GitHub which allows users to interact with the Wantguns blockchain network. In this tutorial, we will explain the steps needed to install Wantguns-bin on an Ubuntu Server Latest.
Before proceeding with the installation, please ensure that your Ubuntu Server Latest is updated to the latest version. Also, ensure that you have root access to your server.
To start, we need to ensure that Git is installed on our system. To install Git on Ubuntu Server, run the following command:
sudo apt-get install git
Next, we need to clone the Wantguns-bin repository to our server. To do so, navigate to the directory where you would like to install the repository and run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/wantguns/bin.git
This will create a new directory called "bin" containing the Wantguns-bin files.
Before we can build and run Wantguns-bin, we need to install its dependencies. Navigate to the "bin" directory by running the following command:
cd bin
Next, run the following command to install the dependencies:
sudo apt-get install build-essential automake libtool pkg-config libssl-dev libevent-dev bsdmainutils
Once all the dependencies are installed, we can build Wantguns-bin. To do so, navigate to the "src" directory by running the following command:
cd src
Next, run the following commands to configure and build Wantguns-bin:
./autogen.sh
./configure
make
This will build the Wantguns-bin binary.
Finally, we can run Wantguns-bin by executing the following command:
./wantgunsd -daemon
This will start the Wantguns-bin daemon in the background.
In this tutorial, we have explained how to install Wantguns-bin on an Ubuntu Server Latest. By following the steps correctly, you should now be able to interact with the Wantguns blockchain network using Wantguns-bin.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
