Celestial

A cryptocurrency that uses an improved proof of work algorithm to create a stable more user friendly coin. Celestial limits the amount of control a single body can hold and prevents ASIC and GPU mining.

Linux

Prerequisites

• You will need the following packages: boost (1.55 or higher), rocksdb, cmake, git, gcc (4.9 or higher), g++ (4.9 or higher), make, and python. Most of these should already be installed on your system.
• For example on Ubuntu: sudo apt-get install -y build-essential python-dev gcc g++ git cmake libboost-all-dev

Building

• git clone https://github.com/CelestialCash/Celestial
• cd Celestial
• mkdir build && cd $_
• cmake ..
• make

Apple

Prerequisites

• Install cmake. See here if you are unable call cmake from the terminal after installing.
• Install the boost libraries. Either compile boost manually or run brew install boost.
• Install XCode and Developer Tools.

Building

• git clone https://github.com/CelestialCash/Celestial
• cd Celestial
• mkdir build && cd $_
• cmake .. or cmake -DBOOST_ROOT=<path_to_boost_install> .. when building from a specific boost install. If you used brew to install boost, your path is most likely /usr/local/include/boost.
• make

The binaries will be in ./src after compilation is complete.

Run ./src/Celestiald to connect to the network and let it sync (it may take a while).

Windows 10

Prerequisites

• Install Visual Studio 2017 Community Edition
• When installing Visual Studio, it is required that you install Desktop development with C++ and the VC++ v140 toolchain when selecting features. The option to install the v140 toolchain can be found by expanding the "Desktop development with C++" node on the right. You will need this for the project to build correctly. This item will be called something like VC++ 2015.3 v14.00 (v140) toolset for desktop
• Install Boost 1.59.0, ensuring you download the installer for MSVC 14.

Building

• From the start menu, open 'x64 Native Tools Command Prompt for vs2017'.
• cd <your_Celestial_directory>
• mkdir build
• cd build
• Set the PATH variable for cmake: ie. set PATH="C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\Common7\IDE\CommonExtensions\Microsoft\CMake\CMake\bin";%PATH%
• cmake -G "Visual Studio 14 Win64" .. -DBOOST_ROOT=C:/local/boost_1_59_0 (Or your boost installed dir.)
• MSBuild Celestial.sln /p:Configuration=Release /m
• If all went well, it will complete successfully, and you will find all your binaries in the '..\build\src\Release' directory.
• Additionally, a .sln file will have been created in the build directory. If you wish to open the project in Visual Studio with this, you can.
