This guide will teach you how to run spacecoin.

Table of Contents

Please Note

It is assumed you have already built spacecoin from source.

The instructions use the program screen to keep the process running in the background.

Instructions

  1. Open a Terminal.

  2. Navigate to the spacecoin/src directory:

    cd spacecoin/src

  3. Start a new screen for spacecoin:

    screen -S spacecoin

  4. Start spacecoin:

    ./spacecoind

    Here you will see all of the output from spacecoind as it starts up and syncs.

  5. Use Ctrl + A + Ctrl + D to exit the screen.

    You can return to it at any point with screen -r spacecoin.

You can now use spacecoin-cli to interact with the daemon.
