LBRY Vault - Lightweight LBRY Credit client
Guides
Guide for Ledger devices - https://kodxana.github.io/LBRY-Vault-website/
Getting started
LBRY Vault itself is pure Python, and so are most of the required dependencies.
Non-python dependencies
If you want to use the Qt interface, install the Qt dependencies:
sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5
For elliptic curve operations, libsecp256k1 is a required dependency:
sudo apt-get install libsecp256k1-0
Alternatively, when running from a cloned repository, a script is provided to build libsecp256k1 yourself:
./contrib/make_libsecp256k1.sh
Running from tar.gz
If you downloaded the official package (tar.gz), you can run LBRY Vault from its root directory without installing it on your system; all the python dependencies are included in the 'packages' directory. To run Electrum from its root directory, just do:
./run_electrum
You can also install Electrum on your system, by running this command:
sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools python3-pip python3 -m pip install --user .
This will download and install the Python dependencies used by LBRY Vault instead of using the 'packages' directory.
If you cloned the git repository, you need to compile extra files before you can run LBRY Vault. Read the next section, "Development version".
Development version
Check out the code from GitHub:
git clone git://github.com/kodxana/LBRY-Vault.git cd electrum git submodule update --init
Run install (this should install dependencies):
python3 -m pip install --user .
Compile the protobuf description file:
sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler protoc --proto_path=electrum --python_out=electrum electrum/paymentrequest.proto
Create translations (optional):
sudo apt-get install python-requests gettext ./contrib/pull_locale
