Download and run prebuilt binaries for x86_64 and arm64 Linux architectures.

Replace VERSION with the latest release number (e.g., 0.3.0-alpha.1) and ARCHITECTURE with either x86_64 or arm64 in the commands below.

Example: blockd-0.3.0-alpha.1-x86_64-linux.tar.gz

Visit blockd releases page to download the latest release.

  • Under Packages, download blockd-VERSION-ARCHITECTURE-linux.tar.gz
  • Under Other, download blockd-VERSION-shasums.txt
  • Under Other, download blockd-VERSION-shasums.txt.asc

Confirm the integrity and authenticity of the download and extract:

  1. Verify signature:

    Terminal window
    gpg --verify blockd-VERSION-shasums.txt.asc
  2. Verify checksum:

    Terminal window
    sha256sum -c --ignore-missing blockd-VERSION-shasums.txt
  3. Extract archive:

    Terminal window
    tar xvf blockd-VERSION-ARCHITECTURE-linux-tar.gz

Navigate to the binary directory, create default directories and copy a configuration template:

Terminal window
cd blockd-VERSION-ARCHITECTURE-linux
cp conf/blockd.example_simple.yml conf/blockd.yml # or conf/blockd.example_tls.yml

Edit conf/blockd.yml and change values for your environment. See Configuration for details.
