A script to automate the installation of electrumx 🤖

Installing electrumx isn't really straight-forward (yet). You have to install the latest version of Python and various dependencies for one of the database engines. Then you have to integrate electrumx into your init system.

electrumx-installer simplifies this process to running a single command. All that's left to do for you is to customise the configuration and to start electrumx.

This installs electrumx using the default options:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/malikankit/electrumx-installer/master/bootstrap.sh -O - | bash

You can also set some options if you want more control:

For example:

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/malikankit/electrumx-installer/master/bootstrap.sh -O - | bash -s - -d /media/ssd/electrum-db

For example: to update existing installation with 'abelian' branch

  wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/malikankit/electrumx-installer/master/bootstrap.sh -O - | bash -s - -d /media/data/electrum-abelian-db --update --abelian

Optional : Might need to rm -rf ~/.electrumx-installer/ if it already exists
