Electrum - Lightweight FairCoin client

Licence: MIT Licence
Author: Thomas König
Original Author: Thomas Voegtlin
Language: Python (>= 3.6)
Homepage: https://download.faircoin.world/

Getting started

Electrum is a pure python application. If you want to use the Qt interface, install the Qt dependencies:

sudo apt-get install python3-pyqt5

If you downloaded the official package (tar.gz), you can run Electrum 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_electrumfair

You can also install Electrum on your system, by running this command:

sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools
python3 -m pip install .[fast]

This will download and install the Python dependencies used by Electrum instead of using the 'packages' directory. The 'fast' extra contains some optional dependencies that we think are often useful but they are not strictly needed.

If you cloned the git repository, you need to compile extra files before you can run Electrum. Read the next section, "Development Version".

Development version

Check out the code from GitHub:

git clone git://github.com/faircoin/electrumfair.git
cd electrumfair

Run install (this should install dependencies):

python3 -m pip install .[fast]

Compile the protobuf description file:

sudo apt-get install protobuf-compiler
protoc --proto_path=electrumfair --python_out=electrumfair electrumfair/paymentrequest.proto

Install on Linux systems

If you install Electrum on your system, you can run it from any directory.

If you have pip, you can do:

python3 setup.py sdist
sudo pip3 install --pre dist/ElectrumFair-3.3.4.tar.gz

If you don't have pip, install with:

python3 setup.py sdist
sudo python3 setup.py install
