Installing the Dependencies

For Ubuntu 14.04:

sudo apt-get install build-essential autoconf libboost-all-dev libssl-dev libprotobuf-dev\
 	         protobuf-compiler libtool autoconf automake \
 	         autotools-dev m4 libdb++-dev pkg-config bsdmainutils git

For Fedora 21 or later:

sudo yum groupinstall "Development Tools"
sudo yum install m4 openssl-devel db4-devel libdb-cxx-devel boost-devel protobuf-devel git

Build the Gcoin

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/OpenNetworking/gcoin-community.git
cd ~/gcoin-community
./autogen.sh --without-gui --without-miniupnpc
./configure
make 

Since Gcoin is still in test. There would be more convenient to turn off the GUI/minupnpc. We'll fix it in the future.

Running

Place a configure file in ~/.gcoin/gcoin.conf with the following contents (you don't need to modify anything)

addnode=140.112.29.201:12321
addnode=54.254.159.145
rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password

Now, run the demand!

./src/gcoind -daemon

It would automatically synchronize the Gcoin test net blockchain. You should be able to use the RPC after runs the daemon. Here's a quick way to test:

./src/gcoin-cli getinfo 

Get your own addresses.

First refill the keypool.

./src/gcoin-cli keypoolrefill 100

It would refill your keypool with 100 new keys derived from your key seed.

Then get the address.

./src/gcoin-cli getnewaddress

It would return a new address until your key pool is empty.

There is a fixed key in each wallet,

./src/gcoin-cli getfixedaddress 

It would return the fixed key, which is using for authentication.
