## Source code git clone https://github.com/tecnovert/basicswap.git ## Run Using Docker Install dependencies: apt-get install curl jq git Docker must be installed and started: docker -v Should return a line containing `Docker version`... To install docker engine on your platform see: https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/#server It's recommended to setup docker to work without sudo.
Without this step you will need to preface each `docker-compose` command with `sudo`: https://docs.docker.com/engine/install/linux-postinstall/ #### Copy the default environment file: cd basicswap/docker cp example.env .env #### (Optional) Set custom coin data path: Coin-related files, such as blockchain and wallet files, are stored in `/var/data/coinswaps` by default. To use a different location, simply modify the target path in your `.env` file found within the `/docker` sub-folder. cd basicswap/docker nano .env #### Create the images: cd basicswap/docker docker-compose build Depending on your environment, the `docker-compose` command may not work. If that's the case, type `docker compose` instead, without the dash. #### Prepare the datadir: Set xmrrestoreheight to the current xmr chain height. CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT=$(curl https://localmonero.co/blocks/api/get_stats | jq .height) Adjust `--withcoins` and `--withoutcoins` as desired, eg: `--withcoins=monero,bitcoin`. By default only Particl is loaded. ##### FastSync Append `--usebtcfastsync` to the below command to optionally initialise the Bitcoin datadir with a chain snapshot from btcpayserver FastSync.
[FastSync README.md](https://github.com/btcpayserver/btcpayserver-docker/blob/master/contrib/FastSync/README.md) Setup with a local Monero daemon (recommended): docker run --rm -t --name swap_prepare -v $COINDATA_PATH:/coindata i_swapclient basicswap-prepare --datadir=/coindata --withcoins=monero --htmlhost="0.0.0.0" --wshost="0.0.0.0" --xmrrestoreheight=$CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT To instead use Monero public nodes and not run a local Monero daemon
(it can be difficult to find reliable public nodes): Set XMR_RPC_HOST and BASE_XMR_RPC_PORT to a public XMR node. docker run --rm -e XMR_RPC_HOST="node.xmr.to" -e BASE_XMR_RPC_PORT=18081 -t --name swap_prepare -v $COINDATA_PATH:/coindata i_swapclient basicswap-prepare --datadir=/coindata --withcoins=monero --htmlhost="0.0.0.0" --wshost="0.0.0.0" --xmrrestoreheight=$CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT **Record the mnemonic from the output of the above command.** **Mnemonics should be stored encrypted and/or air-gapped.** And the output of `echo $CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT` for use if you need to later restore your wallet. #### Set the timezone (optional): Edit the `.env` file in the docker directory, set TZ to your local timezone. Valid options can be listed with: `timedatectl list-timezones` #### Start the container: docker-compose up Open in browser: `http://localhost:12700` ### Add a coin docker-compose stop docker run --rm -t --name swap_prepare -v $COINDATA_PATH:/coindata i_swapclient basicswap-prepare --datadir=/coindata --addcoin=bitcoin --usebtcfastsync You can copy an existing pruned datadir (excluding bitcoin.conf and any wallets) over to `$COINDATA_PATH/bitcoin` Remove any existing wallets after copying over a pruned chain or the Bitcoin daemon won't start. With Encryption docker run -e WALLET_ENCRYPTION_PWD=passwordhere --rm -t --name swap_prepare -v $COINDATA_PATH:/coindata i_swapclient basicswap-prepare --datadir=/coindata --addcoin=bitcoin --usebtcfastsync ## Windows #### Setup WSL 2 and Docker Desktop [docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/wsl](https://docs.docker.com/docker-for-windows/wsl/) Open a wsl terminal Windows key + R -> "wsl" -> Enter Install Git: sudo apt update sudo apt install git Download the BasicSwap code: git clone https://github.com/tecnovert/basicswap.git cd basicswap/docker/ It's significantly faster to set COINDATA_PATH in the linux filesystem. You can access it from the windows side at: `\\wsl$\Ubuntu` Continue from the [Run Using Docker](#run-using-docker) section. ## Run Without Docker: ### Ubuntu Setup: apt-get install -y wget git python3-venv python3-pip gnupg unzip protobuf-compiler automake libtool pkg-config curl jq ### OSX Setup: Install Homebrew (See https://brew.sh/): /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" Dependencies: brew install wget unzip python git protobuf gnupg automake libtool pkg-config curl jq Close the terminal and open a new one to update the python symlinks. ### Basicswap: export SWAP_DATADIR=/Users/$USER/coinswaps mkdir -p "$SWAP_DATADIR/venv" python3 -m venv "$SWAP_DATADIR/venv" . $SWAP_DATADIR/venv/bin/activate && python -V cd $SWAP_DATADIR wget -O coincurve-anonswap.zip https://github.com/tecnovert/coincurve/archive/refs/tags/anonswap_v0.2.zip unzip -d coincurve-anonswap coincurve-anonswap.zip mv ./coincurve-anonswap/*/{.,}* ./coincurve-anonswap || true cd $SWAP_DATADIR/coincurve-anonswap pip3 install . cd $SWAP_DATADIR git clone https://github.com/tecnovert/basicswap.git cd $SWAP_DATADIR/basicswap If installed on OSX, you may need to install additional root ssl certificates for the ssl module. From https://pypi.org/project/certifi/ sudo python3 bin/install_certifi.py Continue installing Basicswap protoc -I=basicswap --python_out=basicswap basicswap/messages.proto pip3 install . Prepare the datadir: CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT=$(curl https://localmonero.co/blocks/api/get_stats | jq .height) basicswap-prepare --datadir=$SWAP_DATADIR --withcoins=monero --xmrrestoreheight=$CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT OR using a remote/public XMR daemon (not recommended): XMR_RPC_HOST="node.xmr.to" BASE_XMR_RPC_PORT=18081 basicswap-prepare --datadir=$SWAP_DATADIR --withcoins=monero --xmrrestoreheight=$CURRENT_XMR_HEIGHT Record the mnemonic from the output of the above command. Start Basicswap: basicswap-run --datadir=$SWAP_DATADIR Open in browser: `http://localhost:12700` It may take a few minutes to start as the coin daemons are started before the http interface. Add a coin (Stop basicswap first): export SWAP_DATADIR=/Users/$USER/coinswaps basicswap-prepare --usebtcfastsync --datadir=/$SWAP_DATADIR --addcoin=bitcoin Start after installed: export SWAP_DATADIR=/Users/$USER/coinswaps . $SWAP_DATADIR/venv/bin/activate && python -V basicswap-run --datadir=$SWAP_DATADIR
