Source tarballs

✗ This script does not produce reproducible output (yet!).

This assumes an Ubuntu (x86_64) host, but it should not be too hard to adapt to another similar system. The docker commands should be executed in the project's root folder.

1. Install Docker

   $ curl -fsSL https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu/gpg | sudo apt-key add -
   $ sudo add-apt-repository "deb [arch=amd64] https://download.docker.com/linux/ubuntu $(lsb_release -cs) stable"
   $ sudo apt-get update
   $ sudo apt-get install -y docker-ce
   

2. Build image

   $ sudo docker build -t electrum-sdist-builder-img contrib/build-linux/sdist
   

3. Build source tarballs

   It's recommended to build from a fresh clone (but you can skip this if reproducibility is not necessary).

   $ FRESH_CLONE=contrib/build-linux/sdist/fresh_clone && \
       sudo rm -rf $FRESH_CLONE && \
       mkdir -p $FRESH_CLONE && \
       cd $FRESH_CLONE  && \
       git clone https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum.git && \
       cd electrum
   

   And then build from this directory:

   $ git checkout $REV
   $ sudo docker run -it \
       --name electrum-sdist-builder-cont \
       -v $PWD:/opt/electrum \
       --rm \
       --workdir /opt/electrum/contrib/build-linux/sdist \
       electrum-sdist-builder-img \
       ./build.sh
   

4. The generated distributables are in ./dist.
