EOS Build Guide on Ubuntu (Updated)
Update: Added GMP installation
This is a brief guide of building EOS on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Google Compute Engine). I haven't tested on other versions yet. If you verify this instruction works in other versions, please comment. Reporting missing parts and wrong commands is really appreciated too.
우분투 16.04 LTS 버전에서 EOS를 빌드하는 법을 정리해봤습니다. 구글 컴퓨트 엔진 기반으로 테스트했는데, 혹시 다른 버전에서도 동작하는 것을 확인하시면 댓글로 남겨주시면 감사하겠습니다.

Note: Example contracts are located in ~/eos/contracts
, for instance,
eosc setcode currency ./eos/contracts/currency/currency.wast ./eos/contracts/currency/currency.abi
You can see my yesterday's post about executing example contracts Here
not sure quite what happened in my case, but I tried copy/pasting that first part into root bash shell and it literally wiped out most of my /etc directory, including passwd files, /apt dir, etc - I think some of this was designed more specifically for the docker build (via the Dockerfile template), which is how I've been trying to rebuild EOS after recreating the VM. So far that's been working well. Probably safer though to execute one line at a time, and make sure each one does what it's supposed to...

hello @clayop,
I am building it on amazon linux machine. I can run easily upto below command
DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive yum install -y sudo wget net-tools ca-certificates unzip
(and note I have to use yum)
but next command - echo "deb http://apt.llvm.org/xenial/ llvm-toolchain-xenial-4.0 main" >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/llvm.list
gives following error
-bash: /etc/apt/sources.list.d/llvm.list: No such file or directory
what to do?? yr help is much appreciated.
If Amazon/EC2 is still based on CentOS/Fedora, maybe you could try something like this:
$ echo 'HOME_DIR=/home/$(whoami)' >> .bashrc; source .bashrc ; curl -O http://releases.llvm.org/4.0.1/clang+llvm-4.0.1-x86_64-linux-gnu-Fedora-25.tar.xz; tar xvf clang+llvm-4.0.1-x86_64-linux-gnu-Fedora-25.tar.xz; echo 'export PATH=$HOME_DIR/clang+llvm-4.0.1-x86_64-linux-gnu-Fedora-25:$PATH' >> .bashrc; source .bashrc; cd ~
OR
$ echo 'HOME_DIR=/home/$(whoami)' >> .bashrc
$ source .bashrc
$ curl -O http://releases.llvm.org/4.0.1/clang+llvm-4.0.1-x86_64-linux-gnu-Fedora-25.tar.xz
$ tar xvf clang+llvm-4.0.1-x86_64-linux-gnu-Fedora-25.tar.xz
$ echo 'export PATH=$HOME_DIR/clang+llvm-4.0.1-x86_64-linux-gnu-Fedora-25:$PATH' >> .bashrc
$ source .bashrc
$ cd ~
Très bon article. Merci j'apprends des choses avec vous j'adore votre style d'écriture.
Cordialement
Merci!

So what all can you do with EOS in its current state?
i believe fuck all lol someone tell me im wrong
Just posted this article that talks about EOS as the 4th generation blockchain challenge for Steem.
Analysis of Steem's Economy - A Social Scientist's First Impressions - Part 3/4 in the series.

All of this makes no sense to me but i am no expert.. however since i passed here i found this kinda interating
Which is why i am going to try to understand it 🤔
that's a nice post, you have discussed things in details
Hope I can test it oneday, but now it seems complicated to me!
I may have to spin up a Linux box to play with this!!!
You should! It's really lot of fun!
love me linux box :)
Really need a way to save posts, as this comment is purely so I can find it later
Haha manual bookmark... cool :)
