Building from Source

Quick Start Please use ./ci-scripts/build.sh to install all dependencies and compile stegos and stegosd executables: git clone https://github.com/stegos/stegos.git cd stegos ./ci-script/build.sh Produced executables will be available in the ./target/release subdirectory. Supported platforms: Ubuntu 18.04 “Bionic” Debian 10 “Booster” Fedora 30 / 31 Windows Server 2019 macOS 10.15 “Catalina” Android 5.0 “Lollipop” Other platforms may work as well, but not tested. See platform-specific notes below. Windows Notes On Windows please install MinGW toolchain first by running . »

WebSocket API

Stegos Node offers experimental asynchronous WebSocket API. This API allow you to manage accounts, create and track transactions, receive notifications and so on. For exchange integration, see the exchange api section.

Exchange Integration

In a private coin like Stegos, where each utxo has a cloaked public key, one usually needs a secret key to find whether a particular utxo belongs to a particular user. Exchange services usually handle a large number of users. For security reasons, they store secret keys in a secure place, often without access to the internet. Thus the standard Stegos approach is incompatible with standard exchange processes. To get around this problem, for exchanges we make use of Public outputs. »
