These steps will install the following dependencies:

  • go (1.14 or higher)
  • gcc (7.4.0 or higher)
  • git (version 2 or higher)
  • bzr (some go dependency needs this)
  • jq
  • pkg-config
  • rustup (proofs build)
  • llvm (proofs build)
  • clang (proofs build)

$ sudo dnf -y update
$ sudo dnf -y install gcc git bzr jq pkgconfig mesa-libOpenCL mesa-libOpenCL-devel opencl-headers ocl-icd ocl-icd-devel clang llvm
$ curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSf https://sh.rustup.rs | sh

Clone the Lotus repository

git clone https://github.com/filecoin-project/lotus.git

! If you are running an AMD platform or if your CPU supports SHA extensions you will want to build the Filecoin proofs natively

$ make clean && make all
$ sudo make install

Native Filecoin FFI building

env env RUSTFLAGS="-C target-cpu=native -g" FFI_BUILD_FROM_SOURCE=1 make clean deps all
sudo make install

After installing Lotus, you can run the lotus command directly from your CLI to see usage documentation. Next, you can join the Lotus TestNet.
