→Setting up the Ravencoin node - The quick way
#Instead of the repository of the Core Ravencoin developers, [https://github.com/underdarkskies Under] who is also an active developer, compiled static versions of the Ravencoin wallet/node. Static means that this version works straight out of the box for each operating system. For the Raspberry Pi, you need the [https://github.com/underdarkskies/Ravencoin/releases ARM-linux version of Ravencoin]. Open a terminal and use the following code:
#:<pre>
#::cd ~/ wget https://github.com/underdarkskies/Ravencoin/releases/download/v2.1.12/raven-2.1.12-arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.gz tar -xvzf raven-2.1.1-arm-linux-gnueabihf.tar.gz </pre> '''Note:''' Under and I just saved you hours of headaches and 2 hours of compiling!
# There is no working Ravencoin GUI for the Raspberry Pi. So you will need to get everything working from the command line. I like to put binaries into my default local user binary location so that I can globally access them from anywhere.
#:<pre>
#::cd raven-2.1.12/bin sudo cp ./* /usr/local/bin </pre> Two files in this directory are important:
#*''ravend'': which is the Ravencoin deamon, a program that implements the Ravencoin protocol for remote procedure calls (RPCs). In simple terms: it will run a wallet/node as a background process and you can send instructions to it.
#*''raven-cli'': which is the command line interface for Ravencoin that you can use to send instructions to ravend.
