"Unit-e is an open source project that aims to provide a lean way to make payments on the internet."
This repository is the user interface that works in combination with the
unit-e client.

# 0. install Xcode application from App Store.
# 1. switch developer directory to xcode one
$ sudo xcode-select --switch /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/
# 2. install node and yarn
$ brew install node
$ brew install yarngit clone https://github.com/dtr-org/unit-e-desktop
cd unit-e-desktop
yarn installFor development, we recommend using the regtest environment, which gives you
full control over the blockchain and allows running various test scenarios.
Assuming you have Unit-e Core installed on your machine, the steps to launch the wallet GUI in development mode are:
- Start the Unit-e daemon with
united -regtest. - In a terminal, run
ng serve --env=regtestto start the Angular dev server and keep it running - In another terminal, run
yarn run start:electron:dev --regtestto start the Electron application.- Note: this command will auto-refresh the client on each saved change
You may then interact with the wallet GUI, as well as with the united daemon
directly, using the unite-cli program.
Alternatively, if you want the daemon process to be managed by the wallet GUI, you may skip
step 1 above, and change the yarn command in step 3 as follows:
yarn run start:electron:dev --regtest --daemonpath=<path/to/united>
This will instruct the wallet GUI to launch a Unit-e daemon in the background.
The command-line flags for the Electron application are:
--v– enable verbose logging to the terminal.--dev– start the wallet GUI in developer mode. This automatically opens Chrome Developer Tools on client launch. Note that the developer mode requires that you start an Angular development server in another terminal (as shown above)--devport=XXX– connect to the Angular development server on a port other than the default of 4200.--datadir=<dir>– specify the directory to store the wallet and blockchain data--rpcport=<port>,--rpcuser=<user>,--rpcpassword=<password>,--rpcbind=<ip>– set custom Unit-e JSON-RPC connection parameters--proxy=<ip:port>– connect to the P2P network through SOCKS5 proxy--regtest– use the testing environment and connect to a daemon launched in regtest mode.--testnet– connect to a daemon using the testnet chain.--upnp– use UPnP to map the listening port--daemonpath– use a custom path for the Unit-e daemon started by the wallet GUI, e.g.--daemonpath=/opt/unite/bin/united
Omitting the --regtest flag forces the Electron client to connect to a testnet
Unit-e daemon by default.
Run the unit tests with
ng test
This will open a browser window where the tests are running and show progress on the command line. Keep the window open to continuously run the unit tests when changing the code.
yarn run start:electron:fast– disables debug messages for faster startup (keep in mind using:fastdisables auto-reload of app on code change)
Building for Windows requires the 32-bit libraries to be available.
sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib
sudo apt-get install g++-multilib
yarn run package:win– Windowsyarn run package:mac– OSXyarn run package:linux– Linux
