Building Nerbus Wallet

Windows x64

Install Visual Studio C++ Build Tools, Qt 6.6.2 MSVC x64, CMake, and Ninja. From PowerShell in this repository, download the pinned libsodium dependency:

powershell -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File scripts/fetch-sodium.ps1

From an x64 Visual Studio developer prompt:

cmake -S . -B build -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=C:/Qt/6.6.2/msvc2019_64
cmake --build build --parallel 2
C:/Qt/6.6.2/msvc2019_64/bin/windeployqt.exe --release --compiler-runtime build/nerbus-qt.exe
copy nerbus.svg build\nerbus.svg

Copy the separately built nerbus-wallet-core.exe beside nerbus-qt.exe. libsodium.dll is copied by CMake. Distribute the complete runtime folder.

Linux x86_64

sudo apt-get install build-essential cmake pkg-config qt6-base-dev libqt6svg6-dev libsodium-dev
cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build build -j2
cp nerbus.svg build/

Place a native nerbus-wallet-core beside nerbus-qt. Install Qt runtime dependencies or bundle them with the desktop application. The prepared Linux package targets Ubuntu 22.04 / glibc 2.35 and uses X11 or XWayland.

Offline signing helper

Clone and build Nerbus Core for the target platform first. core/nerbus-wallet-core.cpp replaces the transaction utility's entry point and includes its original source. The detailed procedure is in BUILD.txt, section OFFLINE NRB CORE COMPONENT. Keep this helper separate from the standard nerbus-tx utility and restore the original source and utility after compiling it. Windows dependencies must be built with MinGW; the GUI uses MSVC, and they communicate over an anonymous pipe.

The server bridge is in server/. It is not required for local address creation.
