This is a quick introduction to get new developers and witnesses up to speed on Peerplays blockchain.
For Ubuntu 14.04 LTS and up users, see this link first: https://github.com/cryptonomex/graphene/wiki/build-ubuntu
and then proceed with:
git clone https://github.com/pbsa/peerplays.git
cd peerplays
git submodule update --init --recursive
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug .
make
./programs/witness_node/witness_node
This will launch the witness node. If you would like to launch the command-line wallet, you must first specify a port
for communication with the witness node. To do this, add text to witness_node_data_dir/config.ini as follows, then
restart the node:
rpc-endpoint = 127.0.0.1:8090
Then, in a separate terminal window, start the command-line wallet cli_wallet:
./programs/cli_wallet/cli_wallet
To set your iniital password to 'password' use:
>>> set_password password
>>> unlock password
To import your initial balance:
>>> import_balance nathan [5KQwrPbwdL6PhXujxW37FSSQZ1JiwsST4cqQzDeyXtP79zkvFD3] true
If you send private keys over this connection, rpc-endpoint should be bound to localhost for security.
A list of CLI wallet commands is available here.
The role of the witness node is to broadcast transactions, download blocks, and optionally sign them.

Register your username at the faucet address.
Use the get_private_key_from_password command in cli_wallet with the password downloaded during your username signup to access your private keys. You will need owner, active, and memo
import_keys into your cli_wallet
upgrade_account username true
create_witness username url true Be sure to take note of the block_signing_key and use get_private_key so you can have your key pair for your config.
get_witness username (note the "id" for your config)
Modify your witness_node config.ini to include your witness id and private key pair.
start your witness specifying the seed node: ./programs/cli_wallet/cli_wallet --seed-node=213.184.225.234:59500
