This project requires Xcode 9 and a Mac running macOS 10.12.6 or later.
This repository builds standalone Zcash binaries for macOS platform without installing brew.
All build tools (autoconf, automake, libtool, pkgconfig, cmake, install and readlink
) andZcash
are compiled from scratch.
# run once to install Xcode CLI tools$ xcode-select --install# clone and build Zcash on macOS$ git clone https://github.com/kozyilmaz/zcash-apple.git$cd zcash-apple$source environment$ make
In case of an error please run the following command for debug info
$ PRINT_DEBUG=y make all
After successful build Zcash binaries will be installed toout
directory under project root
You can then copy binary directory anywhere you like there are no dependencies to the build tree anymore

When launchingZcash
on MacOS for the first time, certain initalization steps should be completed.
Please run the commands below once for the first time
$cd out/usr/local/bin# for testnet$ ./zcash-fetch-params --testnet# for mainnet$ ./zcash-fetch-params$ ./zcash-init$ ./zcashd
You can just runZcash
by launching the daemon afterwards. After blockchain is sync'd, you can use the sample commands provided inzcash-commands.txt
$ ./zcashd
Console output from the first run is below:
bash-3.2$ ./zcash-fetch-paramsZcash - fetch-params.shThis script will fetch the Zcash zkSNARK parameters and verify theirintegrity with sha256sum.If they already exist locally, it willexit now anddo nothing else.The parameters are currently just under 911MBin size, so plan accordinglyfor your bandwidth constraints. If the files are already present andhave the correct sha256sum, no networking is used.Creating params directory.

You can read more about configs and changing between networkhere on zcash's example config file.
Now your config is good to go, start the network back up:
$cd out/usr/local/bin$ ./zcashd
$cd out/usr/local/bin$ ./zcash-cli getmininginfo
should look like this:
"testnet": true, "chain": "test",
