Install binaries

You can install and use GoQuorum and Tessera using Docker containers, building from source, or by downloading pre-built release binaries.

Release binaries​

The pre-compiled release binaries for GoQuorum and Tessera can be downloaded from the following links:

Once downloaded, add the binaries to the PATH environment variable to make them easier to run.

Build from source​

GoQuorum​

note

We recommend installing from official containers or release binaries rather than building from source. If you build from source, use Go version 1.15 or later.

  1. Clone the repository and build the source:

    git clone https://github.com/Consensys/quorum.git
    cd quorum
    make all

    Binaries are placed in $REPO_ROOT/build/bin. Add that folder to the PATH environment variable to make geth and bootnode easier to run, or copy those binaries to a folder already in PATH, for example /usr/local/bin.

    info

    An easy way to supplement PATH is to add PATH=$PATH:/path/to/repository/build/bin to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.bash_aliases file.

  2. Run the tests:

    make test

Tessera​

Follow the installation instructions on the Tessera project page](https://github.com/ConsenSys/tessera).
