Build instructions in README #154

Closed rapodaca closed 9 years ago

rapodaca commented 9 years ago

The README says:

If you're a developer, build instructions are at the end of this README.

But there are no build instructions. I don't use Maven much, so the procedure wan't obvious. I was able to figure it out (I think), and wrote up something that could be included in the README:

building from source

Building Lighthouse from source requires the Maven build tool and the bitcoinj library.

The latest version of bitcoinj should be installed from source:

$ git clone https://github.com/bitcoinj/bitcoinj
$ cd bitcoinj
$ mvn clean install

Compile Lighthouse with:

$ git clone https://github.com/vinumeris/lighthouse
$ cd lighthouse
$ mvn clean package

Run Lighthouse with:

$ java -jar client/target/shaded.jar

I'm willing to revise/submit PR if needed.
