It was possible to get into a state where we were waiting for lianad to start, which was waiting on a response from bitcoind which in turn was waiting on the GUI to make room in its piped stdout buffer. Deadlock. Instead of getting its logs from stdout, read its debug.log file. Co-Authored-By: Antoine Poinsot <darosior@protonmail.com>
Liana GUI
The Liana graphical interface.
Dependencies
You will need a few dependencies in order to run correctly this software. For Linux systems, those are:
fontconfigfor access to fonts (On Debian/Ubuntuapt install libfontconfig1-dev)libudev-devto communicate with devices through USB (On Debian/Ubuntuapt install libudev-dev)
In addition, if you want to build the project from source, you will need:
pkg-config(On Debian/Ubuntuapt install pkg-config)
Usage
For a quick guide to try out the software see ../doc/TRY.md.
liana-gui --datadir <datadir> --<network>
The default datadir is the same as for lianad (~/.liana for Linux). The default network is
Bitcoin mainnet, but testnet signet and regtest are supported.
If the software is started with no parameter and no data directory is detected, a Liana installer will be spawned that will guide you in the processing of configuring Liana.
If the software is started and a reachable lianad is running, it will plug to it via lianad's
JSONRPC interface.
Troubleshooting
- If you encounter layout issue on
X11, try to start the GUI withWINIT_X11_SCALE_FACTORmanually set to 1
