ARM64 support on Linux #115

blackmennewstyle · 2022-01-17T14:43:51Z

Hello talented devs :)

Can we hope for some arm64 support in the future? I'm planning to install the wallet on a Raspberry Pi 4 8GB running GNU/Linux Debian 11 - kernel 5.10.0-9-arm64, is it possible at the current stage of the project? If not, will it be possible in the future? :$

Hey there, thanks for your message!
The ARM64 architecture is not yet supported on Linux, mostly due to the lack of demand so far. But here you are...
So yeah, we can definitely hope for some arm64 in the future, probably in the next release! ;)

Nice :)
Merci beaucoup Mikaël !
Enjoy your week :)

@nop33 Hey Ilias, could you look into this while I'm testing the address derivation & UX?
It should basically be 1 flag to add in the package.json script + adapt the corresponding github build action.
Do you still have VMWare running on your M1 mac? If so, should be quite easy to spin up an arm64 build of debian / ubuntu. If not, don't spend to much effort on this RN. KMP, thanks!

nop33 · 2022-02-28T12:50:25Z

Hey @mvaivre, I am working on implementing tests for the settings utility functions of the wallet project, as we discussed in the PR. I don't have a VMWare installed, but I can install one. I can do that after I implement the tests.

Hello @blackmennewstyle! I've added a new npm script that you can use to build the app for ARM64 from source (I updated the README with instructions). Unfortunately, I couldn't get GitHub's CI to work with ARM64 just yet. The process to build for ARM64 from source is very simple:

npm install
npm run electron-pack-linux:arm64

Keep in mind that the master branch is cutting-edge code and should not be used in production. Use code from the releases instead.

Hello :)

Thank you for your response. I'm not really an expert with npm but if i understand correctly, i need to download the sources from a release, for example: https://github.com/alephium/alephium-wallet/archive/refs/tags/v1.1.0.tar.gz . And i should replace the package.json contained in the tar.gz file with this one: https://github.com/alephium/alephium-wallet/blob/support-arm64-linux/package.json

nop33 · 2022-03-01T13:49:55Z

..., i need to download the sources from a release, for example: https://github.com/alephium/alephium-wallet/archive/refs/tags/v1.1.0.tar.gz . And i should replace the package.json contained in the tar.gz file with this one: https://github.com/alephium/alephium-wallet/blob/support-arm64-linux/package.json

That would probably work, but there might have been other changes in the package.json file between v1.1.0 and the latest master which might cause your procedure to not work. I would recommend following the following procedure (assuming you are not very familiar with git):

Extract the contents of the ZIP/tar.gz file
Open your terminal
Navigate to the extracted ZIP folder
Execute the command npm install
Execute the command npm run build && npx electron-builder -l --arm64
The .deb file will be inside the /dist directory

I hope this helps!

Hm, I didn't face this issue on my arm64 MacBook. Maybe this helps? jordansissel/fpm#1801 (comment) (or this electron-userland/electron-builder#5154 (comment))
