Storj is a platform, token, and suite of decentralized applications that allows you to store data in a secure and decentralized manner. Your files are encrypted, shredded into little pieces called 'shards' and stored in a global decentralized network of computers. Only you have access and the ability to retrieve all shards from the network, decrypt them, and finally re-combine all file pieces into your original file.
See our documentation at Storj docs.
The community site hosts all information about building storj from source, how to contribute code and documentation, who to contact about what, etc.
First of all install git
, golang
and redis-server
and add environment variables.
apt-get install git golang redis-server
echo 'export GOPATH="$HOME/go"' >> $HOME/.bashrc
echo 'export PATH="$PATH:${GOPATH//://bin:}/bin"' >> $HOME/.bashrc
source $HOME/.bashrc
brew install git go redis
if test -e $HOME/.bash_profile
then
echo 'export GOPATH="$HOME/go"' >> $HOME/.bash_profile
echo 'export PATH="$PATH:${GOPATH//://bin:}/bin"' >> $HOME/.bash_profile
source $HOME/.bash_profile
else
echo 'export GOPATH="$HOME/go"' >> $HOME/.profile
echo 'export PATH="$PATH:${GOPATH//://bin:}/bin"' >> $HOME/.profile
source $HOME/.profile

Clone the storj repository. You may want to clone your own fork and branch.
git clone https://github.com/storj/storj $GOPATH/src/storj.io/storj
go get
can be used to install all dependencies. The execution will take some time. You can add -v if you want to get more feedback.
go get -t storj.io/storj/...
Fix error message cannot use "github.com/minio/cli"
See minio/minio#5974 for more details.
go get -t github.com/minio/cli && rm -rf $GOPATH/src/github.com/minio/minio/vendor/github.com/minio/cli
go get -t storj.io/storj/...
go clean -testcache
go test storj.io/storj/...
You can execute only a single test package. For example: go test storj.io/storj/pkg/kademlia
. Add -v for more informations about the executed unit tests.
