Build cardano-cli v8 from input-output-hk

Please note that version 8 as successor of the previous v1.35.x codebase has undergone an extensive revision. So the build process on your system may be a bit different than you were used to.

We provide a build script here, which was tested on Linux/Ubuntu, and should serve you as a help. If it does not run successfully on your system, please try to find the adjustments for your system using the steps that are already given there.

Build requirements

The cabal and ghc binaries should be versions known to work for compiling cardano-node. If you do not normally compile your own cardano-node the following versions are known to work.

  • cabal 3.6.2.0
  • ghc 8.10.7

Download the build script

mkdir "$HOME/tmp";cd "$HOME/tmp"
# Install curl
# CentOS / RedHat - sudo dnf -y install curl
# Ubuntu / Debian - sudo apt -y install curl
curl -sS -o build_CCLI8.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/cardano-foundation/CIP-0094-polls/main/scripts/build_CCLI8.sh
chmod 755 build_CCLI8.sh

Execute the build script

Now execute ./build_CCLI8.sh.

The script will explain each step it will do. Confirm with [Enter] or abort the script if something doesn't seem right. It is designed to rely on an existing local clone of IOG's cardano-node repository on your computer. If successfull it will not overwrite your existing cardano-cli but instead save it into a dedicated subfolder.
