# Using prebuilds
|
|
|
|
Prebuilds are more convenient way of using monero_c in your code (although these builds should **NOT** be used in
|
|
production). There are several ways in which you can use prebuilds
|
|
|
|
## The monero_c way
|
|
|
|
1. Go to https://github.com/MrCyjaneK/monero_c/releases
|
|
2. Click on the release that you are interested in
|
|
3. Download release-bundle.zip
|
|
4. Unzip it in monero_c directory
|
|
|
|
That zip file contains all builds that monero_c supports prepared in the exactly same way as you would prepare them if
|
|
building on your own. This is the easiest way to get started.
|
|
|
|
> Keep in mind that release-bundle.zip contains .xz files inside, so if you want to actually use them you need to use
|
|
> them you need to unxz them first
|
|
> ```bash
|
|
> $ unxz -f -k release/*/*.xz
|
|
> ```
|
|
|
|
## The monero_c way (different)
|
|
|
|
Alternatively you can go to releases tab and grab whatever you need, there are over 40 libraries. Surely one will fit
|
|
your use case.
|
|
|
|
## The build_moneroc.sh way
|
|
|
|
This method is used by [xmruw](https://github.com/mrcyjanek/unnamed_monero_wallet) and
|
|
[monero-tui](https://github.com/Im-Beast/monero-tui).
|
|
|
|
It supports both building and downloading prebuilds and putting them in correct location, [have a look at the code
|
|
yourself](https://github.com/MrCyjaneK/unnamed_monero_wallet/blob/master-rewrite/build_moneroc.sh)
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
$ ./build_moneroc.sh
|
|
--prebuild # allow downloads of prebuilds
|
|
--coin # monero/wownero
|
|
--tag v0.18.3.3-RC45 # which tag to build / download
|
|
--triplet x86_64-linux-android # which triplet to build / download
|
|
--location android/.../jniLibs/x86_64 # where to but the libraries
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## The cake wallet way
|
|
|
|
There is a simple script in cake_wallet written in `dart` that runs on all platform (including windows) which downloads
|
|
all required libraries for selected platforms in one go.
|
|
[You can take look at it here](https://github.com/cake-tech/cake_wallet/blob/main/tool/download_moneroc_prebuilds.dart) |
