This guide will explain how to install the terrad and terracli entrypoints onto your system. With these installed on a server, you can participate in the latest testnet as either a Full Node or a Validator.
Install go by following the official docs.
::: tip Go 1.12+ + is required for Terra Core. :::
Next, let's install the latest version of Terra Core. Here we'll use the master branch, which contains the latest stable release.
If necessary, make sure you git checkout the correct
released version.
git clone https://github.com/terra-project/core/
git checkout master
makeNOTE: If you have issues at this step, please check that you have the latest stable version of GO installed.
That will install the terrad and terracli binaries. Verify that everything is OK:
$ terrad version --long
$ terracli version --longterracli for instance should output something similar to:
terra-money: 0.1
