See the "Assets" at the bottom to download and install this version.

IMPORTANT NOTE: In one of the upcoming releases, the conductor's databases will start to be encrypted at rest, anticipating the same upcoming change of the official Holochain repository. This means that it will be impossible to access any data stored with earlier versions of the Holochain Launcher, including this one.

Supported Holochain Versions

  • Holochain v0.0.143 (HDK v0.0.136)
  • Holochain v0.0.145 (HDK v0.0.138)
  • Holochain v0.0.150 (HDK v0.0.142)
  • Holochain v0.0.152 (HDK v0.0.144)
  • Holochain v0.0.154 (HDK v0.0.146)

Pre-Release

This is not yet a production ready release. Expect bugs, and features not working perfectly.

Feedback is really appreciated! Go to Help > Report Issue to file a bug in this repository.

Changes

  • Added support for Holochain versions v0.0.150, v0.0.152 and v0.0.154.
  • Added a workaround for an error that could occur when launching a Holochain version within the launcher (#55).

If you installed previous versions of the Holochain Launcher it is possible that you need to perform a factory reset in order to be able to install and run apps.

Installation

Windows

  1. Download and install the Microsoft WebView package.
  2. Download the Holochain Launcher .msi file and double click on it.
  3. If the Microsoft Defender SmartScreen pops up, click on "More information" and click "Execute anyway".
  4. Run through the setup.

If during the installation an error shows saying "A program run as part of the setup did not finish as expected", install the Microsoft WebView and try installing the Holochain Launcher again.

MacOs (supported versions: v10.13 and later)

  1. Download the .dmg, open it, and drag the application to your Applications folder.
  2. Go to your applications folder, and (important!) right click on it, and click open.
  3. Click 'Open' when it gives you a warning about 'Unidentified Developer'.

Linux

AppImage

  1. Download the .AppImage.
  2. Install it (you may have to give executable permissions to the AppImage file).

Deb

  1. Upgrade your dependencies with sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get upgrade.
  2. Download the .deb file.
  3. Install it (you may have to upgrade your dependencies).

Aur

If you're on ArchLinux, you can go to https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/holochain-launcher/ and install the package with pacman or yay.

Note

  • This is not yet a production ready release, mainly due to security reasons. This will become possible once the Holochain immune system gets fully implemented, the encryption at rest is enabled, and there is a security audit confirming that the system is secure.
  • Security warnings on Windows and MacOs will be removed in future versions.
