v_mod6_genesis 8 0x00]: Introduction
v_mod6_genesis 9
v_mod6_genesis 10 Welcome to V!
v_mod6_genesis 11
v_mod6_genesis 12 This document is intended to be a users manual for mod6's perl implementation
v_mod6_genesis 13 of V. Contained herein the user will find usage explanations and examples of
v_mod6_genesis 14 the many options available.
v_mod6_genesis 15
v_mod6_genesis 16 0x01]: Getting Started
v_mod6_genesis 17
v_mod6_genesis 18 [ Check if perl is installed & version ]:
v_mod6_genesis 19
v_mod6_genesis 20 First, in order to execute the perl version of V, the user must have perl
v_mod6_genesis 21 version 5.005 or greater installed on the local UNIX environment. Perl
v_mod6_genesis 22 typically comes installed on many UNIX environments ahead of time, but just
v_mod6_genesis 23 to be sure, do the following from the command prompt:
v_mod6_genesis 24
v_mod6_genesis 25 perl --version
v_mod6_genesis 26
v_mod6_genesis 27 The user should see a lengthy version message that starts with something
v_mod6_genesis 28 like this:
v_mod6_genesis 29
v_mod6_genesis 30 `This is perl 5, version 18, subversion 2 (v5.18.2) ...'
v_mod6_genesis 31
v_mod6_genesis 32 If not, please install perl 5.005 or greater before going any further:
v_mod6_genesis 33
v_mod6_genesis 34 Ubuntu:
v_mod6_genesis 35 apt-get install -y perl
v_mod6_genesis 36
v_mod6_genesis 37 Gentoo:
v_mod6_genesis 38 emerge =perl-5.20.2.ebuild
v_mod6_genesis 39
v_mod6_genesis 40 [ Install CPAN ]:
v_mod6_genesis 41
v_mod6_genesis 42 If it is desired to at all use the graphing feature of V the user will need
v_mod6_genesis 43 to install CPAN [ `cpan` or `cpanm` or on gentoo, `g-cpan` ] so that the
v_mod6_genesis 44 Graph::Easy perl library can be installed.
v_mod6_genesis 45
v_mod6_genesis 46 Ubuntu:
v_mod6_genesis 47
v_mod6_genesis 48 apt-get install cpanminus
v_mod6_genesis 49 cpanm -i Graph::Easy
v_mod6_genesis 50
v_mod6_genesis 51 Gentoo [x86-64]:
v_mod6_genesis 52
v_mod6_genesis 53 emerge g-cpan
v_mod6_genesis 54
v_mod6_genesis 55 [ NOTE: Copy the next nine lines exacty as they are presented here and ]
v_mod6_genesis 56 [ then paste them into the shell. ]

v_mod6_genesis 66
v_mod6_genesis 67 g-cpan -i Graph::Easy
v_mod6_genesis 68
v_mod6_genesis 69 [ Install GnuPG ]:
v_mod6_genesis 70
v_mod6_genesis 71 The user will need GnuPG installed locally to run V, if you already have
v_mod6_genesis 72 this installed, skip this step.
v_mod6_genesis 73
v_mod6_genesis 74 Ubuntu:
v_mod6_genesis 75 sudo apt-get install -y gnupg
v_mod6_genesis 76
v_mod6_genesis 77 [NOTE: 1.4.19 seems to be the oldest portage a recent gentoo ships with)]:
v_mod6_genesis 78 Gentoo:
v_mod6_genesis 79 emerge =gnupg-1.4.19
v_mod6_genesis 80
v_mod6_genesis 81 [ Install wget ]:
v_mod6_genesis 82
v_mod6_genesis 83 Many UNIX systems come with `wget` installed already, if yours does not,
v_mod6_genesis 84 install it:
v_mod6_genesis 85
v_mod6_genesis 86 Ubuntu:
v_mod6_genesis 87 sudo apt-get install -y wget
v_mod6_genesis 88
v_mod6_genesis 89 Gentoo:
v_mod6_genesis 90 emerge wget
v_mod6_genesis 91
v_mod6_genesis 92 [ Install GraphViz ]:
v_mod6_genesis 93
v_mod6_genesis 94 In addition to Graph::Easy, if you wish to have V automatically build the
v_mod6_genesis 95 SVG graph in an HTML output file for you from the Dot language output file,
v_mod6_genesis 96 also output by V, you need to install GraphViz.
v_mod6_genesis 97
v_mod6_genesis 98 Ubuntu:
v_mod6_genesis 99 sudo apt-get install -y graphviz
v_mod6_genesis 100
v_mod6_genesis 101 Gentoo:
v_mod6_genesis 102 emerge -a graphviz
v_mod6_genesis 103 etc-update [ enter -5 when prompted ]
v_mod6_genesis 104 emerge -a graphviz [ Answer Yes at prompt ]
v_mod6_genesis 105
v_mod6_genesis 106 [ Download V Archive ]:
v_mod6_genesis 107
v_mod6_genesis 108 Now you must obtain the V archive & signature from:
v_mod6_genesis 109
v_mod6_genesis 110 http://thebitcoin.foundation/v/V-20170317.tar.gz
v_mod6_genesis 111 http://thebitcoin.foundation/v/V-20170317.tar.gz.mod6.sig
v_mod6_genesis 112
v_mod6_genesis 113 Then check the PGP signatures supplied:
v_mod6_genesis 114
v_mod6_genesis 115 wget http://mod6.net/mod6.asc -O mod6.asc
v_mod6_genesis 116 gpg --import mod6.asc
v_mod6_genesis 117
v_mod6_genesis 118 [ Key Fingerprint: 0x027A8D7C0FB8A16643720F40721705A8B71EADAF ]
v_mod6_genesis 119
v_mod6_genesis 120 gpg --verify V-20170317.tar.gz.mod6.sig V-20170317.tar.gz
v_mod6_genesis 121
v_mod6_genesis 122 Then unpack the archive:
v_mod6_genesis 123
v_mod6_genesis 124 tar -xf V-20170317.tar.gz
v_mod6_genesis 125
v_mod6_genesis 126 [ Start V for the first time ]:
v_mod6_genesis 127
v_mod6_genesis 128 First, set the executable bit on v.pl:
v_mod6_genesis 129
v_mod6_genesis 130 chmod 0755 v.pl
v_mod6_genesis 131
v_mod6_genesis 132 Before you get any further, create a '.wot' directory (V looks for '.wot'
v_mod6_genesis 133 in the current working directory by default) and populate it with PGP public
v_mod6_genesis 134 keys manually. Name the pubkey files as such: <wotid>.asc
v_mod6_genesis 135
v_mod6_genesis 136 For example: mod6.asc
v_mod6_genesis 137
v_mod6_genesis 138 Now have V sync the required Seals and Patches directories from a signed
v_mod6_genesis 139 mirror. To view the list of mirrors, run the following command, the output
v_mod6_genesis 140 you'll see below.
v_mod6_genesis 141
v_mod6_genesis 142 ./v.pl m v_mirrors
v_mod6_genesis 143 Mirrors signed by (mod6):
v_mod6_genesis 144 http://thebitcoin.foundation
v_mod6_genesis 145
v_mod6_genesis 146 As stated from mirrors output we can use URL from The Bitcoin Foundation to
v_mod6_genesis 147 sync V up-to-date with all the latest WoT entries (PGP Public Keys), VPatch
v_mod6_genesis 148 Signatures (Seals) and Vpatches.
v_mod6_genesis 149
v_mod6_genesis 150 To begin this initial sync do the following:
v_mod6_genesis 151
v_mod6_genesis 152 ./v.pl i http://thebitcoin.foundation
v_mod6_genesis 153
v_mod6_genesis 154
v_mod6_genesis 155 0x01]: V Usage
v_mod6_genesis 156
v_mod6_genesis 157 At this point the user has installed all of V's requirements, performed a
v_mod6_genesis 158 lookup of available signed mirrors, and sync'd the WoT, Patches and Seals.
v_mod6_genesis 159
v_mod6_genesis 160 What follows are usages and definitions of V's options with examples.
v_mod6_genesis 161
v_mod6_genesis 162 A note about option syntax. Any option enclosed with parenthesis ( ) is
v_mod6_genesis 163 required. The | separates any aliases of commands. Square brackets [ ]
v_mod6_genesis 164 denote optional options. Angle brackets < > denote required arguments to
v_mod6_genesis 165 a given command.
v_mod6_genesis 166
v_mod6_genesis 167 [ m | mirrors ]:
v_mod6_genesis 168 Arguments:
v_mod6_genesis 169 (<output_dir>)
v_mod6_genesis 170
v_mod6_genesis 171 The m or mirrors command is available to connect to the main V site:
v_mod6_genesis 172 http://thebitcoin.foundation Here, V can connect and pull the list of
v_mod6_genesis 173 available mirrors, signed by mirror administrators with L1 trust with
v_mod6_genesis 174 assbot and are in good standing in the WoT. Ask mod6 about this if you
v_mod6_genesis 175 want to run an authorized, signed mirror of V.
v_mod6_genesis 176
v_mod6_genesis 177 The mirrors command takes one required argument, an output directory for the
v_mod6_genesis 178 list of mirrors and the signatures so V can verify the list.
v_mod6_genesis 179
v_mod6_genesis 180 Example:
v_mod6_genesis 181 ./v.pl m v_mirrors
v_mod6_genesis 182 Mirrors signed by (mod6):
v_mod6_genesis 183 http://thebitcoin.foundation
v_mod6_genesis 184
v_mod6_genesis 185 [ i | init ]:
v_mod6_genesis 186
v_mod6_genesis 187 Arguments & Options:
v_mod6_genesis 188 (mirror_url) [(<pdir> <sdir>)]
v_mod6_genesis 189
v_mod6_genesis 190 The i or init command is intended to be utilized the first time running V
v_mod6_genesis 191 on an environment. It takes one required option, and two optional
v_mod6_genesis 192 options. The required argument is a V mirror URL to sync from. Next, the
v_mod6_genesis 193 user can choose to use the default Patches ('patches' in the current working
v_mod6_genesis 194 directory) and Seals (.seals in the current working directory) directories
v_mod6_genesis 195 by not setting the two <pdir> or <sdir> options -- only passing a mirror URL
v_mod6_genesis 196 argument to the init command. If the user wishes to use their own named
v_mod6_genesis 197 directories, simply pass in those arguements in the exact order specified.
v_mod6_genesis 198
v_mod6_genesis 199 Example:
v_mod6_genesis 200 ./v.pl i http://thebitcoin.foundation
v_mod6_genesis 201 Full vpatch sync complete to "/home/mod6/patches"
v_mod6_genesis 202 Seal sync complete to "/home/mod6/.seals"
v_mod6_genesis 203
v_mod6_genesis 204 Example:
v_mod6_genesis 205 ./v.pl i http://thebitcoin.foundation wot vpatches seals
v_mod6_genesis 206 Full vpatch sync complete to "vpatches"
v_mod6_genesis 207 Seal sync complete to "seals"
v_mod6_genesis 208
v_mod6_genesis 209 [ wd | wotdir ]:
v_mod6_genesis 210
v_mod6_genesis 211 Arguments:
v_mod6_genesis 212 (<wotdir>)
v_mod6_genesis 213
v_mod6_genesis 214 The wd or wotdir command is available to point V at a specific WoT
v_mod6_genesis 215 directory rather than the default: '.wot' (in the current working directory)
v_mod6_genesis 216 There is one required argument: a WoT directory.
v_mod6_genesis 217
v_mod6_genesis 218 Example case, only mod6.asc exists in wot2:
v_mod6_genesis 219 ./v.pl f wd wot2
v_mod6_genesis 220 genesis.vpatch (mod6)
v_mod6_genesis 221 bitcoin-asciilifeform.1.vpatch (mod6)
v_mod6_genesis 222 rm_rf_upnp.vpatch (mod6)
v_mod6_genesis 223 ...
v_mod6_genesis 224
v_mod6_genesis 225 [ pd | patchdir ]:
v_mod6_genesis 226
v_mod6_genesis 227 Arguments:
v_mod6_genesis 228 (<patchdir>)
v_mod6_genesis 229
v_mod6_genesis 230 The pd or patchdir command is available to point V at a specific patch
v_mod6_genesis 231 directory rather than the default: 'patches', in V's present working
v_mod6_genesis 232 directory. There is one required argument: a vpatches directory.
v_mod6_genesis 233
v_mod6_genesis 234 Example case, only genesis.vpatch exists in patches2:
v_mod6_genesis 235 ./v.pl f pd patches2
v_mod6_genesis 236 genesis.vpatch (asciilifeform, mircea_popescu, mod6, trinque)
v_mod6_genesis 237
v_mod6_genesis 238 [ sd | sealdir ]:
v_mod6_genesis 239
v_mod6_genesis 240 Arguments:
v_mod6_genesis 241 (<sealdir>)
v_mod6_genesis 242
v_mod6_genesis 243 The sd or sealdir command is available to point V at a specific seal
v_mod6_genesis 244 directory rather than the default: '.seals' (in the current working
v_mod6_genesis 245 directory)
v_mod6_genesis 246 There is one required argument: a seals directory.
v_mod6_genesis 247
v_mod6_genesis 248 Example case, only seals created by mod6 exist in seal2:
v_mod6_genesis 249 ./v.pl f sd seals2/
v_mod6_genesis 250 genesis.vpatch (mod6)

v_mod6_genesis 254
v_mod6_genesis 255 [ w | wot ]:
v_mod6_genesis 256
v_mod6_genesis 257 Options:
v_mod6_genesis 258 [ finger ]
v_mod6_genesis 259
v_mod6_genesis 260 The w or wot command will build a list of WoT entities eligable for
v_mod6_genesis 261 creating seals for approved vpatches. If a specific vpatch has not
v_mod6_genesis 262 been signed by a WoT entity, it is considered a 'WILD' vpatch, and will be
v_mod6_genesis 263 ignored. A vpatch must be signed by both Co-Chairs of The Bitcoin Foundation
v_mod6_genesis 264 to be considered approved for release.

v_mod6_genesis 282
v_mod6_genesis 283 [ r | roots ]:
v_mod6_genesis 284
v_mod6_genesis 285 The r or roots command takes no options or arguments, unless a different
v_mod6_genesis 286 pd or patchdir is specified. It simply traverses the vpatch directories
v_mod6_genesis 287 contained vpatches and returns any root vpatches found in the topological
v_mod6_genesis 288 order.
v_mod6_genesis 289
v_mod6_genesis 290 Examples:
v_mod6_genesis 291 ./v.pl r
v_mod6_genesis 292 Root: genesis.vpatch (asciilifeform, mircea_popescu, mod6, trinque)
v_mod6_genesis 293

v_mod6_genesis 299
v_mod6_genesis 300 The l or leafs command takes no options or arguments, unless a different
v_mod6_genesis 301 pd or patchdir is specified. It simply traverses the vpatch directories
v_mod6_genesis 302 contained vpatches and returns any leaf vpatches found in the topological
v_mod6_genesis 303 order.
v_mod6_genesis 304
v_mod6_genesis 305 Examples:
v_mod6_genesis 306 ./v.pl l

v_mod6_genesis 313
v_mod6_genesis 314 [ f | flow ]:
v_mod6_genesis 315
v_mod6_genesis 316 The f or flow command prints a topoligical flow of vpatches based on
v_mod6_genesis 317 precedence. By default will look for the 'patches' directory in the present
v_mod6_genesis 318 working directory of V and print the flow to stdout.
v_mod6_genesis 319
v_mod6_genesis 320 Example:
v_mod6_genesis 321 ./v.pl f

v_mod6_genesis 352 Arguments:
v_mod6_genesis 353 (<press_dir> <head>)
v_mod6_genesis 354
v_mod6_genesis 355 The p or press command is available to apply vpatches up through <head> in
v_mod6_genesis 356 topological order (see flow command) to an output directory <press_dir>.
v_mod6_genesis 357 There are two required arguments; an output directory for applied patches
v_mod6_genesis 358 <press_dir> and a vpatch <head> as the tip of the tree to press up through.
v_mod6_genesis 359 By default, no output is shown; however if the user supplies `v' or
v_mod6_genesis 360 `verbose' directly after the p or press command then the output from the
v_mod6_genesis 361 patching applcation process will be directed to stdout.

v_mod6_genesis 505 The output Dot language file can be used to generate the SVG HTML output
v_mod6_genesis 506 file with the `dot` binary. To produce the output Dot language file, the
v_mod6_genesis 507 perl library Graph::Easy must be installed on the local environment.
v_mod6_genesis 508 The optional command is given as a name for the <output_svg_html_file>.
v_mod6_genesis 509 If 'graphviz' is installed on the local environment, then the `dot` binary
v_mod6_genesis 510 should be available for V to invoke and generate the SVG HTML output for
v_mod6_genesis 511 the user automatically. If it is not possible for the user to install
v_mod6_genesis 512 'graphviz' on the local environment for whatever reason, the Dot language
v_mod6_genesis 513 output file can be copied to a seperate environment where 'graphviz' can be
v_mod6_genesis 514 installed. A command like this is used to generate the SVG HTML output
v_mod6_genesis 515 with the `dot` binary: `dot -Tsvg v-graph.dot > v-graph.html`.
