Artifacts

Specter is available in several forms: as a GUI application, as a binary that can be executed like a web app, as a PyPI package, and as a Docker image.

Signed hashsum files are available for all binaries.

GUI Application

This is a GUI application with a windowed interface, which includes the Specter server.
Supported platforms: Windows, MacOS, Linux (x86_64)

Note on Linux: you need to set up udev rules (included in the archive). Check out the readme.

Note on macOS: The macOS application is currently not code-signed or notarized by Apple. After downloading the DMG and installing, macOS Gatekeeper will block the app. To fix this, run in Terminal:

cd /Applications
xattr -cr "Specter.app"

The current build supports macOS Catalina (10.15) or higher. If you'd like to run Specter on an older macOS version, you can install Specter from Pip. See #2530 for details.

specterd

Specterd is a command-line program that runs only the Specter server, behaving like a traditional web application.
Supported platforms: Windows, MacOS, Linux (x86_64)

PyPi Packages

If you're experienced Python user and/or developer, you might appreciate the pypi-packages which are also available on our github-release-page.

Docker

Official Docker images are published to GitHub Container Registry:

docker pull ghcr.io/cryptoadvance/specter-desktop:v2.1.11

See all available tags at ghcr.io/cryptoadvance/specter-desktop.

For releases prior to v2.1.2, Docker images were provided by the Chiang Mai LN devs.
