Download and Install the StackHub daemon

The StackHub daemon requires a Java 1.5 VM and the ability to open an outbound TCP connection to port 80/443. Let's make sure you have the right version handy.

$> /path/to/your/installation/of/java -version

1. Click on your preferred download format

2. Start up the daemon

$> cd stackhub-0.9
$> /path/to/your/installation/of/java -jar stackhub-0.9.jar your-app-token-that-looks-like-a-SHA1-hash

3. You'll see something like this:

Discovered /10.0.1.2 and binding to it on port 8888

4. Want to use a different IP address and/or port?

$> java -Dport=9999 -DlistenIP=192.168.1.77 -jar stackhub-0.9.jar your-app-token-that-looks-like-a-SHA1-hash

5. Great! Let's get your application talking to the daemon.
