Bitcore Node Denarius
============
A Denarius full node for building applications and services with Node.js. A node is extensible and can be configured to run additional services. At the minimum a node has an interface to Denarius Core v2.5.x.x for more advanced address queries. Additional services can be enabled to make a node more useful such as exposing new APIs, running a block explorer and wallet service.
Install
``
bash
npm install -g denariicore-node
`
Prerequisites
- Denarius Core (v2.5.0.x) with support for additional indexing (see above)
- Node.js v0.10, v0.12, v4 or v5
- ZeroMQ (libzmq3-dev for Ubuntu/Debian or zeromq on OSX)
- ~20GB of disk storage
- ~1GB of RAM
Configuration
Bitcore includes a Command Line Interface (CLI) for managing, configuring and interfacing with your Bitcore Node.
`
bash
denariicore-node create -d mynode
cd mynode
denariicore-node install
denariicore-node install https://github.com/yourname/helloworld
denariicore-node start
``
This will create a directory with configuration files for your node and install the necessary dependencies.
Please note that
Denarius Core v2.5.0.x will be downloaded automatically. Once completed the denariusd binary should be placed into the <denarius-data-dir> folder specified during node creation.
For more information about (and developing) services, please see the
