Bitflow
#Getting Started
Bitflow runs on Bitcore and Node.js, and can be installed via npm:
npm install bitflow
Here is an example.js file that will start the Bitflow server and will be accessible from a web browser at http://127.0.0.1:8080/ on a local machine:
var bitflow = require('bitflow');
var config = {
host : 'http://127.0.0.1', // host for the web server
port : '8080', // port for the web server
debug : false, // true or false
network : 'livenet', // livenet or testnet
max_peers : 6
}
var server = new bitflow.BitflowServer(config);
And run example.js using node:
$ node example.js
Another means is to use the start script bitflow.js that is included in the module and to set environment variables:
$ export BITFLOW_HOST='http://example.com'
$ export BITFLOW_PORT='80'
$ node /path/to/module/bitflow.js
