Flocore
Infrastructure to build Florincoin and blockchain-based applications for the next generation of financial technology.
Note: If you're looking for the Flocore Library please see: https://github.com/bitpay/flocore-lib
Getting Started
Before you begin you'll need to have Node.js v8 installed. There are several options for installation. One method is to use nvm to easily switch between different versions, or download directly from Node.js.
npm install -g flocore
Running a Flocore server
Spin up a full node and join the network:
npm install -g flocore
flocored
You can then view the Insight block explorer at the default location: http://localhost:3001/insight
, and your configuration file will be found in your home directory at ~/.flocore
.
Using Flocore programmatically
Create a transaction:
var flocore = require('flocore');
var transaction = new flocore.Transaction();
var transaction.from(unspent).to(address, amount);
transaction.sign(privateKey);
