Dashcore Node

A SUQA 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 [SUQA (SUQAd)]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.

Usages

As a standalone server

git clone https://github.com/crptec/suqacore-node
cd suqacore-node
./bin/suqacore-node start

When running the start command, it will seek for a .suqacore folder with a suqacore-node.json conf file. If it doesn't exist, it will create it, with basic task to connect to suqacored.

Some plugins are available :

• Insight-API : `./bin/suqacore-node addservice @crptec/insight-api
• Insight-UI : ./bin/suqacore-node addservice @crptec/insight-ui

You also might want to add these index to your SUQA.conf file :

-addressindex
-timestampindex
-spentindex

As a library

npm install @crptec/suqacore-node

const suqacore = require('@crptec/suqacore-node');
const config = require('./suqacore-node.json');

let node = suqacore.scaffold.start({ path: "", config: config });
node.on('ready', function() {
    //Dash core started
    suqacored.on('tx', function(txData) {
        let tx = new suqacore.lib.Transaction(txData);
    });
});

Prerequisites

• SUQAd
• Node.js v8.11
• ZeroMQ (libzmq3-dev for Ubuntu/Debian or zeromq on OSX)
• ~20GB of disk storage
• ~1GB of RAM

Configuration

suqacore includes a Command Line Interface (CLI) for managing, configuring and interfacing with your suqacore Node.

suqacore-node create -d <SUQA-data-dir> mynode
cd mynode
suqacore-node install <service>
suqacore-node install https://github.com/yourname/helloworld
suqacore-node start

This will create a directory with configuration files for your node and install the necessary dependencies.

Please note that [SUQA Core] needs to be installed first.

For more information about (and developing) services, please see the Service Documentation.
