Bitcore Node

A Hush 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 Bitcoin Core with additional indexing 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

npm install -g bitcore-node-hush
bitcore-node start

Prerequisites

  • GNU/Linux x86_32/x86_64, or OSX 64bit (for hushd distributed binaries)
  • Node.js v0.10, v0.12 or v4
  • ZeroMQ (libzmq3-dev for Ubuntu/Debian or zeromq on OSX)
  • ~200GB of disk storage
  • ~8GB of RAM

Configuration

bitcore-node create -d <bitcoin-data-dir> mynode
cd mynode
