Bitdb Microservice

An API Endpoint + Web Query UI for BitDB

How it works

This project contains:

1. BitDB Microservice API Endpoint: An HTTP API Endpoint to your BitDB
2. BitDB Query Web UI: As seen in https://bitdb.fountainhead.cash/explorer

Prerequisites

You must have the following installed.

1. DeVault Full Node: Any DVT node implementation
2. Bitdb Node: Bitdb is a universal database that autonomously synchronizes with DeVault https://github.com/devaultcrypto/bitd

Install

Clone the Bitserve repository:

git clone https://github.com/devaultcrypto/bitserve.git && cd bitserve

Install dependencies:

npm install

Configure Bitserve:

You can configure the service with .env, just copy .env.example to .env and edit it to match your system.

cp .env.example .env

To enable/disable rate-limiting change ratelimit_disabled to either 1 for off or 0 for on. ratelimit_requests is enforced in a 60-second window. same_domain_sockserve should be set to 1 only if your webserver set to serve sockserve's /channel page and /s/ API endpoint on the same domain as bitserve.

vim .env
