Requirements

• Trusted P2P Peer
• MongoDB Server >= v3.4

Checkout the repo

git clone [email protected]:devaultcrypto/bitcore-dvt.git
git checkout master
npm install

Setup Guide

1. Setup Bitcore config

Example bitcore.config.json

{
  "bitcoreNode": {
    "services": {
      "api": {
      }
    },
    "chains": {
      "DVT": {
        "testnet": {
          "chainSource": "p2p",
          "trustedPeers": [
            {
              "host": "localhost",
              "port": 39039
            }
          ],
          "rpc": {
            "host": "localhost",
            "port": 13339,
            "username": "username",
            "password": "password"
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
}

2. Setup DeVault Node

Example DeVault Mainnet Config

whitelist=127.0.0.1
txindex=0
listen=1
server=1
irc=1
upnp=1

# Make sure port & rpcport matches the
# bitcore.config.json ports

# network prefix
[main]

rpcallowip=127.0.0.1

rpcuser=username
rpcpassword=password

3. Run DeVault node

Example Starting a DeVault Node

# Path to your devault application and path to the config above
/Applications/DeVault-Qt.app/Contents/MacOS/DeVault-Qt -datadir=/Users/username/blockchains/devault/networks/mainnet/

4. Start Bitcore

npm run node
