Indexd Server

A bitcoind transaction server.

Indexes

This server provides an API for unspent transaction outputs for bitcoin addresses.

Configuration

.env file

Copy .env-example to .env and modify the .env file as needed. To use a custom configuration file, you can specify a file path by setting the CONFIG_FILE environment variable to the location of your environment config path.

bitcoin.conf configuration

Your bitcoin server must have ZMQ enabled. Then configure bitcoin.conf to publish tx and block hashes, like so:

zmqpubhashtx=tcp://127.0.0.1:38832
zmqpubhashblock=tcp://127.0.0.1:38832

The settings in bitcoin.conf are the "server" settings for the ZMQ publisher. The ZMQ variable in the .env file is the "client" to subscribe to the messages published by bitcoin.

Install

Install the node dependencies:

npm install

Run the server

The recommended way to run the server is with forever.

npm -g install forever
forever index.js

The transactions API also accepts a verbose query parameter like this:
