Reddsight is an open-source Reddcoin blockchain explorer with complete REST and websocket APIs. Reddsight runs in NodeJS, uses AngularJS for the front-end and LevelDB for storage.
Check some screenshots and more details at reddsight's project homepage.
Reddsight project is now split in two repositories. One for the API and for the front-end. This repository is for the front-end, which will install the API as a NPM dependency.
-
Node.js v0.10.x - Download and Install Node.js.
-
NPM - Node.js package manager, should be automatically installed when you get Node.js.
Check the Prerequisites section above before installing.
To install reddsight, clone the main repository:
$ git clone https://github.com/reddcoin-project/reddsight.git && cd reddsight
Install dependencies:
$ npm install
Run the main application:
$ npm start
Then open a browser and go to:
http://localhost:3000
If reddsight reports problems connecting to reddcoind please check the CONFIGURATION section of reddsight-api README. To set the environment variables run something like:
$ INSIGHT_NETWORK=livenet BITCOIND_USER=user BITCOIND_PASS=pass INSIGHT_PUBLIC_PATH=public npm start
Please note that the app will need to sync its internal database with the blockchain state, which may take some time. You can check sync progress from within the web interface. More details about that process on reddsight-api README.
To use Nginx as a reverse proxy for reddsight, use the following base configuration
To run reddsight locally for development mode:
Install bower dependencies:
$ bower install
To compile and minify the web application's assets:
$ grunt compile
There is a convenient Gruntfile.js for automation during editing the code
$ grunt
In case you are developing reddsight and reddsight-api together, you can do the following:
- Install reddsight and reddsight-api on the same path ($IROOT)
$ cd $IROOT/reddsight
$ grunt
in other terminal:
$ cd $IROOT/reddsight-api
$ ln -s ../reddsight/public
$ INSIGHT_PUBLIC_PATH=public node insight.js
INSIGHT_PUBLIC_PATH=reddsight/public grunt
at reddsight-api's home path (edit the path according your setup).
also in the reddsight-api path. (So you will have to grunt process running, one for reddsight and one for reddsight-api).
reddsight use angular-gettext for multilanguage support.
To enable a text to be translated, add the translate directive to html tags. See more details here. Then, run:
grunt compile
This action will create a template.pot file in po/ folder. You can open it with some PO editor (Poedit). Read this guide to learn how to edit/update/import PO files from a generated POT file. PO file will be generated inside po/ folder.
If you make new changes, simply run grunt compile again to generate a new .pot template and the angular javascript js/translations.js. Then (if use Poedit), open .po file and choose update from POT File from Catalog menu.
Finally changes your default language from public/src/js/config
gettextCatalog.currentLanguage = 'es';
This line will take a look at any *.po files inside po/ folder, e.g. po/es.po, po/nl.po. After any change do not forget to run grunt compile.
For more details about the reddsight-api configs and end-point, just go to reddsight-api github repository or read the documentation
