NOT READY FOR PRODUCTION USE

This is a prototype implementation of a Codius host. Codius hosts run contracts and provide them with APIs that allow for key generation, interaction with outside systems and lots more! Please keep in mind that is an early prototype and it's still missing a lot of functionality for it to be secure, stable and useful.

git clone [email protected]:codius/codius-host.git
cd codius-host
npm install
node app

To interact with your Codius host, checkout the Codius CLI.

First, you need to generate a self-signed certificate. For example, using OpenSSL:

openssl req -x509 -nodes -days 365 -newkey rsa:2048 -keyout server.key -out server.crt

In order to use a local Codius host, you need to redirect requests like abcabc-abcabc-abcabc.example.com to your local host. Unfortunately, /etc/hosts does not allow you to specify wildcard hosts.

On Ubuntu, an easy way to get around this problem is using dnsmasq.

sudo apt-get install dnsmasq
echo 'address=/localcodius/127.0.0.1' | sudo tee --append /etc/dnsmasq.conf
sudo /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart

Afterwards, configure your Codius host to use "localcodius" as its hostname. You'll be able to access local contracts using URLs like https://abcabc-abcabc-abcabc.localcodius:2633.
