Running your own Denotarius backend

Installation

Let's first clone the source code and compile the code.

# clone the source code
git clone https://github.com/denotarius/denotarius-api
 
# enter nix-shell if nix is installed
command -v nix-shell
 
# build the code
yarn build

Configuration

The configuration should be located in the config/ folder (opens in a new tab). There are few examples in the original repository, but basically it is:

config/default.json

{
  "server": {
    "port": 3000,
    "debug": false,
    "prometheusMetrics": false
  },
  "db": {
    "connectionString": "postgresql://localhost/postgres",
    "maxConnections": 2,
    "connectionTimeoutMs": 3000,
    "idleTimeoutMs": 10000,
    "ssl": false
  },
  "blockfrost": {
    "apiKey": "testnetD3t6mMoXwpxtRA3xdVZY93XvP0JPdSTiH",
    "ipfsKey": "ipfsqwMez5XOuDzzio6ZQxkpSjApKe4RpAwfi"
  },
  "amountToPayInLovelaces": 100000000,
  "mnemonic": "all all all all all all all all all all all all",
  "metadataLabel": 69
}

Running

After you have the configuration file ready, you can run it as following.

$ yarn start
[17:27:05 UTC] INFO (603432): Server listening at http://0.0.0.0:3010

Docker

We are also hosting the source code as Docker images on Docker Hub (opens in a new tab).

docker run -i -p 3010 \
           -t denotarius/denotarius-api:latest \
           -v $PWD/config:/config
