It is also required to have the Bulwark daemon running in the background. It is recommended to set this up before beginning to set up the explorer so that it syncs by the time you need it.

Our geniuses here at BulwarkCorp™ have put together a script to do this for you. Just run

bash script/bulwarkd_setup.sh

This will install the latest Bulwark wallet and create a rpc username/password before starting the daemon.

Install

git clone https://github.com/bulwark-crypto/bulwark-explorer.git - copy repo to local folder.

cd blockex - change into project directory.

yarn install - install packages used by the system.

Configure

BlockEx API Configuration

cp config.template.js config.js - setup configuration using template.

Database Configuration

mongo - connect using mongo client.

use blockex - switch to database.

db.createUser( { user: "blockexuser", pwd: "Explorer!1", roles: [ "readWrite" ] } ) - create a user with the values stored in the config.js file from above, meaning they should match.

exit - exit the mongo client.

Crontab

The following automated tasks are currently needed for BlockEx to update but before running the tasks please update the cron script /path/to/blockex/script/cron_block.sh for the block with the local /path/to/node.

yarn run cron:coin - will fetch coin related information like price and supply from coinmarketcap.com.

yarn run cron:masternode - updates the masternodes list in the database with the most recent information clearing old information before.

yarn run cron:peer - gather the list of peers and fetch geographical IP information.

yarn run cron:block - will sync blocks and transactions by storing them in the database.

yarn run cron:rich - generate the rich list.

Note: is is recommended to run all the crons before editing the crontab to have the information right away. Follow the order above, start with cron:coin and end with cron:rich.

To setup the crontab please see run crontab -e to edit the crontab and paste the following lines (edit with your local information):

*/1 * * * * cd /path/to/blockex && ./script/cron_block.sh >> ./tmp/block.log 2>&1
*/1 * * * * cd /path/to/blockex && /path/to/node ./cron/masternode.js >> ./tmp/masternode.log 2>&1
*/1 * * * * cd /path/to/blockex && /path/to/node ./cron/peer.js >> ./tmp/peer.log 2>&1
*/1 * * * * cd /path/to/blockex && /path/to/node ./cron/rich.js >> ./tmp/rich.log 2>&1
*/5 * * * * cd /path/to/blockex && /path/to/node ./cron/coin.js >> ./tmp/coin.log 2>&1
