Safex Blockchain Explorer

This is the Safex blockchain explorer. This is a fork of Onion Monero Blockchain Explorer

Safex Blockchain Explorer features

The key features of the Safex Blockchain Explorer are:

• no cookies, no web analytics trackers, no images,
• by default no JavaScript, but can be enabled for client side decoding and proving transactions,
• open sourced,
• made fully in C++,
• showing encrypted payments ID,
• showing ring signatures,
• showing transaction extra field,
• showing public components of Safex addresses,
• decoding which outputs and mixins belong to the given Safex address and viewkey,
• can prove that you send Safex cash to someone,
• detailed information about ring members, such as, their age, timescale and their ring sizes,
• showing number of amount output indices,
• support Safex testnet and stagenet networks,
• tx checker and pusher for online pushing of transactions,
• estimate possible spendings based on address and viewkey,
• can provide total amount of all miner fees,
• decoding encrypted payment id,
• decoding outputs and proving txs sent to sub-address.

Compilation on Ubuntu 18.04

Compile latest Safex development version

Download and compile recent safexcore into your home folder:

# first install safex dependecines
sudo apt update

sudo apt install git build-essential cmake libboost-all-dev miniupnpc libunbound-dev graphviz doxygen libunwind8-dev pkg-config libssl-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libgtest-dev libreadline-dev libzmq3-dev libsodium-dev libpcsclite-dev

# go to home folder
cd ~

git clone --recursive https://github.com/safex/safexcore

cd safeccore/

# checkout last safex version
git checkout master

make

Compile and run the explorer

Once the Safex is compiles, the explorer can be downloaded and compiled as follows:

cd ~

# download the source code
git clone https://github.com/safex/safex-blockchain-explorer.git

# enter the downloaded sourced code folder
cd safex-blockchain-explorer

# make a build folder and enter it
mkdir build && cd build

# create the makefile
cmake ..

# altearnatively can use: cmake -DSAFEX_DIR=/path/to/safexcore_folder ..
#
# also can build with ASAN (sanitizers), for example
# cmake -DSANITIZE_ADDRESS=On ..

# compile
make

To run it:

./safex-explorer

By default it will look for blockchain in its default location i.e., ~/.safex/lmdb. You can use -b option if its in different location.

For example:

./safex-explorer -b /home/user/non-defult-safex-location/lmdb/

Example output:

Example usage, defined as bash aliases.

# for mainnet explorer
alias xmrblocksmainnet='~/safex-blockchain-explorer/build/safex-explorer --port 8081 --testnet-url "http://127.0.0.1:8082" --enable-pusher --enable-emission-monitor'

# for testnet explorer
alias xmrblockstestnet='~/safex-blockchain-explorer/build/safex-explorer -t --port 8082 --mainnet-url "http://127.0.0.1:8081" --enable-pusher --enable-emission-monitor'

These are aliases similar to those used for http://127.0.0.1:8081/ and http://127.0.0.1:8082/, respectively.
