attest-chain

Dependencies

The major package requirements for this project (That I'm aware of) are:

• Node.js
  • https://www.npmjs.com/get-npm
• geth
  • https://ethereum.github.io/go-ethereum/install/
• solc
  • http://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/develop/installing-solidity.html

Once those are installed you'll need to run npm install to pull down the Node.js dependencies, and from there you can go a number of different ways. If you'd like to avoid buying/mining ethereum you can create a local test blockchain with either make local-test-chain or npm run-script createLocalTestChain otherwise you can choose to configure things yourself to use the slow, expensive blockchain.

Additionally, depending on whether your command line responds to solc or solcjs (from an npm install), modify the Makefile. You should 'make clean' and then 'make abi.json' before running your code.

Running

To start the server you can either execute startServer.sh or npm start, and after that you should have a real live server running in console mode for your development pleasure.

Testing

run node test.js to run the test script
