- COMPILING VERSUS REFRESHING *
We include two files in the /lib directory that are useful for development. The difference is that "compile" will wipe-out the database and reset your server "options" file (i.e. resetting the wallet). The "refresh" script simply updates the javascript file that is produced for browsers without deleting any information on the server.
./compile (to purge all blockchain data) ./refresh (to preserve blockchain data)
- CONFIGURATION OPTIONS *
The configuration settings for your server will be saved in the options file in the /lib directory. This file will also be used as your wallet storing transaction inputs and outputs.
If you are setting up a new server, the simplest options file is:
{ "server":{"host":"localhost","port":12101,"publickey":""} }
This will run a server on your machine on port 12101. For more complex options, you can edit the options.conf file to update the defaults.
- RUNNING PROCLUS *
Please see the INSTALL file for instructions on getting Proclus.g running. Once the program is executing, you can connect to Proclus.g through your browser:
If you are interested in developing the application, you can find the default start page for the main server in the source code directory at:
lib/proclus/web/index.html
Most of the user-driven functionality is coded in optional modules that create web applications. Our blockchain explorer, for instance, is just a regular Proclus.g application module (info). The file that controls which modules are loaded is:
lib/modules/mods.js
The modules themselves are contained in sub-directories within that directory. A good way to get familiar with Proclus.g (and find out how it works under the hood) is to look at these modules. Existing apps can act as simple tutorials on how to code your own applications.
