PiNode EXTREME!

A lightweight Bitcoin block explorer for an indexed Raspberry Pi full node or other lightweight SBC.

PiNode EXTREME

Requirements

  • A fully indexed bitcoin node running bitcoind and JSON-RPC (txindex=1)
  • BitcoinGQL should also be running on the server. This service provides the data API.

Installation

There are two included methods for running PiNode, direct NodeJS or as a Docker container. Before beginning, ensure that BitcoinGQL is properly configured and running.

Direct NodeJS Server

Node v14+ is supported. Node Version Manager is recommended. From the repository root directory, perform the following actions:

  1. npm ci
  2. npm run build
  3. npm run start

The HTTP server should now be listening on port 8000. You should be able to browse to http://localhost:8000 to see the dashboard.

Docker Container

Docker v20.10+ is supported. From the repository root directory, perform the following actions:

  1. docker build . -t pinode-extreme
  2. docker run --network host pinode-extreme

The HTTP server should now be listening on the host machine's port 8000. You should be able to browse to http://localhost:8000 to see the dashboard.

Disclaimer

This was recently ported over from a very old Apache/jQuery version to now use more modern technologies and to ease further development. It is a work in progress. Please open an issue if you discover any bugs.
