displaynode

node monitoring and blockchain explorer

Before you start:

This is a node.js application to monitor Jörmungandr testnet data. It can be used either on the same machine the Jörmungandr-node is running, or on every remote server in connection with a querynode instance. This is useful if you want to monitor your node locally, with Jörmungandr on a server somewhere, or if host the displaynode somewhere else, e.g. on a webserver.

Set up your displaynode instance

# Clone the repo locally, or to a webserver
git clone https://github.com/standardize-network/displaynode.git

# install dependencies
cd displaynode
npm install

Standalone mode:

Displaynode is standalone by default, you only need to check wether youre Rest api is available on the default port 3101 and install it on the same machine as the Jörmungandr-node.

If your Rest api Port is different, change it in nuxt.config.js file, for localapi

...
proxy: {
  '/api/': { target: 'http://QUERYNODE-IP:QUERYNODE-PORT', pathRewrite: {'^/api/': ''} },
  '/localapi/': { target: 'http://127.0.0.1:3101', pathRewrite: {'^/localapi/': ''} },
},
...

# starting your server
npm run dev

# or for productive use
npm run build && npm run start

Remote mode:

If you want displaynode on a seperate machine, you have to install querynode on the Jörmungandr-node machine and connect it to displaynode. The settings to switch between modes can be found in /store/state.js in an object that looks like this:

settings: {
  refreshInterval: 20,
  refreshEnabled: true,
  nodeMonitorEnabled: true,
  explorerEnabled: true,
  standalone: true
},

Just set standalone to false and specify your querynode public IP like follows:

# specify your QUERYNODE public IP and PORT in the `nuxt.config.js` file
nano nuxt.config.js

# in this object:
proxy: {
  '/api/': { target: 'http://QUERYNODE-IP:QUERYNODE-PORT', pathRewrite: {'^/api/': ''} },
  '/localapi/': { target: 'http://127.0.0.1:3101', pathRewrite: {'^/localapi/': ''} },
},

# starting your server
npm run dev

# or for productive use
npm run build && npm run start

You can find your displaynode: http://localhost:8080, or just change localhost to your public IP in package.json file, when you're accessing it remote.
