azazel/canoed repository overview

⁠Canoed Docker image

Canoed is a backend for the Canoe RaiBlocks wallet. It uses a rai_node and creates a middle layer for mediating RPC calls, holding external state, forwarding blocks over MQTT and various other things Canoe needs to be done on the server. It uses a runing rai_node, Redis, PostgreSQL and VerneMQ.

⁠Nodejs

Canoed was first written in Nim, a modern high performance language that produces small and fast binaries by compiling via C. I love Nim, but we switched to Nodejs because there is no properly working MQTT library in Nim. The code style is fairly plain vanilla.

⁠Docker

This is an automated Docker build based on node:current-stretch.

⁠Running Canoed

It's the standard:

docker run -ti --rm azazel/canoed:latest --help

See source code to find the default canoed.conf JSON configuration.
