. Voila!
Note: You can start a second node on your computer - make sure to use a different port (use the -p/--port
option) and (recommended) a different wallet address (use the -n/--name
option). Example:
$ tulipmania -p 5678 -n Vincent
Happy mining!
Local Development Setup¶ ↑
For local development - clone or download (and unzip) the tulipmania code repo. Next install all dependencies using bundler with a Gemfile e.g.:
# Gemfile source "https://rubygems.org" gem 'sinatra' gem 'sass' gem 'blockchain-lite'
run
$ bundle ## will use the Gemfile (see above)
and now you're ready to run your own tulipmania server node. Use the {config.ru
} script for rack:
# config.ru $LOAD_PATH << './lib' require 'tulipmania' run Tulipmania::Service
and startup the tulip exchange machinery using rackup - the rack command line tool:
$ rackup ## will use the config.ru - rackup configuration script (see above).
