Application Server

App server

The server project is the aggregation of these three sub projects

1. Wallet
2. Chain
3. Node

The server project provides a away to access information from these three projects via a JSON RPC.

Building the server

Java binary

You can build the server with the sbt native packager. The native packager offers numerous ways to package the project.

In this example we are going to use stage which will produce bash scripts we can easily execute. You can stage the server with the following command.

sbt appServer/universal:stage

This will produce a script to execute bitcoin-s which you can start with

./app/server/target/universal/stage/bin/bitcoin-s-server

Docker

The oracle server also has docker support. You can build a docker image with the following commands

Using an existing docker image

We publish docker images on every PR that is merged to bitcoin-s.

You can find the docker repo for the app server here

Building a docker image

sbt "appServer/docker:stage"

This will build a Dockerfile that is located in app/server/target/docker/stage

You can now build the docker image with

docker build app/server/target/docker/stage/ -t bitcoinscala/bitcoin-s-server:latest

Finally, let's run the image! It's important that you correctly configure port forwarding with the docker container so you can interact with the running container with bitcoin-s-cli or curl. By default, our oracle server listens for requests on port 9999. By default, the server listens for websocket connections on port 19999 at /events.

This means we need to forward requests on the host machine to the docker container correctly.

This can be done with the following command

docker run -d -p 9999:9999 -p 19999:19999 -e BITCOIN_S_SERVER_RPC_PASSWORD='topsecret' bitcoinscala/bitcoin-s-server:latest

Now you can send requests with bitcoin-s-cli or curl. Here is an example with bitcoin-s-cli

./bitcoin-s-cli getblockcount --password topsecret
10000

For more information on build configuration options with sbt please see the sbt native packager docs

Configuration

Java binary configuration

If you would like to pass in a custom datadir for your server, you can do

./app/server/target/universal/stage/bin/bitcoin-s-server --datadir /path/to/datadir/

To use a config file that is not the bitcoin-s.conf file in your datadir, you can do

./app/server/target/universal/stage/bin/bitcoin-s-server --conf /path/to/file.conf

You can also pass in a custom rpcport to bind to

./app/server/target/universal/stage/bin/bitcoin-s-server --rpcport 12345

Or set a custom wsport to bind to

./app/server/target/universal/stage/bin/bitcoin-s-server --wsport 54321

For more information on configuring the server please see our configuration document

For more information on how to use our built in cli to interact with the server please see /docs/1.9.5/applications/cli

Docker configuration

In this example, we are using the latest docker image published to our docker hub which is referenced by bitcoinscala/bitcoin-s-server:latest

You can use bitcoin-s with docker volumes. You can also pass in a custom configuration at container runtime.

Using a docker volume

docker volume create bitcoin-s
docker run -p 9999:9999 -p 19999:19999 \
--mount source=bitcoin-s,target=/home/bitcoin-s/ bitcoinscala/bitcoin-s-server:latest

Now you can re-use this volume across container runs. It will keep the same oracle database and seeds directory located at /home/bitcoin-s/.bitcoin-s/seeds in the volume.

Using a custom bitcoin-s configuration with docker

You can also specify a custom bitcoin-s configuration at container runtime. You can mount the configuration file on the docker container and that configuration will be used in the docker container runtime rather than the default one we provide here

You can do this with the following command

docker run -p 9999:9999 -p 19999:19999 \
--mount type=bind,source=/my/new/config/,target=/home/bitcoin-s/.bitcoin-s/ \
bitcoinscala/bitcoin-s-server:latest --conf /home/bitcoin-s/.bitcoin-s/bitcoin-s.conf

Note: If you adjust the bitcoin-s.server.rpcport setting you will need to adjust the -p 9999:9999 port mapping on the docker container to adjust for this.

Websocket endpoints

Bitcoin-s offers websocket endpoints. By default, the endpoint is ws://localhost:1999/events

You can configure where how the endpoints are configured inside your bitcoin-s.conf

bitcoin-s.server.wsbind=localhost
bitcoin-s.server.wsport=19999

These events are implemented using our internal callback mechanism.

An example event that is defined is our blockprocess event. Everytime our wallet processes a block, our wallet will notify you via websockets. Here is an example payload

The current types of events defined are

1. txprocessed - when the wallet processes a transaction. Every transaction in a block will get relayed currently
2. reservedutxos - when the wallet reserves OR unreserves utxos
3. newaddress - when the wallet generates a new address
4. txbroadcast - when the wallet broadcasts a tx
5. blockprocessed - when the wallet processes a block
