Insight v0.5 - How to
- Install local dashcore version.
- Create dash.conf file in .dashcore with data allowing to be requested by RPC (server=1, rpcport,... - You can use exemple [REF1] below)
- Start dashd by simply call for ./bin/dashd
- Then in another folder (insight?) do a git clone https://github.com/dashevo/bitcore-node-dash -b skip-dash-download
- cd bitcore-node-dash
- npm install
- npm install insight-api-dash --S
- npm install insight-ui-dash --S
- Create a bitcore-node-dash conf file (touch bitcore-node-dash.json) that would the network, port, services and connect data (You can use exemple [REF2] below).
- chmod +x bin/bitcore-node-dash
- ./bin/bitcore-node-dash start
[REF1] dash.conf

rpcport=9998

[REF2] bitcore-node-dash.json
{
"network": "livenet",
"port": 3001,
"services": [
"bitcoind",
"insight-api-dash",
"insight-ui-dash",
"web"
],
"servicesConfig": {
"bitcoind": {
"connect": [{
"rpchost": "127.0.0.1",
"rpcport": 9998,
"rpcuser": "dash",
"rpcpassword": "local321",
"zmqpubrawtx": "tcp://127.0.0.1:28332"
}]
}
}
}
Nota :
Allowing rpc from outside can be not what you want. Instead you will prefer to set :
whitelist=127.0.0.1
rpcallowip=127.0.0.1
Troubles :
- If you do not see any blocks (waiting for blocks... in insight-ui), chance are that you will need to reindex dashd.
- If you can't npm install bitcore-node-dash on Windows, edit package.json and remove preinstall line.

Hi guys,
I have got the error from the step installing dashcore local.

  • I used this command: npm install -g bitcore-dash
    ... and got an error like this: sh: 1:

./scripts/download: Permission denied

Hi, I am able to run insight-api and insight-ui. But I have 2 questions:

  1. How to install & integrate dash-payment-processor?
    • I have tried npm install dash-payment-processor --S
    • The service cannot be accessed using ipaddress:3001/dash-payment-processor/createReceiver
    • It seems insight-api take over (refer picture below).
  2. How to run bitcore-node-dash start as background service? Because every time SSH version ended/expired, the services stopped.
