To start a development server with live babel/browserify transpilation, run:
$ git clone https://github.com/Blockstream/esplora && cd esplora
$ npm install
$ export API_URL=http://localhost:3000/ # or https://blockstream.info/api/ if you don't have a local API server
# (see more config options below)
$ npm run dev-server
The server will be available at http://localhost:5000/
To build the static assets directory for production deployment, set config options (see below)
and run $ npm run dist
. The files will be created under dist/
.
Because Esplora is a single-page app, the HTTP server needs to be configured to serve the index.html
file in reply to missing pages.
See contrib/nginx.conf.in
for example nginx configuration (TL;DR: try_files $uri /index.html
).
To start a pre-rendering server that generates static HTML replies suitable for noscript users, run:
# (clone, cd, "npm install" and configure as above)
$ export STATIC_ROOT=http://localhost:5000/ # for loading CSS, images and fonts
$ npm run prerender-server
The server will be available at http://localhost:5001/
All options are optional.
