Environment Variables

Create a .env file, copy in the default values from .env.sample. Read this file for information about how to change configuration settings to suit your needs.

By default, it assumes that you're running a local node and local network. To do this, use nearup or rainbow-bridge-cli

Now you can add an ACCOUNT_CREATOR_KEY to your .env. Running a local NEAR network created a ~/.near/localnet/node0/validator_key.json file for you. Copy the contents of this file and paste them as a single line, with NO whitespace, for the ACCOUNT_CREATOR_KEY value in your .env. For example:

ACCOUNT_CREATOR_KEY={"account_id":"node0","public_key":"...","secret_key":"..."}

Run server with local DynamoDB

yarn start

This starts a local DynamoDB instance on port 7877 which is used when NODE_ENV=development to facilitate local testing. This instance is persisted to a .db file at the project root.

Create account (works only on test networks)

curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -XPOST http://0.0.0.0:3000/account --data '{"newAccountId": "nosuchuseryet", "newAccountPublicKey": "22skMptHjFWNyuEWY22ftn2AbLPSYpmYwGJRGwpNHbTV"}

Lookup account by public key

curl -XGET http://0.0.0.0:3000/publicKey/ed25519:EKveJ28ocxfHXQEfH42AowPL7HgXHkKp3kmMoSXNjiRF/accounts
curl -XGET https://helper.mainnet.near.org/publicKey/ed25519:EKveJ28ocxfHXQEfH42AowPL7HgXHkKp3kmMoSXNjiRF/accounts

Running tests

Ensure NEAR localnet is running

As mentioned in the "Environment Variables" section above, make sure you are running a local blockchain

Run yarn test

This will run the tests using mocha. Assertions are written using chai with chai-as-promised for async assertions. Spies and fake timers provided with sinon.
