DUCATUS P2P

ducatus-core-p2p-rev adds Litecoin protocol support for Bitcore.

See the main litecore repo for more information.

Getting Started

npm install @ducatus/ducatus-core-p2p-rev

In order to connect to the Ducatus network, you'll need to know the IP address of at least one node of the network, or use Pool to discover peers using a DNS seed.

var Peer = require('@ducatus/ducatus-core-p2p-rev').Peer;

var peer = new Peer({host: '127.0.0.1'});

peer.on('ready', function() {
  // peer info
  console.log(peer.version, peer.subversion, peer.bestHeight);
});
peer.on('disconnect', function() {
  console.log('connection closed');
});
peer.connect();

Then, you can get information from other peers by using:

// handle events
peer.on('inv', function(message) {
  // message.inventory[]
});
peer.on('tx', function(message) {
  // message.transaction
});
