ReddCoin API LIB that exposes reddcoind JSON-RPC Methods through a simply structured URL driven API.

Install

You can include the reddcoin-node-api easily in your node.js project.

npm install reddcoin-node-api

Example Use

You can use `reddcoin-node-api' to expose the reddcoind JSON-RPC through a easy to work with URL Structure/

Node (API Instances)

var rddapi = require('reddcoin-node-api'),
express = require('express'),
app = express();
 
// Username and Password can be set in `~/.reddcoin/reddcoin.conf`
var rddacc = {
  host: 'localhost',
  port: 45443,
  user: 'reddcoinrpc',
  pass: 'rddcoinpass'
};
 
var path = '/api';
 
rddapi.setWalletDetails(rddacc);
rddapi.setAccess('default-safe');
app.use(path, rddapi.app); 
 
app.listen(5000);

Using the API Instance

You can call methods from the reddcoind JSON-RPC API using a simple URL Structure.

  http://localhost:5000/PATH/METHOD
  

Calling the API Without Parameters

  http://localhost:5000/api/getinfo

Would result in a response exactly the same as if were called by the JSON-RPC its self.

{
  "version": 1,
  "protocolversion": 1,
  "walletversion": 1,
  "balance": 1,
  "blocks": 112345,
  "timeoffset": -2,
  "connections": 8,
  "proxy": "",
  "testnet": false,
  "keypoololdest": 1368414896,
  "keypoolsize": 101,
  "paytxfee": 0.0001,
  "unlocked_until": 0,
  "errors": ""
}

Calling the API With Parameters

Sometimes you may need to send parameters with your request this can be done in the query string like in the following example call to getTransaction The parameters match up with those of the reddcoind JSON-RPC documentation.

http://localhost:5000/api/gettransaction?txid=TXID

Access Control

The only type restricts method calls to only those in the methods object.

  rddapi.setAccess('only', ['getinfo']);

Restricting access to certian methods can be done using the restrict type.

  rddapi.setAccess('restrict', ['dumpprivkey', 'sendmany']);

Restrict reddcoin-node-api to only call read-only methods.

  rddapi.setAccess('read-only');
