Installation

It's best to run this program inside of a virtual environment, especially if your system's default Python version is not 3.6 or 3.7. The recommended Python version is 3.7.

bloxroute-gateway has C++ extensions that are compiled per operating system, so this PIP package is distributed only as an Source Distribution. During installation, we require distro to determine the operating system version and requests to fetch the right set of C++ extensions from an S3 bucket.

pip install requests==2.22.0 distro
pip install bloxroute-gateway

Running

$ bloxroute-gateway --blockchain-protocol [blockchain-protocol] --blockchain-network [blockchain-network]

If you are running an Ethereum gateway, you will also need to specify the public key of your Ethereum node:

$ bloxroute-gateway [...] --node-public-key [hex-encoded-key]
