Powergate Node.js

This is a fork of Textile + Node Starter Project TypeScript-Node-Starter project

It's a simple project to test Powergate works with Filecoin architecture (Lotus + IPFS) in localnet

Content in this project includes sections for:

• authenticate with different users at the same time
• get informations about a User profile (Id, token and balance)
• send Filecoin between different user addresses
• get informations about Jobs and Deals
• Pin a file a seal deals
• get information about the file status or download it from the web page

Install

npm install

Configure

You need to get OAuth app credentials for Twitter, Google, and GitHub.

Be sure when setting up each of these apps in the services that you set the correct callback url. For deveopment, those will be:

• Twitter -- http://localhost:3000/auth/twitter/callback
• GitHub -- http://localhost:3000/auth/github/callback
• Google -- http://localhost:3000/auth/google/callback

Copy the template .env file found in .env.example to .env. NEVER SHARE OR PUBLISH THIS FILE.

cp .env.example .env

Replace each of the credentials for Twitter, Google, and GitHub that you setup above. If you prefer to remove any of these methods, you can remove them from the login options in views/partials/header.pug.

Build

npm run build
