Setup TXOOD Service
Setup the TXOOD Oracle
Setup the TXOOD service on the TXOHOST
. The TXOOD service wants to
be co-located with a bitcoind server so it can utilize its datastore
directly.
Prerequisites
Ensure that bitcoind-testnet
service is running.
Install nginx
On Debian (and Ubuntu):
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install -y nginx
On Fedora:
sudo dnf update
sudo dnf install -y nginx
On Both:
sudo systemctl start nginx
sudo systemctl enable nginx
Connect to http://localhost:80
and verify you see "Wecome to nginx!"
Build txood
cd ~/lightning-signer
git clone --recurse-submodules https://gitlab.com/lightning-signer/txoo.git && cd txoo
cargo build --release -p txood
sudo cp ~/lightning-signer/txoo/target/release/txood /usr/local/bin/
Configure web directory
sudo mkdir /var/www/html/txoo
sudo chown bitcoin:bitcoin /var/www/html/txoo
Optional - allow directory listing
Apply the following configuration to nginx:
Modify /etc/nginx/sites-available/default
as root:
sudo patch /etc/nginx/sites-available/default - << 'EOF'
--- /etc/nginx/sites-available/default~ 2022-07-26 18:32:17.000000000 -0700
+++ /etc/nginx/sites-available/default 2023-05-01 15:27:35.779068369 -0700

# pass PHP scripts to FastCGI server

EOF
Restart nginx:
sudo systemctl restart nginx
Setup service
sudo -u bitcoin mkdir -p ~bitcoin/.txoo/testnet/
sudo cp ~/lightning-signer/vls-hsmd/vls/contrib/howto/assets/txood-testnet.service /etc/systemd/system/
Edit /etc/systemd/system/txood-testnet.service
, set correct user:pass
:
sudo -u bitcoin grep rpcpassword ~bitcoin/.bitcoin/bitcoin.conf
sudo vi /etc/systemd/system/txood-testnet.service
Install log rotation config file (edit to suit preferences):
sudo cp ~/lightning-signer/vls-hsmd/vls/contrib/howto/assets/txood-testnet.logrotate /etc/logrotate.d/txood-testnet
If your bitcoind-testnet
is caught up you can enable txood
otherwise come back when it finishes syncing:
sudo -u bitcoin bitcoin-cli --testnet getblockchaininfo
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
sudo systemctl enable txood-testnet
sudo systemctl start txood-testnet
systemctl status txood-testnet
journalctl -u txood-testnet
Setup web sync
On Fedora:
sudo dnf install cronie cronie-anacron
sudo cp ~/lightning-signer/txoo/contrib/{sync-txoo-local,render-txoo} /usr/local/bin/
sudo crontab -u bitcoin -e
* * * * * /usr/local/bin/sync-txoo-local
