Connect local node to frontend hosted on a server online

Sun, 02 Jun 2019 22:29:28 +0000

I was working running a multichain node and a frontend locally (making request to localhost). Now I want to put the frontend hosted in AWS or another hosting provider, but I don't know, what i've to do to communicate mi multichain node to the online frontend. The idea is communicate the chain node and frontend assuming that aren't neccesary in the same network.
Can you give me advice or information on how to approach this challenge?

Web Application with Multichain

Sat, 19 Jan 2019 23:53:59 +0000

I'm trying to build a Web Application that uses Multichain in the background. In a real BlockChain based application, the user is supposed to sign the transaction by his/her private key. How would that happen in case of Web application. Should there be a node on the machine where the browser is running or should the browser have the capability to sign the transaction? I'm not completely understanding how multichain can be used in a WebApplications where users are spread across the world and still be able to sign the transactions. Of course, the registration needs to happen first. Any clues on how this can be done without centralizing the private keys and still use the web browsers?

Thanks

how to capture multichain command output ?

Mon, 26 Nov 2018 17:45:49 +0000

I want to know if there is a way we can use the output of any Multichain API command with our application.

For instance, if the publish API command results in a hexadecimal output in the Linux terminal, how would our application capture/read that output ?

Any help is most appreciated !

Is mining required on non coin based application

Fri, 27 Oct 2017 07:08:48 +0000

Hi Multichain Devs,

In my case an application will have one wallet and many addresses, i.e each address is an user. Here do I have to give permission to some address to mine? When is mining is required.

NOTE: The application doesn't deal with any coins.

Thanks in advance.

Build multichain-based blockchain project

Thu, 26 Oct 2017 12:44:34 +0000

What is the best way to build multichain-based blockchain project where miners have to apply a specif set of rules (different than bitcoin rules) and the created blockchain will be used to store information that will be farther used by clients nodes?

Is it just about creating script files, to setup the parameters of the blockchain in param.dat file or more than that?

What is the best way to create a local wallet/node similar to Bitcoin Core using Multichain

Fri, 01 Sep 2017 07:38:57 +0000

Hello!

I have a private multichain blockchain. I would like to create a stand-alone desktop wallet that can communicate with a locally installed node, the same way the Bitcoin Core wallet works (you install the wallet, the blockchain is downloaded locally, and the GUI is launched, the GUI communicates with the node installed on your local machine) Ideally I would like to create executables (.exe) for windows/linux/mac (.dmg), and install the multichain blockchain locally, and then launch my web-wallet in a desktop-app format using electron.

My problem is creating local nodes for each desktop wallet. Is there a recommended way of accomplishing this? Is there a best way to create a local multichain node wallet that runs and deploys automatically just as a bitcoin core wallet and blockchain would? How would one go about accomplishing this?

Thanks

Note: This multichain blockchain is already created, and was not built with bitcoin compatibility as explained in the multichain docs. This is a 100% multichain configured blockchain

How to create applications on Multichain ?

Wed, 21 Jun 2017 11:36:01 +0000

Hi

Im an absolute newbie to Multichain. I actually have a Final Year Project (i.e Thesis) on BlockChains.

I have been asked by my project advisor to create an application on the Multichain using Java or Python

i am a bit confused , as i have never really created an application on a blockchain

so , can someone help me out on how to create application on Multichain using Python ?

P.S : the scope of what an app could be is quite flexible , it could be anything like a voting application or any other thing. i just desperately need something to present to my advisor.
