stratumn-agent

Stratumn agent for NodeJS [ALPHA - incompatible with production]

This NodeJS module exposes functions to create Stratumn agents using Javascript.

Creating an HTTP server for an agent

var express = require('express');
var Agent = require('stratumn-agent');

// Load actions.
// Assumes your actions are in ./lib/actions.
var actions = require('./lib/actions');

// Create an HTTP store client to save segments.
// Assumes an HTTP store server is available on env.STRATUMN_STORE_URL or http://store:5000.
var storeHttpClient = Agent.storeHttpClient(process.env.STRATUMN_STORE_URL || 'http://store:5000');

// Create an agent from the actions and the store client.
var agent = Agent.create(actions, storeHttpClient, { agentUrl: 'http://localhost:3000' });

// Creates an HTTP server for the agent with CORS enabled.
var agentHttpServer = Agent.httpServer(agent, { cors: {} });

// Create the Express server.
var app = express();

app.disable('x-powered-by');

// Mount agent on the root path of the server.
app.use('/', agentHttpServer);

// Start the server.
app.listen(3000, function() {
  console.log('Listening on :' + this.address().port);
});
