Run

To demonstrate the example application, you can open multiple terminals. In each terminal execute something like the following.

export RHIZOME_REQUEST_BIND_PORT=4000
export RHIZOME_PUBLISH_BIND_PORT=4001
export RHIZOME_SEED_PEERS='127.0.0.1:4002, 127.0.0.1:4004'
export RHIZOME_HTTP_API_PORT=3000
export RHIZOME_PEER_ID=peer1
node dist/example-app.js



export RHIZOME_REQUEST_BIND_PORT=4002
export RHIZOME_PUBLISH_BIND_PORT=4003
export RHIZOME_SEED_PEERS='127.0.0.1:4000, 127.0.0.1:4004'
export RHIZOME_PEER_ID=peer2
node dist/example-app.js



export RHIZOME_REQUEST_BIND_PORT=4004
export RHIZOME_PUBLISH_BIND_PORT=4005
export RHIZOME_SEED_PEERS='127.0.0.1:4000, 127.0.0.1:4002'
export RHIZOME_PEER_ID=peer3
node dist/example-app.js

In a separate terminal, you can use curl to interact with an instance.

jq is helpful for formatting the json responses.

curl -s  http://localhost:3000/peers/count | jq
curl -s  http://localhost:3000/peers | jq
curl -s  http://localhost:3000/deltas/count | jq
curl -s  http://localhost:3000/deltas | jq
