Bitcore P2P

The peer-to-peer networking protocol for DigiByte.

digibyte-js-p2p adds DigiByte protocol support for digibyte-js.

Getting Started

npm install digibyte-js-p2p

In order to connect to the DigiByte network, you'll need to know the IP address of at least one node of the network, or use Pool to discover peers using a DNS seed.

var Peer = require('digibyte-js-p2p').Peer;

var peer = new Peer({host: '127.0.0.1'});

peer.on('ready', function() {
  // peer info
  console.log(peer.version, peer.subversion, peer.bestHeight);
});
peer.on('disconnect', function() {
  console.log('connection closed');
});
peer.connect();

Then, you can get information from other peers by using:

// handle events
peer.on('inv', function(message) {
  // message.inventory[]
});
peer.on('tx', function(message) {
  // message.transaction
});

Take a look at this guide on the usage of the Peer class.
