Getting started

Supported OS: Ubuntu 16.04

Supported Ethereum backend nodes: Parity, Geth (untested)

1. Setup a nodejs & npm environment
2. Install the latest version of the Parity Ethereum client
3. Start parity using the following options: parity --warp
4. Clone this repository to your local machine: git clone https://github.com/gobitfly/erc20-exporter
5. Install all dependencies: npm install
6. Rename config.js.example into config.js and adjust the file to your local environment & token
7. Start the explorer: npm start
8. Browse to http://localhost:3000

Please note that for large tokens the initial data export can take up to 30 minutes. Once completed it is recommended to change the exportStartBlock parameter in the config file to a block number that is around 30.000 blocks behind the current tip of the chain and restart the exporter.
