Configuration

Create a .env file with your bitcoind and lnd configuration. See the .env_sample file for all configuration options.

Please note that you will also need to install Redis.

If you need a easy option to run a simple bitcoind & lnd client, Polar makes that pretty easy.

You will need to have Python in version 3 installed and have the .env see Configuration configured correctly first.

To install the dependencies, run

python -m pip install -r requirements.txt on Linux / macOS or

py -m pip install -r requirements.txt on Windows.

After that, you can run the application with

python -m uvicorn main:app --reload on Linux / macOS or

py -m uvicorn main:app --reload on Windows.
