RaspiBlitz: install the Electrum Server in Rust (electrs)
Based on https://github.com/romanz/electrs/blob/master/doc/usage.md Some shared experiences here: https://github.com/rootzoll/raspiblitz/issues/123
Tested on the
- Odroid HC1 and XU4 (~18 hours)
- Raspberry Pi 3 B+ (~ two days to build the database from scratch)
Requires 47 Gb diskpace (March 2019).
The install instructions adapted to the RaspiBlitz are in this script, take a look: electrs_install_on_RaspiBlitz.sh
Download this script to your RaspiBlitz, make it executable and run:
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openoms/bitcoin-tutorials/master/electrs/electrs_install_on_RaspiBlitz.sh && sudo chmod +x electrs_install_on_RaspiBlitz.sh && ./electrs_install_on_RaspiBlitz.sh
RaspiBlitz: Set up the Electrs systemd service and connect over SSL
For the SSL certificate to be obtained successfully a dynamic DNS and port forwarding is necessary.
The script sets up the automatic start of electrs, Nginx and certbot.
Assumes that electrs was installed already with the latter script.
Can be used as a secure backend of:
Eclair Mobile Bitcoin and Ligthtning wallet
Electrum wallet
Take a look: electrs_automation_for_Eclair.sh
To download this script, make executable and run:
$ wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/openoms/bitcoin-tutorials/master/electrs/electrs_automation_for_Eclair.sh && sudo chmod +x electrs_automation_for_Eclair.sh && ./electrs_automation_for_Eclair.sh
For the certificate to be obtained successfully a dynamic DNS and port forwarding is necessary.
Forward the port 80 to the IP of your RaspiBlitz for certbot.
Forward the port 50002 to be able to access electrs from the outside of your LAN.
Linux desktop: Install, configure and run the Electrum wallet
The instruction are in the script: electrum_install_config_and_run.sh
