Realtime Bitcoin transaction visualizer written in HTML/Javascript. See and hear new transactions and blocks as they propagate through the Bitcoin Network.
The project is built and ready-to-go. If you change any of the javascript, you will need to re-build the bitlisten.min.js file using Grunt. If you haven't used Grunt before, here is a short tutorial:
-
Install grunt-cli using
sudo npm install -g grunt-cli. -
Cd into the project directory and run
npm installto install the proper Grunt version and dependencies for this project. -
Run
gruntto build BitListen. Alternatively, rungrunt watchto build BitListen, host it at http://localhost:8000, and watch for and rebuild changes in the source files.
The compiled/minified script will be output to bitlisten.min.js.
BitListen uses these libraries:
- Howler.js by James Simpson
- Reconnecting-Websocket by Joe Walnes
