hivemind is an off-chain consensus layer for Steem communities and API server for social features like feeds and follows.
Make sure you have Python 3.5+, Docker and MySQL installed on your local machine.
First, we need to start a MySQL server (in Docker).
make mysql
Then we need to set DATABASE_URL environment variable, for example:
set DATABASE_URL 'mysql://root:root_password@mysql:3306/testdb'
I defined mysql in /etc/hosts such that it links to mysql docker container IP.
Lastly we invoke the ensure-schema command to create MySQL tables.
hive db ensure-schema --yes
We can index the blockchain using cli as well.
hive indexer from-steemd
If we have a .json.lst file containing first X blocks, we can index from that (its much faster).
hive indexer from-file /path/to/blocks.json.lst
hive server dev-server --port 1234
BYO MySQL deployment (ie. Amazon RDS).
Hive is deployed as Docker container (see Dockerfile).
