Planet Express

WIP branch for ipfs pubsub version

Extra Requirements

You need to have go-ipfs binary built from the IPFS pubsub branch https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/tree/feat/floodsub. You need to have the daemon running before starting Planet Express (at port 5001).

Run

Currently only the Electron app works.

Requirements

Node.js v6.x.x
npm v3.x.x
g++, gcc, make (for building native modules)
python 2 (for building, some native modules need it, node-fibers perhaps?)
