Bitcore P2P DOGE

NPM Package

The peer-to-peer networking protocol for DOGE.

bitcore-p2p-doge adds Dogecoin protocol support for Bitcore.

See the main bitcore repo for more information.

Getting Started

npm install bitcore-p2p-doge

In order to connect to the Dogecoin network, you’ll need to know the IP address of at least one node of the network, or use Pool to discover peers using a DNS seed.

var Peer = require('bitcore-p2p-doge').Peer;

var peer = new Peer({host: '127.0.0.1'});

peer.on('ready', function() {
  // peer info
  console.log(peer.version, peer.subversion, peer.bestHeight);
});
peer.on('disconnect', function() {
  console.log('connection closed');
});
peer.connect();

Then, you can get information from other peers by using:

// handle events
peer.on('inv', function(message) {
  // message.inventory[]
});
peer.on('tx', function(message) {
  // message.transaction
});

Take a look at this guide on the usage of the Peer class.
