Welcome to Crypto Address Tracker, the open source web application for tracking blockchain addresses!
As a visitor, you will be able to see the current information associated with your favorite crypto address of choice. Information like a list of crypto currencies such address owns will be available for query 24/7.
As our registered user, you will have exclusive access to our analytics and tracking service, in addition to query your selected crypto address. For the tracking service, we will continuously monitor address behavior and store relevant information to our database, so that later you can generate meaningful reports from them.
Our application is built with frontend framework React.js and backend framework Flask using Python and Javascript. Our repository is a monolithic codebase that stores both our frontend and backend code. Before start, please make sure you already have our project cloned to your local environment.
For frontend, please make sure you have npm installed, our package manager for React.js.
cd blockchain-tracker-frontend/
npm install
npm start
For backend, please make sure you have Anaconda installed, it helps us install some dependencies needed.
cd backend
nohup python3 -u flask_api.py &
cd user_info
export FLASK_APP=user_info_flask
flask init-db
flask run --host 0.0.0.0
Alternatively, you can install the dependency by manually install the pip dependencies:
pip install -r requrements.txt
For database, we are using embedded database SQLite, you need to run some scripts to start your local server.
cd user_info/user_info_flask
//find a file named schema.sql
//create a database named USER_INFO_DB and run the script above
Our frontend application is deployed using AWS Amplify, any new changes made to our blockchain-tracker-frontend repository will trigger CI/CD process and re-deploy our application.
Our backend application is deployed using AWS EC2, with Travis CI setup for continuous integration.
