resulting in:

Usage: shilling [options]

  Wallet options:
    -n, --name=NAME                  Address name (default: Theresa)

  Server (node) options:
    -o, --host HOST                  listen on HOST (default: 0.0.0.0)
    -p, --port PORT                  use PORT (default: 4567)
    -h, --help                       Prints this help

To start a new (network) node using the default wallet address (that is, Theresa) and the default server host and port settings use:

$ shilling

Stand back ten feets :-) while starting up the machinery. Ready to print (mine) shillings on the blockchain? In your browser open up the page e.g. http://localhost:4567. Voila!

Note: You can start a second node on your computer - make sure to use a different port (use the -p/--port option) and (recommended) a different wallet address (use the -n/--name option). Example:

$ shilling -p 5678 -n Franz

Happy mining!

Local Development Setup

For local development - clone or download (and unzip) the shilling.tools code repo. Next install all dependencies using bundler with a Gemfile e.g.:

# Gemfile

source "https://rubygems.org"

gem 'sinatra'
gem 'sass'
gem 'blockchain-lite'
gem 'ledger-lite'

run

$ bundle       ## will use the Gemfile (see above)

and now you're ready to run your own shilling server node. Use the config.ru script for rack:

# config.ru

$LOAD_PATH << './lib'

require 'shilling'

run Shilling::Service

and startup the money printing machine using rackup - the rack command line tool:

$ rackup       ## will use the config.ru - rackup configuration script (see above).

In your browser open up the page e.g. http://localhost:9292. Voila! Happy mining!
