wowlet-backend

Back-end websocket server for wowlet.

Quart web framework, Py3 asyncio
Redis

See also the environment variables WOWLET_COIN_NAME, WOWLET_COIN_SYMBOL, etc. in settings.py.

Tasks

This websocket server has several scheduled recurring tasks:

Fetch latest blockheight from various block explorers
Fetch crypto/fiat exchange rates
Fetch latest Reddit posts
Fetch funding proposals
Check status of RPC nodes (data/nodes.json)

When Wowlet (the wallet application) starts up, it will connect to this websocket server and receive the information listed above which is necessary for normal operation.

See wowlet_backend.tasks.* for the various tasks.

Development

Requires Python 3.7 and higher.

virtualenv -p /usr/bin/python3 venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip install -r requirements.txt

export WOWLET_DEBUG=true
python run.py

Note that run.py is meant as a development server. For production, use asgi.py with something like hypercorn.

Docker

In production you may run via docker;

docker-compose up

Will bind on http://127.0.0.1:1337. Modify docker-compose.yml if necessary.
