# API Reference
See the [Ordinals API Reference](https://docs.hiro.so/ordinals/) for more
information.
# Quick Start
## System Requirements
The Ordinals API has hard dependencies on other systems.
Before you start, you'll need to have access to:
1. An [Ordhook node](https://github.com/hirosystems/ordhook) with a fully
indexed Ordinals database.
1. A local writeable Postgres database for data storage
## Running the API
1. Clone the repo.
1. Create an `.env` file and specify the appropriate values to configure the local
API server, postgres DB and Ordhook node reachability. See
[`env.ts`](https://github.com/hirosystems/ordinals-api/blob/develop/src/env.ts)
for all available configuration options.
1. Build the app (NodeJS v18+ is required)
```
npm install
npm run build
```
1. Start the service
```
npm run start
```
### Run Modes
To better support auto-scaling server configurations, this service supports
three run modes specified by the `RUN_MODE` environment variable:
* `default`: Runs all background jobs and the API server. Use this when you're
running this service only on one instance. This is the default mode.
* `readonly`: Runs only the API server. Use this in an auto-scaled cluster when
you have multiple `readonly` instances and just one `writeonly` instance. This
mode needs a `writeonly` instance to continue populating the DB.
* `writeonly`: Use one of these in an auto-scaled environment so you can
continue consuming new inscriptions. Use in conjunction with multiple
`readonly` instances as explained above.
### Stopping the API
When shutting down, you should always prefer to send the `SIGINT` signal instead
of `SIGKILL` so the service has time to finish any pending background work and
all dependencies are gracefully disconnected.
# Bugs and feature requests
If you encounter a bug or have a feature request, we encourage you to follow the
steps below:
1. **Search for existing issues:** Before submitting a new issue, please search
[existing and closed issues](../../issues) to check if a similar problem or
