* Ubuntu 18.04

* above v0.17 (`getnetworkinfo` version >= 170000)
* bitcoin mainnet / testnet / regtest

* not support bitcoin.conf section format

## Install

```bash
sudo apt install -y git autoconf pkg-config build-essential libtool python3 wget jq bc

cd ptarmigan
make full

# takes a lot of time...
```

[NOTE and details](docs/INSTALL.md)

## Starting `bitcoind`

At first, start `bitcoind`.
`ptarmd` use bitcoind JSON-RPC, so need `rpcuser` and `rpcpassword`.

* bitcoin.conf sample

```text
rpcuser=bitcoinuser
rpcpassword=bitcoinpassword
server=1
txindex=1
testnet=1
```

```bash
bitcoind -daemon

# check started chain
bitcoin-cli getblockchaininfo | jq -e '.chain'
```

## Starting `ptarmd`

For starting `ptarmd`, you should make new node as follows.

```bash
cd ptarmigan/install
./new_nodedir.sh [NODENAME]
cd [NODENAME]

# start ptarmigan daemon
# CHAIN=mainnet, testnet or regtest
../ptarmd --network=testnet
```

## How to use

* [How to use](docs/howtouse.md)
* [How to use REST API](docs/howtouse_rest_api.md)

Note: `ptarmigan` has interfaces of CLI, JSON-RPC and REST API.
But CLI and JSON-RPC will change in the near future.
Try the newer REST API interface.
