Porting Bitcore (insight-api and bitcore node) to Feathercoin

Cookieboy

Hey Team, hope this post find everyone well. Are there any developers or users that want to help take on the task of porting bitcore and insight-api to feathercoin?

https://github.com/bitpay/insight-api
https://github.com/bitpay/bitcore-node

Specifically the reason for doing this, is if we have a working insight-api that is specific to Feathercoin, and it is maintained by our community, with simple build instructions, we can reach out to Trezor and ask to be included in their hardware wallet. Giving the benefit of a hardware wallet to Feathercoin hodlers ;) . If there is anyone willing to help in this endever, post away, and we can chat about options on making it a reality.

We could start by forking the litecoin implementation and see how far we can get…

As far as I know @AcidD has a working insight-api already

Hey Guys.

So my repo is here:
https://github.com/aciddude/fsight-api/tree/fsight-master which is just the insight-api but an older version.

3 years ago… @Bushstar I think ported these
https://github.com/Bushstar/featherinsight/
https://github.com/Bushstar/feathercore/
https://github.com/Bushstar/feather-api/

I’m not sure if they are working and I’m not sure on the version numbers etc.

Bush and I have discussed this very briefly.

If someone has some basic instructions at a high level on what to do to port Bitcore Properly…I can certainly give it a go.

The feather-api works and is basis of some backend services we provide and use ourself

no fance web interface, but the important thing is the jsson format returned
