Its Alive!!!

I might write a tutorial if there’s enough interest…this was a pain in the ass but a fun learning experience.

@aciddude Nice work! If you have time, Id like to see a tutorial on this.

I have to say I like the look of the other one better but this isnt bad at all.

Good , I have a same website http://block.ftc-c.com/

AcidD

Thanks guys.
I’ve added an updating chart using some simple javascipt to get the current mining difficulty.

@lizhi, I’ve just noticed you’re using a Bushtars fork of insight…which I never knew existed! I assume all the config for featherCoin is already done ? …Maybe I should switch over.

I used used the fork from Block-Explorer…and then painfully edited…

Thanks @AmDD - I’ll be bringing this up when I get some time.

Sorry again guys! The FTC full node is up, it’s just the Block Explorer/API that keeps crashing.

Probably you mentioned it already, but what software you are using for the block explorer?
I’m using the Abe explorer on explorer.feathercoin.com

Yo, @Wellenreiter I’m using the below

https://github.com/bitcoin-blockexplorer/insight-frontend.git
https://github.com/bitcoin-blockexplorer/insight-api.git

I had to edit a lot of configs and whatnot to make it work with FTC. it runs on node.js but it doesnt seem so stable. but my knowledge of nodeJS is limited.

Wellenreiter

I never got the insight explorer running :(
It has a nice Web interface, but I switched to the Abe one, as that one runs on top of Apache and mysql.

If you get your one stable I’m happy to switch to the Insight explorer on explorer.feathercoin.com

@Wellenreiter

I swear @Bushstar ported an older version of insight for FTC - check his github. I think Lizhi uses that code.

Hi All

This has been up and down for a few months now. I’ve redone the config and a proper proxy etc.

http://fsight.chain.tips/

next steps are to add HTTPS and possibly move it to a bigger VPS if there’s a considerable increase in traffic.

I also want to add google analytics or something similar to it.

@aciddude cool :-)

Very cool news!

December 2016 Updates:

Updated/Refreshed colour scheme to match Feathercoin forum (mainly to move away from the default green)
Modified code to show a Decoded Version of the block info so we can read OP_RETURN (Comments on the Blockchain)

Read a comment on the block chain:

1 - Find a transaction with a comment, example below
http://fsight.chain.tips/tx/96d954dc26873558507533822581aa7f3a8a57df9d3cdb1f1fd4c272ba22ffae

2 - Click the plus + button on the Transation (under Details) and scroll down.

You should see:

Decoded Message

More December updates:

Added SSL from LetsEncrypt.org
Automated redirect from HTTP to HTTPS
Disabled SSLv3
added Google Analytics for fun :-)

The Qualys SSL Labs gives me an A :-) !! WOOP!
https://www.ssllabs.com/ssltest/analyze.html?d=fsight.chain.tips

I used the CertBot application to automatically deploy the LetsEncrypt SSL Certificate to my Apache Config
https://certbot.eff.org/#centosrhel7-apache

https://letsencrypt.org/

Took about 15 mins reading and 15 mins implementation time to get the site secured with SSL.
Their certificates expire every 90 days…BUT! CertBot provides a script which you add to a cron job that automatically updates it for you. Amazing!

Great work :)

Hi All,

This has also been added to CoinMarketCap.com under “Explorer 2” :-) !!!

First use of your great tool today.

Very good job !!!

Top right of the screen there is a drop down that allows you to choose between FTC, USD, etc. I dont think the USD is working correctly. It must be pulling the Bitcoin price still rather than Feathercoin.
