BTC Fee Estimate Tracker

This service consists of the componenets:

1. BTC Fee Estimate Watcher Back End
2. BTC Fee Estimate Charter Front End
3. Postgres Database for Watcher

Prerequisites

Linux host with docker

Usage

Firstly:

Download current last 1 year history of api specific fee estimates (1-2 block/fastest) for mempool.space as CSV from txstats and rename file as per Watcher ENV var CSV_FILE_PATH (default: fee_estimate_history.csv). Rename csv headers to "time", "satsPerByte" (ensure using CSV UTF-8 format to edit file or else expected and actual headers will give mismatch error even if they visually appear same), and place in ./btc-fee-watcher/assets/

Then:

Prod

1. cd ./deployment/config/
2. cp config.sample.prod env.prod and update env.prod
3. cd ./deployment/scripts
4. ./build.prod.sh
5. ./start.prod.sh

Dev / Local

1. cd ./deployment/scripts/
2. cp config.sample.local env.local and update env.local
3. cd ./deployment/scripts
4. ./build.local.sh
5. ./start.local.sh

Update code in ./btc-fee-watcer/src and ./btc-fee-charter/ to get hot reload.
