Picopayments (Micropayments, Payment Channels) Testing Topic

###Source Code

  • Use Python3 (pip3 install picopayments-cli)
  • If you install from source, don’t forget to install the requirements first.
  • Picopayments Hub seems to require a patched version of Counterparty - see below in Docs

###Docs

Make sure you read Testing Guide (the first link).
Bugs should be submitted to the main repo (the first link). Documentation bugs can be submitted either there or to .

###Discussion

  • The primary place for discussion is the Storj Slack.

###Other Notes

  • If you run tests, do a sudo apt-get install libffi-dev -y first
  • Bitcoin Core 0.13 with addrindex patch can be downloaded and built from https://github.com/btcdrak/bitcoin/tree/addrindex-0.13 (0.12.1 addrindex can be used, 0.13 isn’t required, but since you’re testing you might as well try v0.13 addrindex)
