Chainlink
=========
2020-01-06 11:46:27 -05:00
Chainlink is a utility that will run on a webserver to handle crypto-backed
domain names Specifically this works with
2020-01-06 11:45:29 -05:00
[Unstoppable Domains](https://unstoppabledomains.com)
This utilizes public IPFS gateways to display IPFS content, or will redirect to
whatever the URL is set to in the Unstoppable Domain management.

Testing on a running instance
=============================
Assuming that it is running (I could be messing with it, or it might just be
broken), you may try this without installing by going to

URL Patterns
============
2020-01-06 11:54:29 -05:00
The general format is http://localhost:5000/<domain>/<action>
where <domain> is a .crypto or .zil name registered with Unstoppable
Domains and <action> can be
2020-01-06 11:45:29 -05:00
* html - uses the IPFS hash set in Unstoppable Domains management
* redir - uses the redirect_url set in Unstoppable Domains management
* raw - displays an HTML table view of the full JSON returned from Unstoppable
Domains API
The default action is "html", so if you don't specify anything it will attempt
to use that field.
