API: Document how to deploy/configure API
Per conversation in the API weekly meeting on 3-9, @CharlieC3, Please add your thoughts to improve deployment documentation.
There's more feedback from other devs running API nodes on their own: https://hiropbc.slack.com/archives/C03UFUA5Q65/p1680012246276749 —mostly revolving around slower syncs and event replay issues.
@CharlieC3: With your new blog and the Hiro Archive docs update, do we still have any gaps? Or, we can close this as complete?
@sabbyanandan This should remain open; the Archive docs update was only a small part and mostly pertains to overall API maintenance and doesn't really touch on how to deploy/configure the API.
@CharlieC3 Could you help with the steps to configure and deploy API's?
@LakshmiLavanyaKasturi Sorry I haven't forgotten about this, I just haven't had a chance to work on it yet.
To address this issue:
- Any ETA on hosting a Bitcoin indexer these days? Once available, we can move off Blockstream entirely (which had some downtime last week...causing other headaches). Reference: https://hiropbc.slack.com/archives/C03UFUA5Q65/p1680012246276749
- Document steps to deploy and configure APIs. @CharlieC3 can help with more info.
sounds like we are de-prioritizing content around spinning up nodes/apis atm
closing for now
@ryanwaits I still feel like this is an important issue that should get addressed at some point. Can we leave it open?
@CharlieC3 yeah thats fine with me, there were a few other issues that felt pretty similar that I've also been closing, so I'm fine leaving this one open
@ryanwaits Are you able to own this and work with @zone117x on the updated details for deploying the API?
