Welcome to the Node Noodle wiki!
Please bear with us as we update this wiki.
Grab the binary, or compile using ./build.sh
Drop the binary wherever your the "-cli", or main coin binary lives.
Node Noodle requires a functional command line client for your coin. For modern coins like ZCoin or Dash, these would be zcoin-cli and dash-cli, for legacy clients like EliteCoin, it would just be 1337d. You shouldn't worry about the names, as these are already preconfigured if the coin is supported: ./noodle -c. You only need to make sure it can access the running coin daemon without any extra arguments. Therefore, you MUST MUST MUST have your coin.conf file setup so that the "-cli" program works, or you've started your coin with the correct rpc arguments for it work.
Here's a Zcoin example:
It should look like the image above (except for the supported coin).
Run ./noodle, it will auto-detect a supported coin. Run ./noodle -v for some more exciting info!
Node Noodle was created to assist in monitoring masternodes (as well as stakecoins). Specifically, to allow keeping track of block time drift to avoid your Masternode (or Znode) from getting the dreaded RESTART_REQUIRED error. Node Noodle can send you an alert before this happens!
Node Noodle also plays well with Monit, specifically with shutting down the coin daemon, and waiting for monit to bring it back up. It can also work without Monit, but it's not as robust.
We've added initial support for checking of Insight servers to report network drifts. This feature is still experimental and may or may not work properly. Please report any issues via the Issue tracker above.
Please report any errors!
