Add posting to blockpub goroutine

kastolars commented 5 years ago

Description: BlockPub is a page owned by the ACM used by SIG Blockchain as a "meeting place" for active network users of Aurum. The idea here is to create a "heartbeat" for the producer, periodically advertising its IP:Port combo publicly to say its alive and accepting requests.

[ ] Call nettools.GetIP in main.go (right after the call to http.ListenAndServe
[ ] Call requests.AddPeerToDiscoveryRequest and send it off
[ ] Check http://blockchain.acmapp.tech/peers (under Raw Data) to see if the information is populated in the array (Please screenshot this to show that it's working in your PR)
[ ] Make a goroutine that repeats requests.AddPeerToDiscoveryRequest send every 5 minutes
