Running Public Site Without Exposing RPC #53

Open stone212 opened 6 years ago

stone212 commented 6 years ago

Has anyone in this group found how to run this explorer on a public IP address but not expose the RPC port (8545) publicly?

EDIT (rpccors settings does not seem strong enough?)

brannondorsey commented 6 years ago

Ditto. Some sort of private proxy process would be nice so that this explorer can be run without the privacy concerns of exposing a geth node to the public Internet.

tcc-world commented 6 years ago

for that you can use --rpcport 127.0.0.1 flag with geth

stone212 commented 6 years ago

@tcc-world If you do that then the explorer doesn't come up (on a public IP).
