Running the Server
To enable RPC server use the following flag (set to true by default).
blockxd start --json-rpc.enable
Eth
,Net
and Web3
namespaces are enabled by default. In order to enable other namespaces use flag --json-rpc.api
.blockxd start --json-rpc.api eth,txpool,personal,net,debug,web3,miner
eth_call
and eth_estimateGas
define a global gas cap over rpc for DoS protection. You can override the default gas cap value of 25,000,000 by passing a custom value when starting the node:# set gas cap to 85M
blockxd start --json-rpc.gas-cap 85000000000
# set gas cap to infinite (=0)
blockxd start --json-rpc.gas-cap 0
If accessing the RPC from a browser, CORS will need to be enabled with the appropriate domain set. Otherwise, JavaScript calls are limit by the same-origin policy and requests will fail.
The CORS setting can be updated from the
app.toml
