Installing local electrum server that relies on the bitcoin daemon inside of Samourai Dojo for its data
I am successfully running a local electrum server, getting its data from dojo. This is useful for private use of hardware wallets.
Step 1: As Laurent MT suggested in the Samourai telegram group, you need to edit the docker-compose.yaml file, adding to the bitcoind section the following two lines
ports:
- "127.0.0.1:28256:28256"
Step 2: Follow install directions for electrs, an electrum server written in rust.
electrs install directions can be found here: https://github.com/romanz/electrs/blob/master/doc/usage.md
