Blockstack Resolver

During 2014-2016, Bockstack resolver was a separate service (like DNS resolvers). It was merged into the Blockstack API in early 2017.

The following (legacy) API call is still being supported by the Blockstack API:

http://localhost:5000/v2/users/fredwilson

And you can see a legacy resolver in action at http://resolver.onename.com/v2/users/fredwilson

Cron Job for Namespaces

Note: the instructions below need updating.

Currently, the resolver indexes all valid names in a local file which can be populated by running

$ ./refresh_names.sh

On a production deployment, you should add a crond job to periodically run this script. You can edit your crontab file by:

$ crontab -e

Here is a sample crontab file that runs the refresh script every two hours:

SHELL=/bin/bash
HOME=/home/ubuntu
