Apache HTTPD Configuration for Bitcoin JS Remote
[I am assuming a little knowledge about Apache httpd. You had better read on Apache httpd directives: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/directives.html]
Assuming your bitcoin.conf file includes:
rpcuser=myuser rpcpassword=mypass
First, generate a suitable file for Basic Authentification. See man htpasswd or execute
htpasswd -b -c my_prefer_filename myuser mypass
Set following Apache directives in the proper context, i.e. server or virtual host configuration:
<Proxy http://127.0.0.1:8332> AuthType Basic AuthName "Bitcoin Access" AuthUserFile my_prefer_filename Require user myuser Order deny,allow Allow from all </Proxy>
Assuming you want to access Bitcoin JS Remote with http://mydomain/jbc
Alias /jbc pathabs_to_bitcoin-js-remote ProxyPass /lbc/ http://127.0.0.1:8332/ ProxyPassReverse /lbc/ http://127.0.0.1:8332/
User and Password will be required when accessing with http://mydomain/jbc. Then, set Bitcoind's URL to the desired path: in the above example will be “/lbc/” or by default will be “/”.
Alternatively, create a “settings.json” file in the bitcoin-js-remote directory: (see proper syntax in the settings.json_sample):
RPC.url : /lbc/ RPC.user : myuser RPC.password : mypass
That's all. Restart your Apache web server.
Other interesting Apache directives: To redirect all HTTP to HTTPS (of course, you need a well-configured ssl site). !!! SSL access is extremely recommended to protect your Bitcoin data.
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
To avoid your log file from flooding
SetEnvIf Request_URI "^/jbc/" dontlog SetEnvIf Request_URI "^/lbc/" dontlog CustomLog myfile.log combined env=!dontlog
Finally, if you go in trouble, check proper access to bitcoin daemon with curl:
curl --trace-time --trace-ascii - --data-binary '{"jsonrpc": "1.0", "id":"curltest", "method": "getinfo", "params": [] }' --header 'content-type: text/plain;' http://myuser:mypass@127.0.0.1:8332/
