Bitcoin Address Queue

This is a very minimal web application to display a unique bitcoin reception address each time the page is refreshed. It does this by drawing from a pool of pre-generated addresses (so you don't need to store your private key on the server).

Configuration

Edit the file config.rb to specify where the file lives with the bitcoin addresses, one address per line.

Running

This web application uses Sinatra and Rack. To run in a development environment:

RACK_ENV=development ruby app.rb

Then browse to http://0.0.0.0:4567/index.html

To run in production deployment using apache and mod_passenger:

<VirtualHost *:80>
  ServerName www.yourapplication.com
  DocumentRoot /path/to/bitaddressq/public
  <Directory /path/to/bitaddressq/public>
    Require all granted
    Allow from all
    Options -MultiViews
  </Directory>
</VirtualHost>

Todo

Not much really, this is dead simple. But maybe:

• Add localization
• Add tests, using random keys (base 58 encode random binary data, see https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Base58Check_encoding)
