+ ## Sauron
2
+
3
+ A Bitcoin backend plugin relying on [ Esplora] ( https://github.com/Blockstream/esplora ) .
4
+
5
+
6
+ ### About
7
+
8
+ It allows C-lightning to run without needing a * local* ` bitcoind ` , and can be either
9
+ self-hosted (Esplora is Open Source, and self hosting it is basically a ` docker ` one-liner).
10
+
11
+ This is still a WIP, so is the API C-lightning side. So not to be used for real.
12
+
13
+
14
+ ### Run
15
+
16
+ You need to:
17
+ - disable the default Bitcoin backend (` bcli ` )
18
+ - register sauron
19
+ - provide the API endpoint you want to use
20
+
21
+ Here is a fully reptilian example running against [ blockstream.info] ( https://blockstream.info/ ) :
22
+
23
+ ```
24
+ lightningd --mainnet --disable-plugin bcli --plugin $PWD/sauron.py --sauron-api-endpoint https://blockstream.info/api/
25
+ ```
You can’t perform that action at this time.
