Starname Resolver and Registration
This document will explain how to get started with the IOV Name Service.
Block explorer
The IOV Name Service has a block explorer in Mainnet:
https://big-dipper.iov-mainnet-2.iov.one/
It is the easiest way to see the transactions getting on the IOV Name Service.
Using the REST API
The IOV Name Service has a REST API in Testnet:
https://iovnscli-rest-api.iov-mainnet-2.iov.one/
.
Messages generated by the CLI can then be sent via this REST API.
Installing the CLI
You can install the CLI from the GitHub repo:
https://github.com/iov-one/iovns
The IOV Name Service and the Starnames
The
IOV Name Service
provides human readable address linked to a list of crypto-addresses. We called this human readable address the
starname
.
A starname can have two different formats:
*domain
name*domain
