Decentralized Solana Betting App Backend

This repository contains the backend implementation for a decentralized betting application built on the Solana blockchain. The backend is responsible for managing user interactions, processing bets, and ensuring seamless communication with the Solana blockchain.

Features

• Decentralized Architecture: Leverages Solana's blockchain to ensure transparency and immutability of betting transactions.
• User Management: Handles user authentication and wallet integration.
• Bet Processing: Manages the lifecycle of bets, including creation, validation, and settlement.
• Blockchain Interaction: Facilitates communication with the Solana blockchain for transaction execution and data retrieval.
• Cron Job Functionality: Automates periodic tasks to ensure smooth operation of the betting platform.

Cron Job Functionality

The backend includes a cron job system that performs the following tasks:

1. Bet Settlement: Automatically checks for bets that have reached their conclusion and processes the results.
2. Payout Distribution: Ensures timely distribution of winnings to the respective users' wallets.
3. Data Cleanup: Removes expired or invalid bets from the system to maintain database efficiency.
4. Blockchain Sync: Periodically syncs with the Solana blockchain to fetch the latest state and ensure data consistency.
5. Notification Dispatch: Sends reminders or updates to users about their bets or platform activities.

Getting Started

To set up and run the backend locally, follow these steps:

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/your-repo/decentralized-solana-betting-backend.git
   

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install
   

3. Build the project:

   npm run build
   

4. Configure environment variables in a .env file.

   DATABASE_URL=""
   PRIVATE_KEY=""
   

5. Start the server:

   npm start
   

Using Docker

Alternatively, you can use Docker to build and run the project:

1. Build the Docker image:

   docker build -t decentralized-betting-backend .
   

2. Run the Docker container:

   docker run -p 3000:3000 --env-file .env decentralized-betting-backend
