Grin-Explorer is the first block explorer for the Grin blockchain. This is the source code for the instance running at https://grinexplorer.net.
I hope it provides a useful service for anybody interested in Grin and to its development.
Please report bugs, feature requests or feedback here or ping me (@hendi) on Gitter.

Python >= 3.5 and PostgreSQL >= 9.3 are required.
Grin is required to run as an archival node and basic auth needs to be disabled in its REST API. Set `archive_mode = true` and comment out `api_secret_path` in `grin-server.toml` respectively.
Start PostgreSQL. Note that the following is just an example to run PostgreSQL, you should ensure you use your own user and credentials when setting it up.
sudo postgresql-setup --initdb
sudo systemctl start postgresql
sudo -u postgres -i
# psql
postgres=# \password postgres
Enter new password:
Enter it again:
postgres=# CREATE USER myuser WITH PASSWORD 'mypass';
postgres=# CREATE DATABASE mydb;
postgres=# GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE mydb to myuser;
postgres=# \q
sudo systemctl restart postgresqlStart `grin-explorer`. Again, ensure you use your own credentials for Django.
