Steem Blockchain Data Service Rails Engine

Ruby on Rails Engine for accessing Steem Blockchain Data Service.

The sbds project is the official database layer for accessing a local, read-only version of the Steem blockchain. It is developed and maintained by Steemit, Inc. and can be confugured to use SQLite, Postgres, and MySQL.

This gem allows you to access an sdbs instance with ActiveRecord.
