+# Ranchi Mall FLO API
+Ranchi Mall FLO Tokens and Smart Contract API
+
+The above API provides details about the token and smart contract system on the FLO blockchain. 
+
+## Running the API
+
+### Pre-requisites 
+1. flo-token-tracking database 
+2. A FLO public-private key pair for the socket API - The public key will be put on the API and private key will be used to connect to the socket API by the client. The socket API provides live feed of new incoming blocks and transactions
+
+### Installation
+```
+git clone https://github.com/ranchimall/ranchimallflo-api
+cd ranchimallflo-api
+python3 -m venv py3
+source py3/bin/activate 
+pip install requests quart quart_cors ecdsa config arrow
+```
+Create a **config.py** file inside the API folder, with the details mentioned in the pre-requisite
+```
+# Create a config file 
+dbfolder = '< PATH TO YOUR FLO-TOKEN-TRACKING FOLDER >'
+sse_pubKey = '< YOUR PUBLIC KEY FROM THE PUBLIC KEY PAIR >'
+```
+
+To start the API, execute the following from inside the folder
+```
+python ranchimallflo_api.py
+```
