Connecting to ip6 localhost
locktemp997 opened this issue · comments
Hi maybe you can add this to the docs, but on my ubuntu mate machine, nano.rpc.Client('http://localhost:7076') would not work (connection refused). Instead I had to do nano.rpc.Client('http://ip6-localhost:7076')
Could you post your rai_node config.json

::1 is the loopback address in IPv6, which is the default in config.json.
While we're at it:
The nano-python library seem to default to http://localhost:7076, which, on most systems, maps to an IPv4 address--I'm guessing IPv4 was the old default in config.json / rai_node.
The easy solution would be to update the default URI in nano.rpc.Client--however, this would probably cause breakage for some users when upgrading the library.
