The BitGo Express REST API is a lightweight service for developers that want to take advantage of BitGo but are developing in a language without a native BitGo SDK.

BitGo Express runs as a service in your own datacenter, and handles the client-side operations involving your own keys, such as partially signing transactions before submitting them to BitGo. This ensures your keys never leave your network, and are never seen by BitGo. BitGo Express can also proxy the standard BitGo REST APIs, providing a unified interface to BitGo through a single REST API.

To use BitGo Express:

Install BitGoJS Run the following command in the bin directory: ./bitgo-express --debug --port 3080 --env test --bind localhost

Make all BitGo REST API calls to the machine on which bitgo-express is running.
