Run barkd and point it at a datadir. On first start, it initializes the datadir and generates an auth token. 
barkd --datadir <path-to-bark-data>
The API listens on http://localhost:3535/api/v1 by default. A Swagger UI is served at /swagger-ui and the OpenAPI spec at /api-docs/openapi.json.

Common flags

  • --datadir <path> — where barkd stores wallet data and its auth secret. Defaults to ~/.bark. Also settable via BARKD_DATADIR.
  • --host <host> and --port <port> — bind address for the REST API. Also settable via BARKD_BIND_HOST and BARKD_BIND_PORT.
  • --allowed-origins <origins> — comma-separated list of CORS origins allowed to call the API from a browser. Cross-origin requests are denied by default. Also settable via BARKD_ALLOWED_ORIGINS.
The barkd API is designed for local use. Do not expose it to the public internet without additional authentication in front of it—anyone with the bearer token can control the wallet.
