Boot node

In order to get an initial list of Gateways, Vocdoni uses boot node servers.

Boot node servers typically provide an HTTP GET endpoint to fetch the list.

JSON API schema

The data schema used to define a set of boot nodes is a JSON file like the example:

   "goerli": {
      "web3": { 
         "endpoints": [
            { "uri": "https://host1/web3" },
