How to run ripple v2 on local

Question

I downloaded the source code of rippled-historical-database on github, https://github.com/ripple/rippled-historical-database

but I don’t know how to run it on locally. Can I build my own Ripple Data API v2 service ?

I tried to run the test file under the test path locally, and got the following error:

实际 :{"errno":-61,"code":"ECONNREFUSED","syscall":"connect","address":"127.0.0.1","port":7117}

The repository you've been downloaded is but a API reference repo to the full history node.

In order to run a full history node you'd need 10TB+ of disk space and enormously good connection to the internet.

Are you sure about that?

Otherwise, if you're trying to access a full history node using The Ripple Data API v2, it is stated in the repo you've specified as below:

Ripple provides a live instance of the Data API with as complete a transaction record as possible at the following address:

https://data.ripple.com

You can run a historical database yourself, but we don’t recommend it because of the complexity involved. If your use case requires that you run a historical database, contact Ripple Technical Services for information about how to set it up.

If you wanna try it out online. Do so by visiting: https://xrpl.org/data-api-v2-tool.html#get-ledger
