## Example
To run the bridge against a Daml ledger listening on `https://127.0.0.1:6865` and expose the JSON API on port `8080`:
```shell
TOKEN="..."
daml-bridge --ledger-uri https://127.0.0.1:6865 --http-port 8080 --bridge-token $TOKEN
```
## Limitations
The bridge supports all operations of the Daml JSON API except:
- [Queries](https://docs.daml.com/json-api/index.html#get-all-active-contracts)
- [Streaming API](https://docs.daml.com/json-api/index.html#streaming-api)
- [Healthcheck Endpoints](https://docs.daml.com/json-api/index.html#healthcheck-endpoints)
It does not provide a database backing store or cache, all operations are related to the underlying GRPC API.
