You can use blockchain-mongo to load the entire blockchain to a MongoDB collection, it uses the service provided by blockchain.info.

Since the process can be quite lengthy, there is also an option to resume loading (true by default).

Feel free to contribute and use.

###Before installing Make sure you have the a local running mongodb instance.

###Install

npm install blockchain-mongo

###Usage

This will start loading the blockchain data into a db named 'blockchain' on your locally hosted MongoDB instance.

####Configuration Currently there are two configurable parts, options in the main script and the mongo connection string in lib/mongo.js.
