user26527: I just started running a full node and was wondering how to use these commands to verify my node: https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/
Specifically, what command line or IDE do I need to type these commands into? Very new at this, sorry

user26327: If you are on MacOS or Linux use
curl https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/v1/nodes/SERVER-ADDRESS/

in Terminal or iTerm2
e.g. 
curl https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/v1/nodes/107.3.158.6-8333/

will return to you
{"detail": "Not found"}

because it's not a running node address and port
and 
curl https://getaddr.bitnodes.io/api/v1/nodes/80.56.212.9-8333/

will return to you
