SteemStream.com v2 - Big Updates: Desktop Notifications, Analytics, Save Settings, Filter Users and more!

in steem •  8 years ago  (edited)

Just 5 days ago SteemStream was launched to visualise all activity from all Steemit users as they are written in realtime into the blockchain. The post garnered quite some upvotes, but most importantly many feature requests, which I have filtered and implemented:

SteemStream Now Features:



Screen recording of the SteemStream app

Desktop Notifications

You can now get notifications on activities by users you follow. Onclick the notification will take you directly to the source link on Steemit. Turn on Desktop Notifications in the 'Filter Users' menu.

Filter / Follow Users of your choice (optionally /w notifications)

Click the 'Filter Users' button on the top right to enter the Filter Users menu. Here you can add users by username.. If you tick the 'Desktop Notifications'-checkbox you can opt-in for Desktop Notifications.

Speed (!) of transactions

The Chart's X-axis (horizontal axis) titles will display a speed per minute for each individual activity. This will get more accurate the longer you stay on the page... It is fascinating to see how much Steemit grows (currently at a ratio of 2.5 users per minute) .

Limit the types of transactions you want to see

For example turn off 'Upvotes' to have a clearer view... You can turn the types on and off by clicking the 'titles' in the Chart X (horizontal) axis on the bottom of the page.. Note: if you have Desktop Notifications running, this will also turn the Notifications off for the de-activated transaction type. You can turn it back on by clicking again on the title on the X-axis on the Chart.

Save Settings and Preferences

The app uses a cookie to store your preferences so whenever you return the app still knows which users you follow, and other preferences such as activated transaction types.

Various small things:

  • Removed the background animated visual - It looked really cool, but it also caused fans to overheat... Don't want that.
  • Added links directly to Steemit instead of Steemd
  • Added Downvotes to the chart
  • Added a line for 'total transactions' to the chart
  • Now you can see the SBD/STEEM value for the order created.

LMAO awesome reply!
@roelandp you're dancing all over the place man, when do you have time to code?

Ps
Spread the word on my Image Hosting Project ;) Update 2 : https://steemit.com/steemit/@blueorgy/steemimg-com-part-2-dedicated-steem-image-hosting-website-update-and-analytics

Anyone who is serious about Steem should use this. It's fantastic. Good work, iHimbo.

Lollz :)

And anyone who is REALLY serious would build a custom bot ;)

Desktop notifications, you bloody legend.

Well done! You've raised the bar way higher again, I love seeing how fast the steemit community is growing :) I still haven't released steemviz v2, and it feels like days of wasted effort now that you've got so many of the features working already..

Is there still enough interest in an alternative complete rewrite with more customisation and advanced features? I was aiming to find a niche between steemstream and steemd , a bit more interactive/detailed in how you can explore deeper into the stream of data etc.. I don't want to offend or be seen as a copycat, this is fresh code from scratch - but is there enough interest in this?

Congrats @roelandp You have permanent spot on my monitors and surely another record post in the making here :)

Glad to see you are improving It! I like the finer user option! You rock!

Awesome, Thanks mate!! Glad to see you keeping up on new features and requests.

I'm sure you'll be getting a crazy number of users from that filter/follow feature along. If you need any help with implementing additional features, don't hesitate to ask.

On behalf of data visualization junkies everywhere... Thank you! and We love you!

Oh Wow! this is great @roelandp and those are a great list of features! Will try it out and let you know how it goes. Cheers!

Ah yes,

Removed the background animated visual

easier to stalk people now thank you.

Keep it flowing

The links to orders are going to https://steemit.com/market.html, when it should be https://steemit.com/market.
HTH

fixed in latest version btw! thx


I love it!

great job @roelandp

I think a nice feature would be to only show activity from the top X Steemit users (by Steem power). Anyone can do this now by copying accounts from https://steemd.com/richlist but I am guessing a lot of users might be doing this and this will save them time :)

Really good work, dude.
I've been reading your code and it was very instructive for me.

This is insanely brilliant. You deserve all the upvotes you get. I cannot believe the pace at which Steemit is gathering eh steem .. Seriously though, considering how young it is, and when you compare it to other cryptos such as Litecoin. Astonishing. Exciting!

Nice features!
I really missed the save filter function from steemitx.com.

Hello. I need statistics of visits in a month to learn in what day and hour the greatest attendance. Prompt please as it can be done!
Здравствуйте . Мне нужна статистика посешений за месяц чтоб узнать в какой день и час наибольшая посещаемость. Подскажите пожалуйсто как это можно сделать!

And how about desktop notifications?

I haven't tried it yet. I will set it up later today.

I started using the desktop notification and it is good. I was afraid I will get too much notification because I follow a lot of users, but it isn't annoying. So I will stick to this feature! :)

It's great features that many users were waiting for.

A classic example how those who are so creative - like yourself - will take a subject to the next level and benefit so many within the Steemit community.

excelent job!
is it possible to add link from point at the graph and post?

Most of the Upvotes / Posts / Comments have links to the given page on Steemit... You could share that maybe? No feature to share a state of the website, as it is all realtime

¡Nice posts keep going!
We were happy when we saw the price of steem too, we were like this

:9

This is really good stuff!
I don't understand why it says all the Upvotes are dont with a voteweight of 10000. Shouldn't the voteweight vary based on how much Steem Power/Voting Power the upvoter has?

I think because there are many new users upvoting :)

Great work dude! One problem for me is that the save button doesn't work after i added names to the filter list. Is this a problem on my client?

EDIT: oh the filtered messages come in that window, hmm. Now let's find if it also filters the message types like on the main page.

EDIT2: there are no category filters in the filtered window and desktop notifications randomly turn on which is REALLY annoying. Also my userlist isn't saved. Maybe a problem with my cookies settings?

nice Update :) keep grow it

Nice looks like you're adding some good features. Much thanks for all your effort into making steemit the best. I will be using your steemstream.com for sure.

Dude you are on fire, I really hope you keep this motivation you've got, You are going some exciting places

Lovely. Good work mate :)

Something that would improve the desktop notification side of things is sound - here's what I'm using http://ionden.com/a/plugins/ion.sound/en.html

Do you actually here sound? I mean, do they come with sound? Or you would like to here a 'pling' to notify that a notification is showing?

I hear nothing with the current notification setup on windows chrome/firefox if that's what you mean.

The ion.sound js above comes with a bunch of sounds effects and is super easy to drop in and trigger the different sounds.. I made it trigger different sounds depending on notification type so I can tell the difference between an upvote/downvote/comment from a distance - it's helping me obsessively refresh less :)

Ah that's cool I'm going to check!

Glad to see you are furthering this project! Keep it up man! I love how far its come in such a short time!

Keep up the good work. There are so many potentially good tools coming out.

long time stats
time filters - hourly, weekly etc

@roelandp I am ready to work with you on getting sound with this- I got some info from a midi expert- it can be done! :D email me [email protected]

keep watching

Nice work!

Nothing? You have a recent IE? Does the legacy version http://steemstream.com/v1.html work on your IE?

IE 11.
V1 shows the floating dot animation but no stream.

This is really good stuff!!!

This is so good! STEEM keeps getting better and better each day!

Bravo!
