Agoric Systems Steem account creation faucet code is now Open Source

in utopian-io •  7 years ago  (edited)

  • What is the project about?
    https://agoric.co, the official website of @agoric.systems with a built in Steem account creation faucet has been open sourced. It uses unique codes printed on physical slips to allow a Steem account to be created using the account @agorian as the registrar. @buildteam expressed interest in using our code to drive their own Steem invite voucher project, so we have decided to finally open source the project. You can access the Github repository here.

  • Technology Stack
    Python 3.5, Flask, SQLAlchemy, steem-python, MySQL.

  • Roadmap
    We are opening the code to the community so that others may benefit from our work or use it as a starting point, as we will be focusing on other projects.

  • How to contribute?
    The code is free to use for commercial purposes. Pull requests to our repo will be reviewed and merged if it makes sense.

Check out the instructions below (also in README.md) to hack on our code.

# Running the web app locally for development on macOS

1) Download virtualenv / virtualenvwrapper.sh and create 
a new virtualenv. 

Using homebrew, this can be done with the following commands:

> brew install virtualenvwrapper.sh


2) Next, we want to create a new virtualenv using Python 3.5+.

On macOS the following env variables are necessary. 
You can set them by adding them to your ~/.profile

export WORKON_HOME=~/.venvs
export VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/local/bin/python3
source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
export PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH
export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/opt/openssl/include"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="/usr/local/opt/openssl/lib/pkgconfig"
export FLASK_APP=agoricco
export FLASK_DEBUG=1


3) Now the virtualenv can be created.

> mkvirtualenv agoricco


4) Your prompt should say (agoricco) now.

5) Clone the project's git repo somewhere.

> git clone [email protected]:agoric-systems/agoric.co.git

6) Next, change into the project's directory.

> cd agoricco

7) Install the python dependencies.

> pip install -r requirements.txt

8) Change directory again into the agoricco directory
 and start the flask app.

> flask run

9) If you need to activate the virtualenv  again in the future:

> workon agoricco

Don't hesitate to contact @robrigo with any questions, or if you'd like us to send some scrips your way.

super exciting! glad to see you got the scripts back and the project is moving forward. Open Source on top of that? Weeeeeeeeee!

Thanks, it was great talking with you at Steemfest! @lovejoy got the scrips back after a few weeks of being home, they eventually found their way to him, and we've been giving them out in our local communities.

Huh? This post is a great example of my experience on Steemit as a newbie of about a week. It seems like there’s something cool here, but I really have zero clue what it’s about. I wish more people would provide the context for their posts - why what they are posting about matters, who it matters to, what you need to know to make sense of it, etc. So far Steem is almost impenetrable to newbies because it seem mostly like people who have been here a while and are already 3 miles ahead and running at full speed. Is there a slow lane on Steem? ;D

You can read @agoric.systems post history to see what the project is about. This post is specifically related to open sourcing the process we use to validate codes and register Steem accounts.

Ok thanks, I read their first post, and I guess I get the gist, but it was still a little vague what is going on besides their basic goals.

What are the minimum steem power / steem / sbd limits to start registering accounts?

We give each account 3 SP that we register.

How can find "Agoric script code"? Is there any procedure to follow?

The github for this project is available here: https://github.com/agoric-systems/agoric.co

You need to be given agoric scrip invite slips to get a code. This post is for those that would like to set up their own invite slip distribution using the same web application code.

If you want some agoric scrip, you need to send a mailing address to me. You can DM me on steemit.chat or telegram.

How does this work? I do not understand.

What I mean is that I do not understand what this code is for and I would like to know how this entire thing works. Can you explain?

Maybe you aren't the target audience ;)

Probably...
