[TLLP] Plunge GUI beta

[cryptog]

Nice job!

I got Traceback (most recent call last):
File “plunge.py”, line 15, in
from kivy.uix.actionbar import ActionBar
ImportError: No module named actionbar

on ubuntu.

Any idea?

[woolly_sammoth]

ah yes. You’ll need the development version of kivy. Have a look on kivy.org.
I’ll update the instructions in a bit. (Done. The repo you add needs to be the nightly build rather than the stable one)

[cryptog]

All right. Tks

[cryptog]

Still getting the same error …

[JordanLee]

This is a wonderful surprise! This makes the trustless pool created by @creon accessible and appealing to a much larger crowd. Great work @woolly_sammoth!

[woolly_sammoth]

@cryptog, did you remove the existing repo before adding the nightly one?
When you start Plunge it should print out the kivy version as the first line. Could you post that here and I’ll compare to mine.

@JordanLee, thank you. I hope it does have that effect. Creons pool software is really good and hopefully, by allowing interaction like this, liquidity provision can be made into an attractive alternative to mining for those who feel they missed the boat.

[cryptog]

Yes I did remove the stable repository and install the nightly one.
I am getting Kivy v1.7.2 .

[woolly_sammoth]

ah, I’m getting Kivy v1.9.1-dev. I think the ActionBar was added in v1.8.
Which Ubuntu are you running?

[desrever]

congrats guys! this is a real candidate to be a barrier killer and a distribute liquidity provision to a wider audience.

It can also be packaged into a MacOSX application, we should try that one day.

I love the option

2. : If you are already providing liquidity and have your client running somewhere else

But I am not sure I do understand it fully : What do you mean by “somewhere else”? can it monitor a remoe machine?

Why does it need api keys?

[desrever]

PS: @assistant tip 5 @woolly_sammoth

[creon]

Why does it need api keys?

you can specify xxx as secret. It only needs your key, because it greps eu.nupool.net/yourkey from the server website. You don’t even start the client.

[desrever]

you can specify xxx as secret

Ok, so my question made sense !

[creon]

absolutely we had some discussions about the key management system but once you are managing multiple keys on different exchanges, woollys interface is just the best solution to handle it, while it may be a bit “too much” if you are only using a single exchange or just want to monitor a key.

[desrever]

trying it now, suggestion : edit OP and documentation with a direct link to the only dependency you need to install : http://cython.org/release/Cython-0.22.tar.gz , uncompress it and

 $ sudo pip install -I Cython==0.21.2

[cryptog]

Which Ubuntu are you running?

14.04

EDIT: I am now on the same version as you but i am getting “TDev is not supported by your version of linux” now. I guess I cannot run your GUI on a remote machine (droplet).

EDIT2: I tried installing it on my local mac but I cannot get kivy to boot up for some reason.

[Sentinelrv]

Wow, these screenshots are getting me excited! This is the way to make it easier for people!

[woolly_sammoth]

@cryptog I think you could run it from a remote droplet but you’d have to forward X server over your ssh session to your local machine. Probably better to run it on your Mac anyway as it doesn’t need to be on the same machine as your running pool client. Did you install Cython as @desrever suggested?

@Sentinelrv, thanks. I hope it does that.

[cryptog]

Did you install Cython as @desrever suggested?

Yes I did.

In the mean time I have installed the package on Win.
I can get the GUI to open up now.
However, in monitoring mode, I input a payout address. Then I realized it is not necessary.
Then the next thing that happens is that I cannot get to input keys any more…

Edit: typos

[Cybnate]

This would also be a valuable addition for liquidbits.net. Good work, will start doing some testing with it.

@assistant tip 10 @woolly_sammoth

[woolly_sammoth]

Thank you very much.
I’ll do another release later that allows you to add config lines for exchanges other than Bittrex

@cryptog. Apologies for all these issues. I’ll try and replicate on my machine and see what fixes can be put in place.
