Thanks for checking it out and letting me know its workin. Looks like i'll be able to add monitoring masternode 'active' status and send out notifications for that as well. Should be done tonight and will be ready for release in a couple days. Make sure to come back and get yourself a big upgrade!
I definitely will. I'll also make sure to grab your attention when Mac version is ready. I figure I'll name the layout using Minotaur's artwork "The Tungfa" hahahaha. Or maybe "The Tungfataur"... pretty catchy, eh?
Less traffic would be the polite way to handle things. Do you mean to parse "https://drk.mn/api/masternodes?"? Or do you mean from daemon and post on a personal server? I might be too dumb to field this response.Hello, if I parse the MN lists and expose it via a web socket, you will no longer have to poll the json server every minute. Instead, t could use web hooks and behave in an event driven way.
What your thoughts? Less traffic.
That would be very generous of you! Forgive my ignorance, but would that require you to know which masternodes are being monitored via the software and send specific info to each user? Or would it broadcast a signal for every masternode payment as well as every time a masternode is down? I really like the idea of not burdening the website traffic. However I am wondering if an event based message might not conflict with something I think is a strength in the way the program is coded. Once the balance has been obtained by the software, it will keep checking to see if it has increased over and over on loop. If there is an error such as internet outtage, as far as the program is concerned there has been no increase in balance so it keeps checking. Then when the error is resolved on the next check or in 40 checks, it sees if there is an increase and reacts. I'm wondering if internet outage would be an issue if it were reacting to a broadcasted message?
That did it, thanks for the detailed description!
Working great, keep up the good work buddy!
I think I'm gonna stick with the current setup for now but you've definitely got me thinking..
Man that is confusing I'm sorry about that! What version of windows are you using? I'm gonna have to think about this a bit. When you say it shows it initially but won't get the balance, have you or will you try waiting 1 more minute and see if it gets it the next time around? And you say its not saving the masternode list you enter when you hit update settings?
Windows 8 64bit. Tried compatibility mode. I've only tried 2 public addresses in it...but when I add one of the 2, it seems to break the program. I can add the first one fine...it works, updates, saves, comes back up..shows balance. Then when I add my 2nd one to the list, it adds below my first in the list and then shows up on top...it shows a last refresh, but no balance...so top shows balance, bottom (2nd) doens't show balance..but there is a timestamp (close to the first one). I click update, and then close...when I come back it, it shows only my first key with balance and all..but no sign of 2nd key in list or top. If I go to the ini file, its there separated by a -.
That's really weird. On the off chance that the ini file got out of whack, do you mind extracting just the ini file out of the zip and overwrite the one in the $MN$ folder and try again?
Hey what is the balance in the second address? is it exactly 1000 or less than 1000 or more?
Exactly 1000. About to try replacing ini file...
Hey , send some dust to it. send like .00002 drk to the address and it should be fine. This is a stupid bug that UdjinM6 helped me fix really easily but I haven't put the updated version out yet. I'll go ahead and get back to work on that and put it out soon.
