RE: Brainstorming Gridcoinstats Ideas Thread [25 SBD in Bounty]

in #gridcoinstats7 years ago (edited)

The basics are pretty basics for anyone to create by their own. I see no need in open-sourcing a project that is just a small script.

Clearly it's not, otherwise there would be others out there already. I've asked multiple times over the last two months for anything that has the ability to let me know how to migrate some of the blockchain to SQL so I can have some fun exploring it. You know how many takers there have been on providing advice? One; 1! That one person said go find an open source block-chain explorer. I've spent hours trying to figure out how to port stuff over from other blockchains without success; 1) because I'm not a techie and 2) because things are often written with Linux instructions so it's a challenge to figure out how to move it over to WAMP.

And therein lives the challenge: people like you are very talented, and basic building blocks help those that are looking to learn more to be able to start out. It's rather unfortunate that more people don't see it that way. I'm very strong in SQL and structured data; getting something from JSON or whatever the hell our blockchain is stored in - that's a completely different battle. I suspect there are many people like that that have strong suits in certain places too and would benefit greatly from examples that are able to help them. The same challenge exist with GRC in general right now when it comes to trying to modify the UI with QT maker, etc.. So unfortunate...

Sort:  

@cm-steem (customminer) has made some open-source scripts that you can check out surrounding scraping the Gridcoin wallet.

https://github.com/grctest/GRC-Haskell

Got Choco NuGet, Jq, and Haskell installed. Cloned the repo. And trying to follow the instructions, but running into various compiling errors - just like GRC/Qt .

I'll post to the GitHub if I don't figure out what dependences are required because I think that's it.

Thank you for the suggestion.
