@Tippy R&D Post #69420
Edit: Ahh Crap! I meant to select no payout for this post. :/
Doing some more coding on the Tippy project tonight.
Moving onto version 0.0.8 and hoping to get the queue functions built for the tipping, voting and replies. Some more error handling and debugging is needed but it's getting there!
The service will be up and down and there is no guarantee balances will be saved at this time. Please remember this service is currently in the research and development phase and there are bugs to be expected! I take no responsibility for lost STEEM/SBD during the development process!
Hopefully will be able to get lots done over night and get the script finished up and tested so we can get a full launch and release by the end of this month. That is my goal!
You can check if the service is online by checking it's page @tippy! The profile text will tell ya. :)
Progress This Development Session
Having a pretty damn productive night coding. Some of the progress outlined below:
- Properly implemented fees on SBD and STEEM
- Added more statistics
- Fixed block height auto saving
- Cleaned up some functions
- Added updatestats function to handle statistics
- Improved deposit handling and balance updating
- Finished save block height on close functions
- Created admin section for the help command
- Various bug fixes and tweaks
- More console feedback added and debug output sprinkled in
Tippy is currently sitting just under 2000 lines of code at the moment. While it's not exactly finished yet it's certainly starting to get around the last bend to the home stretch. Pretty damn excited to get this service finished, tested and launched for the STEEM network. Still aiming for end of month launch at this point. :)
The main part left to do is implement queues for tips, votes and replies and then a shitload of bug testing and after that the tippy project may very well be ready to launch... Very excited.

@tippy tip steemitqa 0.001 steem
GOT IT! LOL
Woot
Gotta try and hack together the queue functions so we can process multiple tips requests at once.
Right on! Yes, figured there would be a need for a queue function for sure to process multiple tips. Let me know what kind of help you need I'm around! exciting times!
Sounds good. Might need a few folks to help me spam tip calls when I get this queue function built.
@tippy balance
Try again man?
@tippy balance
Nice. That worked.. May have found a bug in the resync code. Still lots of coding and testing left..!
COOL! Glad I could help. So fitting. 0 STEEM , 0 SBD . Sound like my life right now lol.
Debating allowing users to fund others accounts.. Thoughts?
Ah, this is great idea. PayitForward kind of stuff. SURE!
It's a great idea and the platform will be nice!
@tippy balance This is fun
Nice! you found a bug by the look of it.. Half way implementing a new balance / stats function.

Hey, @klye, I have to admit I stalked you using steemdb to find this thread, and yep, found a bug. But can I ask you an unrelated question? I would like to ask something to a bot-designer ... and you are a prominent one. Thanks.
What you need man? :)
I know of only one way to send you a private comment (with the wallet and a hash-tag in the memo), but I have a situation that goes like this. I am new and relatively small SP, I'd like to propose an idea that will take a lot of resources... and I'd actually like to spring the idea on an influential member like yourself as it pertains heavily to witnesses and spam and the entire steem system. Can I send this in an email? Thanks! It's detailed.
Are you on steemit.chat by chance?
Come into room #klye if ya are. Not keen on posting my email for spam bots to grab. :)
That is what @papa-pepper told me. I use it some, but let me see if I can enter that channel. I thought it was sort of public still. Anyway, I could post it as a URL too and then take it down. Let me try the chat and see.
Thanks, man. I don't post my e-mail much, either... not since about 1999.

I'll be in there in a few moments. :)
Thanks @klye, I'm rich now! LOL.
@tippy balance
It's supposed to give you a reply saying it created your account the first time sadly.. looking into it now!
Uruiamme I'm going to delete your balance file (which holds no balance) ... Can you call the balance call again in like 30 seconds? Testing to see if I fixed that bug you found. :) Thanks man.
@tippy balance What if I post a crazy comment on the same line? $#@()
Damnit.. That didn't do it. Thanks for the help anyways man!
that's a good bot! Never crash when you parse an unknown input... like Photoshop and Illustrator (latest versions) do with a malformed freakin' SVG file. I found that out working on my steem idea today. LOL @tippy BALancE
It's a labour of love at this point.. I remember when it wasn't even able to reply..
The bot parses the whole content and looks to see if it's got a valid command. Shouldn't be any issue to have a tippy command anywhere in any comment.
:)
YO! The final release looks closer and closer!
Yeah man! I'm actually pretty pleased with my progress so far this week. :)
