[bytemaster]

Bounty still up?

No idea, but you can do it yourself pretty easily with either the client or the tools in this thread: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=2448.0

A GUI would be nice.

still needed?

How about getting this done, seems like a vital service.

Created an JSON API for all AGS-balances which will be used in the tool.

Good progress!

So now what's left is a crossplatform QT GUI code quering bitcoind or protosharesd for the addresses, and displaying the balance as in the json?

Yes, something like that: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=2448.0
I think testz qualifies for that bounty

I can do it (and will begin)

Finished working on the blockchain parser, Call for Feedback here: https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=1989.0

Will start working on a wallet-checker now.

As long as I do not have to reveal my private keys a service works well for me.

It only needs the public keys to query the wallet. I will rewrite the parser to make RPC calls.

One more question, do you want a GUI application? Command line or daemon would be possible too.

I would like this tool for the average person sending in donations to track their shares.  GUI is probably best.

Ok will improve my AGS parser now and use that as data base.

[barwizi]

The idea is to collect the total of all transactions to the donation addresses from the wallet, then using the dates ,  calculate how much AGS one has. I would recommend donschoe for this one.

Thanks for the recommendation. As I already have a blockchain parser, I can take on this one.

Reading the blockchain locally comes with some issues.

• It takes ages (especially for bitcoin blockchain which is huge!)
• You need to reindex the whole blockchain with the flag -txindex=1 -reindex=1 (It takes some time ...)
• It takes ages ...

I could provide a web-API (including backup server if something goes wrong) which provides preparsed results and create a local QT program which allows entering addresses or reading wallets.

Or is it an requirement to work client side only with just the local blockchain and wallet?

I don't think client side is a requirement, in fact your solution sounds quicker and more convenient for users. Since it not an actual wallet yet, there are no control and privacy issues. bytemaster will chip in when he can, but i believe your idea is the best way to go.

i am busy with other projects, but if noone takes it up end of day. i will try it out.

Assuming I have a wallet.dat for AGS or PTS, I would like a tool that will report my current AGS balance.

I would guess that this would be implemented by dumping your addresses then fetching the full AGS database from one of the provided services and totaling all balances.  The easier this is for someone to do the better.

Increasing the bounty on this to 150 PTS.
