Title: Interest for a Live Coding Session for the Python Libraries?
Post by: xeroc on February 11, 2016, 10:11:22 am: Anyone interested in a live (recorded) coding session for the python libraries?

I could show:

* How to interface python with Bitshares
* How to interface with the DEX
* How to get notifications and react on them
* How to construct a basic real-time trading bot ..

What platform would be good to do something like this?
Any preferred time? (I am CET timezone)
Some other stuff you would like to know about the python libraries?

Just my thoughts

I am a fan of your code (you should know it by now, right?)
So any platform/time works for me (as long as I can type, as opposed of speaking)

"Some other stuff you would like to know about the python libraries?"
My question is how one call any other than history and database API's. (network API for example[I think that was the name of it])
The documentation is somewhat lacking for my taste (very novice ~~coder~~ user here)

Anyone interested in a live (recorded)

yes, Yes, YES!

I describe that idea few month ago here - https://bitsharestalk.org/index.php?topic=19625.0

I recommend livecoding.tv. It is good to schedule (on their website) planned stream, to have better attention.

preffered time? For sure - weekend. You should pick time when it's suits you. From where are you from?

livecoding.tv record and store every stream which is minimum 15 minutes long.

maybe you can also do a work around on the webwallet?

I am still trying to find a platform that can deal "live" coding with reasonable "lag" .. livecoding.tv didn't work well .

worst case would be that I record something and post it to youtube or so ..

no there is not ..
if you don't "register a callback" .. then the notification will be ignored ..

I am really surprised. With livecoding.tv I have lag something like 10s, no more. Do you have at least 1-2Mb/s upload?

10 seconds is "normal"?
I though that the technology today should be able to do way better than that ..

Post by: Thom on February 17, 2016, 12:15:24 am: What about the "Blue Dot" server fuzzy / joeyD setup for this exact purpose?

Our Big Blue Button Server for Desktop Sharing, Webcams and Pdf/Powerpoint presentations.
http://109.239.48.104/

That URL is currently dead, but this is the exact use case why fuzzy set this up. I don't think anyone has used it yet.

I'm interested in this - thx for making the time to put it together xeroc.

What needs to be done so that I can take a look next week? @fuzzy?
Title: Re: Interest for a Live Coding Session for the Python Libraries?
Post by: Thom on February 28, 2016, 07:04:26 pm: I sent JoeyD a PM a day or ago but he hasn't gotten back to me yet. Fuzzy said he's the guy that can make it happen, but he has some physical health limitations.

Have you had the time to capture a recording yet xeroc? The python trading bot would be an excellent example. Too bad we won't have that before tomorrow's liquidity event.
Title: Re: Interest for a Live Coding Session for the Python Libraries?
Post by: xeroc on February 29, 2016, 10:50:02 am: So .. I just tested Google Hangouts together with JonnyBitcoin and Ihashfury and that tool seems to do the trick quite nicely ..
I do understand that most chinese people might not be able to join this up .. but it might be possible to record the session so we can later share it somewhere else ..
Title: Re: Interest for a Live Coding Session for the Python Libraries?
Post by: betax on February 29, 2016, 11:58:22 am: your recording should saved to youtube afterwards https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ohlHn6Kt5YM&feature=youtu.be
Title: Re: Interest for a Live Coding Session for the Python Libraries?
Post by: Jansky on February 29, 2016, 03:56:21 pm: this would be very useful. This platform is constantly changing, and I (and probably others) have not had time to keep up with the ever-changing ways to interact with the platform programmatically. will the recording be posted here?
Title: Re: Interest for a Live Coding Session for the Python Libraries?
Post by: Thom on February 29, 2016, 05:41:15 pm: I've used g.hangouts before, I'm not a big fan. However, I do know it's possible to record the sessions on it, as I see plenty of them on youtube.

If it meets your needs xeroc I say go for it & make it happen with g.hangouts, then post the video where ever it's convenient for you & post a link t it here.

The session will take no more than 60 minutes and this is what I plan to do (let's see how far we can go):
- running witness-node
- running cli-wallet
- installation of python-graphene
- connecting with cli-wallet and calling methods
- connecting with witness-node and calling method (database api and others)

i tweeted the video ...material like that is an excellent promo for Bitshares, in general. i also targeted the python crowd, since it'd be wonderful to get more programmers into our community.

Good point, let me create a new release to have all the new features included ..

// edit:

Else, these things are required:
- a running cli-wallet with a wallet and a funded account imported (import_key <account_name> <active_private_key>)
- the cli-wallet has to expose an RPC API port (best would be to restrict it to localhost) ... http://docs.bitshares.eu/integration/apps/cliwallet.html
- installed graphenelibs version 0.3.5 (new) .. pip upgrade --user graphenelib

That's about it

Post by: Thom on March 23, 2016, 02:18:24 pm: This is why I dislike google hangouts. I haven't a clue how to link up with the hangout in progress, and the search tools don't help to locate it. Others I've been on in the past required an invite. Since I see none of that discussed here I presume that isn't necessary for this live coding session.

When I click the link I am not connected. Hmmm... ??? :'(
