if you use this repo:
https://github.com/bitshares/tapin

and point it to the testnet api (wss://node.testnet.bitshares.eu), it will setup a local faucet for testnet
For a private testnet?

Testnet:
faucet: https://faucet.testnet.bitshares.eu
prefix: TEST

Mainnet:
faucet: https://faucet.bitshares.eu
prefix: BTS

If you send a public key with the wrong prefix to the faucets, they will raise an error/exception.
Is that what you are looking for?

Could this worker help with this issue? https://github.com/bitshares/bitshares-ui/issues/1773
BitShares.eu will give you a warning (that will show nicely in the UI) in case you try to create an account with keys for a different blockchain.
From a faucet POV, we can only identify "wrong blockchain" by means of the "prefix" (the first characters in your public key, e.g. BTSxxxxxxx).
If someone sets up a private blockchain and uses the same BTS prefix, then there is no way if knowing the users wants those accounts to be created somewhere else - in fact, the keys are identical then!
Could you help with the documentation aspect of private faucet & testnet setup please? I hadn't realized that you'd get an error if you changed the prefix, in my past security research I was blocked by an inability to use a private faucet on my private testnet :/ I've probably registered 10 accounts on the public testnet instead of the private testnet during early attempts 😂

No, I'm hoping for improved documentation/support for private testnet faucet implmentation. Public testnet is not on the table for security research as it breaches HackTheDEX TOS.

Dear BTS voters,

as you may be aware, BitShares.eu (BitShares Europe) provides the reference wallet for the
software as hosted on github.com. The costs so far have been covered by the infrastructure
program operated by Blockchain Projects. The faucet has been funded by the reserve pool
and rewards from the referral program are directed to the BTS reserve pool. Thus, we managed
to operated at quite some profit for the BTS holders of over 100,000 BTS.

To make value proposition clearer to the BTS voters, we decided to remove Blockchain Projects
from the equation and apply for a worker proposal directly to fund the faucet maintenance,
operations and further development.

Constructive feedback is welcome

Supported.

As a remark to your worker I have only one thing:
"Keep in mind that bitshares.org and its subdomains are owned by a third party and are not contractually obligated to deploy the reference software."

On behalf of Move Institute and power given to me to act as a CEO when it comes to the business with BitShares blockchain, this is our official statement:

Move Institute (Zavod Premik) has 0 intentions now or in 2019 to start/run/operates a faucet. It will be purely focused on joining Committee and pursuing status of 2nd Escrow with accounting software such as BBF provides for the full transparency. On-boarding of new accounts has been successfully done over the past through BitShares Europe faucet, and I personally like the referral program through web-based software you've built. Worker for website and main domain bitshares.org were using it during tests through demo1.apasia.tech for the account create page, and again have 0 interest to replace a working solution or re-invent the wheel again.

Move Institute will sign-up for the referral program as operator/manager of bitshares.org -> upcoming account creation page within the website itself.

Best regards.
