Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

decrediton

Build Status ISC License

decrediton is a cross-platform GUI for decred written in node.js using Electron.

Installation

Currently decrediton is available on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

Decrediton will NOT use or in any way disrupt the wallet file you may already be using at this time.

Download the decrediton release for your operating system on decred/decred-binaries.

On macOS, Ubuntu (14.04 LTS kernel 3.16 and later), and recent Debians, there should be no additional dependencies needed.

On Fedora or similar distros you may need to install the libXScrnSaver package if you see this error:

error while loading shared libraries: libXss.so.1

You can install this on a recent Fedora with the command:

sudo dnf -y install libXScrnSaver

On linux you will need to decompress the package:

tar -xvzf decrediton-X.X.X.tar.gz

and then run the file:

./decrediton

This will start dcrd and dcrwallet for you.

On macOS, double-click the .dmg file, drag the .app to your Applications folder. Double click on Decrediton.app to start.

You can also install via brew cask:

brew cask install decrediton

From there follow the on screen instructions to setup your wallet.

Options

When running a release version, there are a few options available.

To see additional debug information (including the output of dcrd and dcrwallet) run:

decrediton --debug

To pass additional arguements to dcrwallet (such as to increase the logging level run:

decrediton --extrawalletargs='-d=debug'

Developing

Due to potential compatibility issues, for now, all work should be done with electron 1.4.15.

You need to install dcrd, dcrwallet and dcrctl.

This has been tested on Linux and OSX.

Adjust the following steps for the paths you want to use.

mkdir code
cd code
git clone https://github.com/decred/decrediton.git
cd decrediton
yarn
mkdir bin/
cp $GOPATH/bin/dcr* bin/
yarn dev

Setting up your development environment

The following steps will help you configure your decrediton development environment and reduce future startup times.

Wallet

When you launch decrediton, you will be prompted to select a wallet to use. Select your wallet or create a new one using the in-app wizard. Be sure to save your seed and make your password memorable.

Decred Node

It will be helpful to you to run the Decred node in a separate process and simply attach to it between decrediton restarts. In order to see the advanced daemon configuration options you open your config.json and set the daemon_start_advanced flag to true as follows:

"daemon_start_advanced": true,

Note: Your config.json file is located in the following directory(s)

Windows - C:\Users\<your-username>\AppData\Local\Decrediton\config.json

OSX - $HOME/Library/Application\ Support/Decrediton/config.json

Linux - ~/.config/decrediton/config.json

Run the following to start the Decred daemon in a standalone terminal window:

Windows - dcrd --testnet -u USER -P PASSWORD --rpclisten=127.0.0.1:19119 --rpccert=C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Dcrd\rpc.cert

OSX - dcrd --testnet -u USER -P PASSWORD --rpclisten=127.0.0.1:19119 --rpccert=$HOME/Library/Application\ Support/Dcrd/rpc.cert

Linux - dcrd --testnet -u USER -P PASSWORD --rpclisten=127.0.0.1:19119 --rpccert=~/.dcrd/rpc.cert

You can connect to this daemon in Advanced Startup => Different Local Daemon Location and input the parameters requested. Note that all the parameters needed are present in the command you used to start the node for your respective system.

Windows

On windows you will need some extra steps to build grpc. This assumes you are using msys2 with various development tools (copilers, make, ect) all installed.

Install node from the official package https://nodejs.org/en/download/ and add it to your msys2 path. You must install the same version of node as required for Linux and OSX (6.9.5).

Install openssl from the following site: https://slproweb.com/products/Win32OpenSSL.html

From an admin shell:

npm install --global --production windows-build-tools

Then build grpc as described above.

Building the package

You need to install dcrd, dcrwallet and dcrctl.

To build a packaged version of decrediton (including a dmg on OSX and exe on Windows), follow the development steps above. Then build the dcr command line tools:

cd code/decrediton
mkdir bin
cp `which dcrd` bin/
cp `which dcrctl` bin/
cp `which dcrwallet` bin/
npm install
npm run package

Building release versions

Linux

You need to make sure you have the following packages installed for the building to work:

  • icns2png
  • graphicsmagick
  • rpm-build
npm run package-linux

After it is finished it will have the built rpm, deb and tar.gz in the releases/ directory.
