Blurtopian Dev: BlurtKey v1.2.1 Release - 2022/02/13

in blurtopian •  3 years ago 

BANNER_2048x512 _post - MF.png

This is an update on BlurtKey's development. It includes two changes:

  • Display of Incoming Delegations
  • Display of Next Power Down Schedule

Let's look into the details of each.

1. Updates

1.1. Display of Incoming Delegations

@saboin added the API to BlurtJS, he took the trouble of going through @jga's changes here and got the method and the parameters to add the API.

I copied and merged it to @blurtopian/dblurt.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: As of this writing, this API will only work for RPC nodes running on 0.7.2 and later. Check the node you're connecting to via https://ecosynthesizer.com/blurt/nodes.

1.2. Display of Next Power Down Schedule

This was inspired by our very own blurtwallet. I think it's convenient to know in relative time when you can expect your liquid BLURT. I tried to use the same library - react-intl - as what BlurtWallet uses, but I just wasn't able to get it to work. As such, I resorted to moment.js.


Codes are available in this PR:

https://gitlab.com/blurt/openblurt/blurtopian/blurtkey-mobile/-/merge_requests/23

2. App Demo

Here's a demo for iOS from this release.

3. Download Links

  1. Download from Play Store
  2. Download from App Store (via TestFlight)

4. Impediments Encountered

There were a couple of issues I encountered while working on this, specifically publishing the changes in dblurt. Since I'm working on a Windows machine and dblurt's build works on Linux, I had to build the codes in a Ubuntu VPS before publishing to to npm.

I had to troubleshoot what was causing the changes I made on the codes not reflecting on the published/minified version.

5. Next

  1. Resolve the items raised by App Store for BlurtKey to be released in the App Store
    1. Guideline 3.1.1 - Business - Payments - In-App Purchase
    2. Guideline 3.1.5 - Business - Payments - Cryptocurrencies
  2. Re-enable the Browser so that login and upvote can be done within the app
  3. Display time remaining for next powerdown (similar to blurtwallet)
  4. Investigate why the computed tx fee is not the actual liquid BLURT deducted from wallet balance

Hello @eastmael, people never get a clear understanding of what you guys are doing behind the scene until we start seeing it manifesting on the chain and I'm very excited to come and across this update from you.

When the RPC sync had issue yesterday, I read a conversation which @saboin had on discord with some people who were concerned about their inability to operate with their account like they used to do.

All of you are doing so well and it surely makes Blurt to be progressive. Kudos to y'all. I'm glad that @onchain-curator is here to be part of this progression.

Glad to have you on-board. Yes, it takes time and effort to describe the issues. As such, we need to find balance in communicating and continue development/resolving issues.

I may not be able to express it clearly here but I appreciate this feedback.

I can't even save myself when it comes to coding and the integral tech stuff you and your crew are doing, but I can do my bits in terms of onchain interaction.

Thanks for sharing the update and keeping us informed. Assymetry of information can cause negative ripple effect and that's why I appreciate the effort you all make to keep us informed about every little update.

I hope our paths cross again as I explore the chain in search of decent contents.

has anyone else stopped being able to use blurt on their mobile by the way? I can now only use it on my computer or iPad, which is a bit limiting it just won't actually post on my phone browser.

It may have been related with nodes crashing? I’m doing this from an iPhone.

It gave me a HTTP 502 error at first. I retried and it posted successfully.

I've had it for a few weeks. On the iPad/laptop it does sometimes freeze but then comes back after a day or a few hours but the phone just will not post, comment or upvote not sure why

Really stunned to see the way Blurt ecosystem is going. A year back I was using Blurt but was not very confident. Few days I came back here because of @actifit and the developments are absolutely fantastic!

You're doing really great job. Every passing day you're adding some features to the app and it is only becoming more affective. I'm looking forward to see your next updates. Thank you sir for your regular dedication for our community!
