Title: [CONTENT NEEDED]Developing a bitcoin related open source software library
Post by: bitkapp on May 22, 2013, 03:49:12 PM
We have started development on a Bitcoin related open source software library. This library will contain a collection of tested open source scripts, small programs, software and apps.

At the moment we have very little content. This is why we are asking for open source developers to post their programs on this topic so that we can upload it onto our website. The post should be in the following format,

Name/Organization:
Source code download Link:
Small Description:


We test the programs as part of the uploading process (to ensure useful, working programs are uploaded). If we find any bugs they will be reported to the author of the program.


We also have a few ideas for the future concerning developing some android mobile applications and developing a Bitcoin charting web application, that we intend to make it so that you can easily implement it on your own website.

You can visit us at www.bitkapp.com (http://www.bitkapp.com)


PS: I am doing this for fun and to get involved in the Bitcoin community and idea, however there are web server related costs. That is why we ask to support us if you think our idea is good and useful. You can do this at 1Bc9Jr8rxcp3be4DUHfVdSh3sZ9My9pqog Any help will be greatly appreciated. If we can raise 0.5BTC we can run the website for about a year (which is enough to really develop this idea).

Pywallet seems like the swiss knife of bitcoin wallets: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=34028.0 . Some use cases (from that post):

* Import Vanitygen keys
* Delete 0/unconfirmed transactions
* Recover Namecoins (and testnetcoins) sent to Bitcoin addresses
* Create a deterministic wallet (using a passphrase)
* Create a deterministic wallet (using a file)
* Broadcast offline transactions
* Create a Bitcoin/*coin address from scratch
* Recover a wallet/deleted keys

In any case, it's been very useful to me in various cases, and is easily my most-used third-party bitcoin script.

Pywallet
Seems interesting. Is there anything like that in PHP as well?

I have my own scripts for dealing with combining transaction outputs and reducing due transaction fees:

Note however that they are mainly intended for my own use, and while they work for me, I would not consider them "mature" or "stable".  Feel free to reference or include them if you like (as long as the GPL is honoured).  If you decide to include, let me know so I can keep you updated in case I make some changes some time in the future.
