PHP Bitcoin Development Kit | v0.0.46_pre15 | Alpha | BitcoinDevKit.com

[Xenland]

I was getting ready to build my own function set because yours wasn't connecting to bitcoind for some odd reason while my personal test connection was having no problem, but I'm gonna try your updated script first

I was having a problem with my public vps on my script and the issue seemed to be in jsonRPCClient.php as something was going wrong with credentials(The solution in my case was to have the BDK connect through the public ip address). Was this the similar issue to yours? I'd be happy to see your successful code and merge it into the scripts if you don't mind.

What is the best you for you to keep in contact Xenland?

Basically, while trying to open a test connection using the bitcoin_open_connection() function, the array that gets returned is -1 and Null.

While I am able to retrieve the full getinfo using the jsonRPCClient.php file that was included in your package.

In both cases, I was connecting through the public domain name and not 127.0.0.1.

Edit: I just uploaded the new library file and changed nothing else at all, I have a successful connection now through your file.

You can always contact me by skype or email.

Glad to hear it is working now, Cheers mate!

I'll continue to use it and see how it does in my development environment. I think I could do a lot with it

[Xenland]

 I uploaded v0.0.40 (Comes with the shopping cart functions)



Still working on the "remove product id from cart" function will come in the future.

[Xenland]

I've uploaded example #3 it demonstrates the bdk_prove_coin_ownership() function Previously known as: bdk_login_with_coin_address() function

Try it out let me know what you think.
http://www.bitcoindevkit.com/examples/example3.php

[Xenland]

Security issue in bdk_prove_coin_ownership() has been found.
It only recognizes when the bitcoin_validate_message() successfully runs but it didn't recognize weather the message is valid or not, in version 0.0.42 this is updated and published.

[Xenland]

Some major fixes done to bdk_verify_message() (Mostly helps consistency and more accurate checking -- before a lot of messages were coming out invalid when they were infact valid)

The other major fix is done in bdk_prove_coin_ownership() it now uses the updated verify message fixes and now it will sha256 a message to compare against with the signature (Look in the code to see what I mean exactly).

Alpha Release Candidate v0.0.43

Report to github for bug reports

UPDATES: Goals and road map posted http://www.bitcoindevkit.com/aboutus/goals.php

[Xenland]

An feature update was pushed in v0.0.44 where a generated receipt can contain any additional information visit the wiki page to see the changes, code is already published as well. https://github.com/Xenland/Bitcoin-Development-Kit/wiki/BDK-Generate-Receipt

For those who don't already know this library only relies on Bitcoin and nothing else(referring to databases) so with that in mind we use the "labels" that the Bitcoin client provides as a storage database and with the new updates one could create a storable receipt like the following

{
    "checksum": "ab37bc6866e253c5ce3ba7e7c91b7299140630afb7197e38e5a63f1e8b8b4f86",
    "timestamp_generated": 1357981122,
    "amount_due_in_satoshi": 100000000,
    "products_in_receipt": [
        "1"
    ],
    "additional_info": {
        "email": "joe@joe.com",
        "refundAddress": "16oLFeSgUPFB1vm3LZuXHTXztyt5mDMsJV"
    }
}

UPDATES: just opened up shop, I'm testing out the BDK library in a real life setting and am selling some products I got for cheap (I will by posting up photos by me instead of the ones taken from the internet by tomorrow, its too late right now for me to finish). http://www.bitcoindevkit.com/shop/shop.php

Has anyone been able to use this with blockchain.info API? I am having issues using the BDK bitcoin_get_received_by_address().

I am getting a Return Status Error of 102. I have isolated it to it being a an invalid address (even though the address is valid).

I think the issue might be that the blockchain.info API returns a JSON Object for validateaddress and I do not see anything in the BDK that converts the JSON Object to a PHP Array?

Get Received By Address only works if you have the private key in your Bitcoin client. The BDK is aimed at making Bitcoin client easier to communicate with and to intuitively apply math with out worries of precision or rounding issues.

How ever if your using the Blockchain.info api in php you would want to use the "json_decode()" function and then you can use the php array that is returned with the BDK library.

More updates to come in late March/Early April.

[Xenland]

The website has been updated and there should be absolutely no broken links and no more "redirects to HTML pages".

http://BitcoinDevKit.com

Also I purchased http://BitcoinWebKit.com and in the future that BitcoinWebKit.com domain will redirect to the PHP BDK and the Bitcoindevkit.com will redirec to a "centeral" selection website to pick which Bitcoin Dev Kit language you would like (BDK for C++, BDK for Qt, BDK for JS, BDK for Jquery, etc )

[Xenland]

I pushed dev version v0.0.45 which completes the function bitcoin_list_transactions();

https://github.com/Xenland/Bitcoin-Development-Kit/commit/2289a84843c001f33f76ac54e5e70c6c79801178

[Xenland]

When the BDK for PHP is completed (as in beta) and pre-orders for videos/tutorial/scripts pack is available, upon pre-ordering (and when purchasing is available), when payment is received you will get a Bitcoin digital receipt for your pre-order.
You will tangibly receive a "Message", "signature", and "Bitcoin address" so you have verifiable proof that you have purchased the digital download pack of goodies. This Bitcoin address to verify the signature/message against will be known as the official BDK for php address and thus will be "static"(non-changing). This way if by some means that the "purchase list" in the web site database is lost or destroyed then the customers can give me their signatures/messages and I will verify against the Bitcoin address and then validate the amount of Bitcoins received.

[Xenland]

I pushed development version v0.0.46_pre2
Send many
has been tested and is working on my end. let me know if you have any problems

https://github.com/Xenland/Bitcoin-Development-Kit/wiki/%5BTutorial%5D-Getting-Started

Helps you mates getting started with programming with the BDK for PHP


Edited Updates:
Removed the file dependencies.tar.gz from the repo.

More Edited Updates:
It is recommended according to the getting started page to run your Bitcoin client with -checklevel=6.

EVEN MORE! UPDATES:
http://www.bitcoindevkit.com/examples.php
Examples are back online with version 0.8.0


Heads updates:
The BDK advanced scripts (purchasable by pre-order) will include examples of BDK + Ajax using Jquery.

[Xenland]

For those whom have been waiting I'm working on the tutorials for Windows 7 + XAMPP + BDK + Bitcoin these tutorials will be available for free online with super low quality video and medium quality sound, if you want to see whats going on you can purchase any "pack" that advertises "Presentation Videos" in the pricing options obviously upon purchase you get the full resolution of videos and the highest of quality of sound. You will receive only presentation videos that correspond to the scripts that are included, meaning if you purchase the "Donor" pack you will receive only the videos that go with the "Simple Example Scripts" that come with it and to give a comparison if you purchased the "Enterprise" pack you will receive all the videos because it comes with the simple & advanced scripts.

I might also note that it won't be just Windows I will be covering, You will also receive both Windows AND Linux video tutorials, as it is recommended to run a Bitcoin website under Linux anyways, but Windows has the perks of learning something new more quickly.

Pre Purchase will be available after the 24th of this month of March.
