Hey there! I want to make a YACoin faucet, and I got the webhosting, however I was wondering, how to make a faucet? Are there any scripts publicly availible to make this easily?

I can sell you my script for a fee, and it should work with YACoin since it is based off bitcoind. Pm me for a price...

No thanks, it's already costing me to give it away, and it's to gain interest for YAcoin, I don't really have anything to pay for it.

Uh - I'm sorry, I can't say I'm an expert with these things, I want to give some BTC, what's an RPC server?

Yacoin and Bitcoin work the same way. If you tell them to, they will run something called an JSON-RPC server. On Bitcoin, it's done by using bitcoind or bitcoin-qt -server.
On Yacoin it's yacoin-qt -server.

JSON-RPC allows the wallet to be accessed programmatically. It's needed for any application that handles bitcoin.

Oh, no I don't have an RPC server :/. Is one required? Also, do I need to buy one?

You need one. Making a faucet without one is impossible. You can just run it on a VPS or on your own computer if it's on 24/7.

It is a security harden script runs on many web sites, and has never been hacked. People who are going to do this for free, for someone that doesn't have a programming background maybe just throw an insecure site together. That will lead to hacks and that is very sad, that you will not spend a little more to someone that make sure you have a great faucet, when your ready for someone to do this the right way. PM me...

I don't have an VPS, I can run it on my own PC, not 24/7 though - would it be a problem if I turned it on and off every now and then? Or would requests get clogged up and everything go wrong when I start it up again? Or would it just process them?

I have a JSON-RPC server you guys could use.
It's on my VPS.

230 days uptime ^_^

Very stable. I will donate it to the YAC cause.

What you can do is write have a cron job that runs a PHP script every so often. This gets unpaid faucet requests from a DB and sends them. If the server is offline, it just doesn't go, and checks again next time it runs. So, requests would clog up, but it would work fine.

That would be great! I can provide webhosting and some YAcoins at first to fund, but I'm not that rich in BTC/YAC though so I can't do a lot, we'll need donations later on to keep it running. There's also a 100YAC bounty though so that's good.
EDIT : Of course the bounty would be sent to the faucet.

Are the RPC commands for Bitcoin and Yacoin the same?
