Nxt full feature clients - progress tracking thread

[cc001]

Here's my Nxt client, feel free to add a short description to the original starter post:

Still in development, you may find some bugs, but wanted to show off this version:

Wow, looks great, works very good.
I found a bug though: It hangs (and does not execute or finish) when you want to cancel an ask/bid order from the "Open Orders" menu.

Btw: did you think about using Websockets?
@Jean-Luc: Does the server provide Websocket accessibility?

thanks for letting me know about the bug, fixed in debug, not yet uploaded though.

I really would like to use websockets, but that would require the server (jetty) to support it. I have asked Jean-Luc about this but he doesn't know much about it, I'm sure once he reads up on it he'll be able to implement something like that though, would be great :-)

Here is version 2.0 of my Windows NXT client "NXT Solaris".

It is now open-source. Source code is included in the download archive.


Changelog
-The open-source version now is open source. :O) Source code is included in the download.
-The whole GUI now feels much slicker.
-NXT Solaris no longer works on and downloads the complete blockchain, but only the fetches transactions for the personal accounts
-Closed source version: Dropped the blockchain explorer functionality
-Added a market graph (price and volume) for assets
-Added support for startForging and stopForging API requests (these fall back to a web lockAccount/unlockAccount request if the API calls are not available)
-Included an option in the NXTSolaris Starter to run against the testnet (automatically keeps the testnet and prod. settings/data apart)

4.) Release Windows version (32 and 64 bit) based on FireMonkey. [DONE]
5.) Implement new features from the TODO list [DONE]
6.) Release source-code for FireMonkey Windows version (February 16th, 2014 latest) [DONE]
7.) Implement new features from the TODO list
8.) OSX compatibility changes
9.) Release OSX version based on FireMonkey.
10.) Release source code for FireMonkey OSX version.

TODO list
-Offer a simple and advanced GUI, with the simple GUI targeted at new users
-Implement client side Curve25519 encryption/signing
-Arbitrary message encryption

We have got around completing the first version of our nxtManager windows client.
Our aim is to have it as simple as possible windows client that will require no computer knowledge. We want to be as easy as to be used from our grand-parents.
To accomplish this we have created a windows installer containing the Jetty Server, the current NRS 0.7.5 and jre 7.2 (java) in one simple install wizard.
The program has 2 options one is to unlock an existing account and one is to create a new account. We wanted to make sure that when people create an account they can not use less than 35 characters.
Obviously there is no creation of an account but we thought the human psychology will make most people to click create new account when they want a new account and they will be forced to enter more characters.
This is part of our none computer literate audience approach.

All files including installer and source are available for download here:github.com/BaiMangal/nxtManager
nxtManagerInstall.msi will install everything need for the client to run on a windows PC in a well known wizard type of instalation.

nxtManager is developed using C#, .net 4, WPF and is fully open source.

Minimum system requirement:
Windows XP Service Pack 3
1GB RAM
200MB free disk space

The first version of nxtManager contains the main functionality needed to perform simple tasks as:
-Simple windows msi install
-Asynchronous processes to allow it working fast and in real time.
-Open/Unlock/Create Nxt account. Create Account option will force users to put 40 characters at least.
-Forging
-Send NXT
-Create/Check Alias URI

Here are some screen shots:
Unlock Account: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nf3bupz6k25vtjr/unlockaccount.png
Account Transactions:https://www.dropbox.com/s/v604yfntpfdj7we/accounttransactions.png
Alias:https://www.dropbox.com/s/79mnl0cleew9weq/alias.png
Blocks:https://www.dropbox.com/s/hcjzse9polqwrrb/blocks.png
Peers:https://www.dropbox.com/s/gpxrcrg4ebxjx6q/peers.png
Console and Synching Blockchain:https://www.dropbox.com/s/3mz96h0ivlprxqr/synch.png

We will try to keep it up to date with the constantly evolving Nxt protocol.

More donations would be greatly appreciated and allow us to dedicate more resources to the development and bug fixing.

Look in sig 

[marcus03]

Here is version 2.1 of my Windows NXT client "NXT Solaris".


Changelog
-Compatibilty fixes for NRS 0.8.x
-Implemented Curve25519 algorithm:
  * NXT Solaris is now a bit like "Electrum for NXT" (a thin client that does not download the complete blockchain, connecting to untrusted NRS nodes)
  * It is now safe to connect to public NRS nodes (except for forging).
  * As default, NXT Solaris no connects to a random public node.
  * Currently a static list of public nodes that allow API calls from anyone from the text file public_nodes.txt is used.
  * NRS and Java are now longer distributed with NRS Solaris.
  * You will get a warning in the secret input dialog if the secret is transmitted over http to the remote NRS node (only with start/stop forging).
  * If you want to forge, run your own NRS instance locally and set up NXT Solaris to connect to your instance.
-Since there is no batch mode in the NRS API:
  * Details for peers are no longer retrieved as default
  * A maximum of 50 (yet unkown) transactions per account are fetched from the NRS node whenever there is a new block
-Fixed null exchange rates when www.cryptocoincharts.info is down

big to see all the great work done here! thanks

[marcus03]

I moved  the date for the reward for clients to a later date, tentatively on April 1 and add nxtfreerider in the front page. Thanks.

Out of curiousity: For what reason?

[Eadeqa]

  * Currently a static list of public nodes that allow API calls from anyone from the text file public_nodes.txt is used.
  * NRS and Java are now longer distributed with NRS Solaris.
  * You will get a warning in the secret input dialog if the secret is transmitted over http to the remote NRS node (only with start/stop forging).

"Forging" buttons should be disabled by default if the user is not connected to localhost (or 192.68.*.*)  IP

That will eliminate the risk of new users sending their passwords to public nodes

[jjaquarius]

Full feature clients should be self-contained application which support most of NXT's network features such as alias sytem, decentralized asset exchange, voting system, arbitrary messages. Ideally, they should be run across platforms or at least support Window or Mac.

Currently NXT client is browser-based NRS (NXT reference software ?) which support basic functions such as send/ receive; block statistics etc. but it is quite awkward to carry asset exchange operation in that interface. So NRS would be phased out gradually when we have some full-feature clients running stable.

This thread will track the progress of works on building full feature clients for NXT. Some may question why we have that many clients in progress at the same time. The answer simply is that: each developers have different ideas of how a NXT client should be and we actually encourage a decentralized approach to building NXT econ-system;
So eventually there should be more than one NXT full feature clients.

Here we are. These are NXT full feature clients in the progress at the moment. You are welcome to contact with the developers to make suggestions or to donate. Let me know if you are planning to make another NXT full- feature clients and I will add it here.

Hi NXT

We  identified the Crypto Currency community's  need for  security, usability and multicurrency support.  We are happy to Introduce our Omniwallet that will be a perfect solution,
The Omniwallet is indeed  a new type of web wallet that combines Security, Usability and Multy Currency support.
It is currently in an early development stage and it is expected to significantly progress in the upcoming weeks. This is the time to contribute to its development.
To understand better, please visit the following link:

Looking forwart to hearing from you

thnx for mac versions! 

Here's my Nxt client, feel free to add a short description to the original starter post:

Still in development, you may find some bugs, but wanted to show off this version:

(Btw, totally untested in IE, better use a different browser if you find UI quirks there).

http://nxtra.org/nxt-client/

As you'll see it's a web client. It is my hope that this might one day replace the official NRS web client now seen at http://localhost:7874 but that is up to Jean-Luc and CFB to decide.
...

Great design on the homepage! Haven't used/opened the client yet... don't have a testnet acct.

FreeRider beta0.1 released:





git clone https://github.com/l8orre/FreeRider

cd FreeRider

./nxtFreeRider.py



Also available at:

https://www.quicknxt.com/FreeRider




















  



I believe that nxtFreeRider will make a valuable and distinct contribution to the nxt clients ecosystem.

Features/Attributes:

- python3/PyQt4: fully open source, code inspection extremely easy rapid development/modification possible by anybody,
- script language: no binary that must either be trusted or compiled from source
- developer tool: includes api access window for testing, new api calls can be added very fast
- using QThreadpool, query threads can be used for NRS backend load testing
- Focus on Asset Exchange
- python provides scipy: scipy has become the single most powerful and versatile scientific computation environment available
- can be used as a tool to analyse node behaviour and counteract malicious attacks on the network.

The availability of scipy provides a unique feature that no other client has - I have the impression that this aspect is a bit underrated so far.






edit: there was a minor bug in the 'moneySent' confirmation LED - sending money worked, but the LED flashed RED instead of green - FIXED!

[marcus03]
