The two-factor authentication plugin was merged yesterday.
There will be a beta release next week.


this is getting exciting. With the two-factor authentication, this will make electrum even more secure to prevent authorized access to wallets and loss of fund. Just wondering where can I get the beta release?  Wink

This is definitely a thread full of experts.
 
I am a year late, but I am really getting interested in the Electrum wallet.

I am stuck trying to determine how to talk to the Electrum wallet. Via JSON, I am guessing over a ethernet socket?   I would like to have my webpage grab new addresses from the Electrum wallet and assign labels to the addresses.  Are there good tools for this?  How would I go about doing this?  Can you point me to an example? ex

I would be willing to pay for a writeup or try and start documenting a walkthrough for how the api works, but I really need to be pointed to the correct place, or be able to see some examples of this in action.

You can do electrum listaddresses, then choose an address and do electrum setlabel 1MyAddr.. mylabel

You can do electrum listaddresses, then choose an address and do electrum setlabel 1MyAddr.. mylabel


How are the API calls done?   Can i use JSON to a port?  or is this strictly a python call?

What is the expected parameters for each call?  These are the things I'd like to have documented.

Is there a plugin that makes these commands available over an ethernet port?  If that doesn't exist, Should it?  Would it be helpful to have a bounty put up to have one made?

These are python calls.
I just added the list of commands and parameters to the documentation wiki: https://electrum.orain.org/wiki/List_of_commands

There is also an electrum daemon, that is be accessed with JSON over a port.
However, it has different commands (see stratum)

I am using the window complied version of Electrum 2.0 beta. When I try to restore an wallet and select the Trezor hardware wallet the program closes. Please advice or direct me to some online documentation of I am doing something wrong. Thanks.

thanks for noticing that.
I fixed it here: https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/commit/271a27fc83121e206631ebac95490973f6e96adb
next binaries will have the fix.

However, it has different commands (see stratum)

Great!  I'm assuming that the daemon is the standalone portable version, correct?  Electrum-2.0b2.exe    or is it merchant.py?

Could you provide a link to the commands? or the .py file these commands are listed?   I know stratum is a protocol used to expose services.  I am familiar with the details of the stratum mining service as a protocol to transport mining information from bitcoind to a pool.  ( I wrote a proxy)

Best thing I found (120 days old) was this ->  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=110795.msg1833852#msg1833852  and actually, that looks like the stratum is used to talk to the Electrum server, not the client.

If you type electrum help, you'll see a list of API calls to the wallet.
You can do electrum listaddresses, then choose an address and do electrum setlabel 1MyAddr.. mylabel

I thought more about this, and I was wondering...  when I do electrum listaddresses, does that require me to run that in the python development environment?  i.e. on windows I will be doing "python electrum listaddresses", and if I built electrum into an executable, I would no longer have this functionality?


Really what I am after, is the functionality provided by the merchant.py.  So, possibly what I am seeing is the best way for anyone to use Electrum as a service to their bitcoin application, is to create a plugin for Electrum that provides the interface.

Anytime line on the compile for windows? I would really like to use Electrum with my Bwallet (Trezor clone)

Hello? Anyone home?  Huh
you wanted to go with a cheap copy of Trezor - just contact the manufacturer... you can't have your cake and eat it too!

Support developers that provide added value - don't support copycats - and don't expect honorable developers, like ThomasV and SatoshiLabs to support knock-offs.

I am not against competition, but this Bwallet is not competition - it is simply a copycat, based on open-sourced firmware and code from SatoshiLabs.   No added value.  Most likely with no support, no anything at all, really... you received what you paid for... enjoy, while it lasts! ... and I hope your bootloger is safe...



That has nothing to do with the bug in Electrum that closes when trying to use a hardware wallet. I was just asking the developer when he is going to recompile the bug fix into the code. The developer of Electrum gets nothing by my buying a Trezor or any other hardware wallet so your statement really makes no sense at all.

So I still have some unanswered questions...

1.  Why is Electrum being build in Python 2 instead of Python 3?

2.  What exactly is the Electrum daemon?

3.  when I do electrum listaddresses, does that require me to run that in the python development environment?  i.e. on windows I will be doing "python electrum listaddresses" in a command window?

I think he is speaking of the LTC version of Electrum. If so then try and download the latest version, you can get it here https://electrum-ltc.org/download/

In regards to alt coins, you can try Encompass which is based on Electrum and supports several different alt coins. There is a new version out at present (0.6.0) but its only a RC1 version so still early days but if you have some alt coins then Encompass is highly recommended.

You can find Encompass on GitHub at https://github.com/mazaclub/encompass/releases
