[XMR] Monero - A secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency

[David Latapie]

Also notice the monero: pseudo-procotol.

In case anyone is wondering, the full URI spec is here: http://monero.wikia.com/wiki/URI_formatting

That wikia also has the new RPC API spec, if anyone wants to modify / add before it gets ratified in the coming months. Same goes for the URI format.

If I wanted to have the pseudo-protocol redirect to mymonero.com (thus, a browser page), is it possible? I suppose a Chrome extension or Firefox plugin would allow it (but I know nothing to extension coding).

btw, is http://monero.wikia.com/ the official monero wiki?

No, it's just something we use for aspects related to protocol and design development.

Can we setup wikimedia on monero.cc or xmrmonero.com (i see a wiki page there but it doesnt show me anything)  so we can start adding info? Then, when time comes, you guys can do whatever changes you want but some articles will be ready...

I can't speak to peripheral projects, but if you want to read some rationale for why we've gone down a certain route on monero.cc read this post which details why SendGrid reached the same conclusions we did (although they first had to make two missteps with Wikimedia and Wordpress first, which we've avoided) - https://sendgrid.com/blog/creating-sustainable-documentation-with-jekyll/

Goto forum.monero.cc , start a thread, maintain the OP like a wiki page, write articles, etc. I'm learning to like that forum.

or xmrmonero.com is another avenue.

It is already the case, but, since xmronero has a WYWIWYG editor, there is no need for the syntax - except for creating new links and this already possible. The wiki has revisions, diff visualisation and permalinks, as well as talk pages and table of contents, but not eveything works well - for the moment content creation and diff works but TOC and talk pages not - fortunately, this is not the most important.

The most important is that YOU populate the wiki

Good post, didn't know Monero already passed the "peer-review" finals.

Not yet, in the work.

Monero-relevant and insightful TED talk by Snowden files-exposing journalist Glenn Greenwald:

"Why Privacy Matters"

[David Latapie]

To get the ball rolling, I started some wiki pages

https://xmrmonero.com/?q=wiki/en/monero-wiki
https://xmrmonero.com/?q=wiki/en/vip-monero
https://xmrmonero.com/?q=wiki/en/monero-tools
https://xmrmonero.com/?q=wiki/en/exchanges

And some other links are waiting to be filled.

Ok! Now i get it cause i though i couldnt view the wiki for some reason.

Trying to find out whether there is a need for a lottery sort of site like this before coding the back-end.
ie. Would anyone be interested in playing a monero lottery/lucky draw?

Code:

[url=http://monero:46BeWrHpwXmHDpDEUmZBWZfoQpdc6HaERCNmx1pEYL2rAcuwufPN9rXHHtyUA4QVy66qeFQkn6sfK8aHYjA3jk3o1Bv16em?recipient_name=DevFund]donate.monero.cc[/url]

Outside of this forum, you would need to remove the http in order to make this work, like this, right?

Code:

[url=monero:46BeWrHpwXmHDpDEUmZBWZfoQpdc6HaERCNmx1pEYL2rAcuwufPN9rXHHtyUA4QVy66qeFQkn6sfK8aHYjA3jk3o1Bv16em?recipient_name=DevFund]donate.monero.cc[/url]

However, stupid BBcode seems to auto-prepend http:
donate.monero.cc

Edit: This doesn't behave any better:
donate.monero.cc

So this sig-including doesn't work at all...

A question regarding the daemon's RPC interface:

Which is the current documentation? http://monero.wikia.com/wiki/RPC_API/Daemon claims that
"This is only a draft for a new version of the protocol. Please do NOT rely on it!"
and indeed, the /rpc endpoint doesn't seem to exist on my daemon. Should I then use Bytecoin's
RPC API docs ( https://wiki.bytecoin.org/wiki/Daemon_JSON_RPC_API )?

If yes, how can I see (using the API) that my daemon is fully synced?

Turns out, the calls from the Monero wiki are nowhere to be fund in the code on github.
No wonder I can't make it work, then.

Where is development happening? Not on github? There seems to be a very low activity...

The best way I can think of is querying the getlastblockheader and check the timestamp.

Code:

http://localhost:18081/json_rpc/getlastblockheader

Good idea! For the record, the call would require a post with:

Code:

{
    "jsonrpc":"2.0",
    "id":"yourid",
    "method":"getlastblockheader"
}

For example:

Code:

curl -X POST http://127.0.0.1:18081/json_rpc -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":"yourid","method":"getlastblockheader"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json"

Works like a charm, much better than just reading the block chain height and comparing that to chainradar's one... Thanks!

We haven't even started development on the new RPC API calls:)

With git you don't commit to the main repo every 5 minutes, that would make it exceedingly difficult to coordinate work between contributors. So developers work in their own forks and branches, and then submit pull requests to the upstream (main) repo.

Ah, that explains it, thanks. A pity, the new calls look so much more sane than the Bytecoin ones...

Yes, sorry, my question was phrased badly: where is development discussed? I mean, where could I go to find out the status of the RPC call implementation, or the often-discussed multisig stuff, or the db, etc? IRC? The Monero forum?

[David Latapie]

This is just a case of me typing to late at night, plus the force of habit. http:// shall be completely remove (since this is not the http protocol but the monero pseudoprotocol)

Even if the resulting code is correct, it is confusing, because it behave like a hypertext link but obviously doesn't work since there is no tool to handle it yet. So I reverted back to a good old donate.monero.cc.

Mostly #monero-dev.
