Support for other coins

[Anonymous]

Hey,

First of all thank you for creating such a great plugin.

I am coin dev and I have setup my coin to work with the BTC coin adapter.

I was wondering how do I go about changing the symbol from BTC to my currency ?

Should I just edit the source code.

Hello,

And thanks for your kind words.

Yes, pretty much. If your coin is a clone of Bitcoin that retains most of its JSON-RPC API intact, then it should be just a matter of replacing strings. You can start from the litecoin adapter which I consider the reference implementation.

Litecoin RPC Adapter extension

From time to time I update the litecoin and other adapters. Simply remove the ds-update.php file before redistributing your plugin extension.

Remember to set sane values to transaction fees on plugin activation.

Hey Alex,

Thanks for the prompt reply.

Is there a built in functionality to gethashpersec & getdifficulty.

Is there a premium version of the plugin ?

Regards

[alexg]

The plugin does not call any of those methods.

There is no premium version of the plugin, but there are some premium extensions to it.

All is explained on the homepage https://www.dashed-slug.net

regards,
Alex
