[Dev] Feathercoin Open Merchant Map
-
Hi voingiappone, I’ve updated with my instance of Feathercoinmap with git pull and recompiled. There are 7 merchants on it now and I went through your tutorial, which also seemed to work OK for me.
I thought I only had 6 merchants on before, so I checked my chron job to refresh the list - which looks fine. I haven’t tested your help on the chron job yet, tho’. Bit busy, so just I’ll have to see if it finds the next Merchant, OK.

Unfortunately work has stopped again on this :(
There are now 7 merchants as I added the Oxford Blue to it the other day when I was testing the implementation I was planning to use for the production site…
My plan for this was to have it for bricks and mortar merchants, where you could go and spend your coins, the other map was to stay on the forum for members to be able to see others in their location etc…
I’ll try and get pen to paper with my plans over the weekend so everyone can see where I was planning on going, but RL is being a real pain in the backside at the moment :(
UM

Thx for checking it out! Of course my cron job instructions are for those who cannot figure it out by themselves… but you don’t have this problem right? So you don’t need it.

I think this map may fit both functions. As it is written now it can only accept the FTC tag on the OSM but we could always add a new entry in the overpass field to look for the users. Somnething like FTC-user=yes. Then you’ll see the map with the ability to choose between what you want to see visualized and what you don’t need. Or we just could have two separated installations for the two different tasks! Just an idea…

Don’t worry. It seems like you’re in those periods where even the 100% of your time is not enough to get the things done. We also have a lot of projects going on with FTC right now, so we may also delay this a bit, no?
Take it easy ;D

Hi voingiappone
Can you set up a Domain Name for feathercoinmap ? If you need a domain name , I can Provided .
I let my domain pointing to your server.

Hi Lizhi, that’s my server. There is no problem to point your domain name to 95.85.57.10 , I set it up for testing etc and it will be up for as long as needed. The easiest / best thing is to start your own instance of the map from Github.
It’s really easy to set up and the more nodes there are the better, it will be faster for access from your physical area. The data is registered centrally then spread round the nodes (from my understanding of how it works).

Lizhi, sorry for not relpying faster. I was out (holidays in japan) but I’m back to work from today.
To add yourself you just need to follow the tutorial I added in the updated version. In you map link, in the bottom’left panel there is a “Want to add yours?” blue link. Click there and follow the tutorial!
And meanwhile tell me if you find something awful or something I can improve. This is still beta… even if I think the animations work well and the tutorial is easy enough to follow.
Of course you can also set up your own FeathercoinMap installation! As wrapper correctly pointed out, the database relies on an external service (OSM) and therefore the map will always be up to date if you regularly run an update script for your local database. (Scripting info for a linux-based server automated update are stored in the Readme on github). You only have to clone the git repo on your server, manually run the update or have it automated with a cron job. That’s as easy as it gets!
Thank you for the interest in this project. May I ask you why in China you cannot access google maps?
-
Yes, I had commit my position. Map had refresh :)
http://map.ftc-c.com/ have 9 point .
google maps not go into China

Wow! So I see you localized the files in chinese.
I will probably ask you for those files to merge them in the main repo so that we can have a fully localized map!
I just don’t have the time for writing the code now. Will get back to you when I’ll be free!
Thx for the effort!

Thank you for all your work so far!

There may be a problem with Shellshock exploitation potential in Feathercoinmap - (Header User-Agent exploit attempted with () { :;}; wget)… Error
Checking other Shellshock problems with - http://shellshock.brandonpotter.com/
May have generic fix later but one to watch.

Wrapper,
thx for pointing out this issue. I’m in the middle of an intercontinental relocation (big stuff :'( !) so I’m not able to dig deeper in the vulnerability. It seems however that the stuff is only bash-related so it should not affect the Feathercoinmap which is a script that runs on bash. So I tested me remote installation of the map here (http://voingiappone.altervista.org/feathercoinmap/) and it says it is fine. The installation you tested runs therefore on a vulnerable server and you should try to update the bash binary.
And, Calem, thx for the support! Very late response though…

I would like to add Merchant Map to the 0.9.3-QT

If you can do that, I think you may proceed. Just a couple of conditions: link the official Feathercoin map git repo in the sources (i.e. my git repo) and also ask to Uncle Muddy before proceeding. He was working to include this project into his environment and I think that should have the precedence. I created this with that in mind after all…

Adding a Merchant Map to the Qt? wow…
I would like to see this!

Yes. I like add a page for merchant. When you click a merchant Logo , open it from feathercoin-core wallet.
