Master server API

To build your own Duino-Coin apps, here's a list of of commands the master server accepts. To start communication however, firstly you need to connect to the server. For now you have two options:

  • TCP connection (recommended) - server IP and port are now static (but can change) and can be found here
  • Websocket connection (through proxy - may not be available 100% of the time) - server IP and port are static and are ws://51.15.127.80:15808

After connecting, the server will send version number it's currently on (1.7). At this point you can send LOGI or REGI request to login or register an account or JOB,username to receive job for mining. To login, send LOGI,username,password - replace username and password with credentials. After sucessfull login server will send OK. If login fails, server will send NO,Reason of failed login.

To register, send REGI,username,password,email - again, by replacing words with respective data. After sucessfull registration server will send OK. If registration fails, server will send NO,Reason of failed registration.

After loging-in you have access to the following commands:

  • BALA - Server will return balance of current user
  • JOB - Server will return job for mining - you can also use JOB,username to mine without loging-in
    • When sending result, you can pass hashrate count and miner name to display in the API, e.g.(6801,250000,My Cool Miner v4.20) indicates that result 6801 was found, hashrate was 250000H/S (250kH/s) and software name was My Cool Miner v4.20
      • If hashrate is not received, server estimates it from time it took to receive share and sets "Is estimated": "True" in the API
      • If software name is not received, server uses "Software": "Unknown" in the API
  • SEND,-,recipientUsername,amount - Send funds to someone, server will return a message about state of the transaction
  • CHGP,oldPassword,newPassword - Change password of current user

Python DUCO API module

To build your own Duino-Coin apps, here's a some documentation for the python module.

Getting Started

First you need to initialize the connection to the server

api_connection = duco_api.api_actions() #creates the api connection instance

The next step is to Login/Register Note: login and register do not require you to init but they close the connection after use

Login

api_connection.login(username="username", password="password")

Register

api_connection.register(username="username", password="password", email="user@example.com")

Functions

These functions require user being loged-in.

Balance

Gets the current balance of the logged-in user 
api_connection.balance() # takes no args

Transfer

Transfers Duco from logged-in user to the specified username 
api_connection.transfer(recipient_username='test_user1', amount=1)

reset password

Resets the password of the logged-in user 
api_connection.reset_pass(old_password='123', new_password='abc')

Other Functions

Use of this functions does not require being loged-in.

Get Duco Price

starts a thread with a loop that runs every 15 seconds 
duco_api.GetDucoPrice() # access the value by using the global variable <ducofiat>

Example API script

import duco_api

api_connection = duco_api.api_actions()

api_connection.login(username='YourUsername', password='YourPassword')

current_balance = api_connection.balance()
print(current_balance)

api_connection.close()
