SmartCash has a vibrant community with people of many different talents. With any technology project coding and technology users have a lot to contribute. This article showcases the many different projects related to SmartCash on the open source code repository, GitHub. This follows in the tradition and spirit of sharing, open innovation, and making the world a smarter place. What's great about GitHub is anybody can fork the code and make their own branch. They can also submit for consideration bug fixes, new features, or comments. Take a moment and browse through these great projects.
Before we get to the list, if you want to learn a new skill coding is a great opportunity for you. Especially blockchain technology. Here is a promo pack by GitHub to help you get started. You can get a $50 credit on Digital Ocean to help you set up an Ubuntu VPS to try out some of these scripts.
https://github.com/SmartCash/smartcash/
This is the primary SmartCash client. Originally a fork from another blockchain project, the code now has diverged significantly with this branch being 496 commits ahead of the previous project. You can also see upcoming code changes in the 1.2 branch here when they are shared publicly. There is also code being worked on that is not public yet.
https://github.com/SmartCash/electrumx
This will enable using a wallet without downloading the entire blockchain. This will speed it up dramatically and also give more features like even further BarterDEX integration. SmartNodes will also be able to run the electrum server if they choose as the memory requirement is not very high.
https://github.com/SmartCash/electrum-smart
This is the actual wallet that works with the Electrum server.
https://github.com/SmartCash/PaperWalletGenerator
Create unique addresses and private keys for use on the blockchain. This allows you to send to an address without even creating a desktop wallet. Using this offline on a secure computer is a great way to generate a secure cold wallet address.
https://github.com/SmartCash/smartnode
This helpful script simplifies the installation of a SmartNode on linux. It uses the ppa repository but also does some nice features such as generating a unique RPC user and RPC password. It also comes with some cronjobs for useful maintenance tasks such as cleaning the log file and restarting the daemon.
https://github.com/SmartCash/SmartCash-Voting
The SmartCash Governance Portal uses signed messages to prove access to funds which are used in the voting process. This is a great method and relies upon a previous project.
https://github.com/SmartCash/rpc-explorer
This blockchain explorer is "Simple, stateless, self-hosted SmartCash blockchain explorer, via RPC. Built with Node.js, express, bootstrap-v4.". It can be a helpful way to get simple information out of the blockchain files without creating an elaborate database.
https://github.com/CCodam/smartexplorer-csharp-mssql
Simple explorer that pushes data into a local database for analysis.
https://github.com/GeorgeKimionis/BitcoinLib
The most complete, up-to-date, battle-tested .net Library and RPC Wrapper for SmartCash in C#.
https://github.com/SmartCash/InstantPay-POS
While this hasn't been worked on actively yet, this is the potential starting point for the SmartCash InstantPay system.
Support with General Bytes
https://github.com/GENERALBYTESCOM/batm_public/pull/40
https://github.com/SmartCash/python-keccak_hash
Python module for Smartcash's Keccak hashing.
https://github.com/smartnodescc/smartnodescc.github.io
The SmartNodes.cc website is on GitHub and all updates to the main branch are sent to the website for display.
https://gist.github.com/blockchainlibraryorg/186807cbb005fb449c068e71cb119609
This is a simple installer and set of firewall rules to protect your SmartNode port 9678 and enhance the security of your node. The script was derived from another node platform that suffered a DDOS attack, leading to the creation of these rules.
https://github.com/xdustinface/SmartCashVoting
This is a simple python script that enables you to vote on a proposal using all your addresses at once. Very helpful for node owners or those with multiple savings accounts. BE CAREFUL as this requires access to your private key / password. Make sure it's only the original script and read through it before using so you understand what it does. ADVANCED USERS ONLY
https://github.com/xdustinface/SmartNodeMonitorBot
Keep track of SmartNodes status with this helpful script. This is implemented on Discord and Telegram.
https://github.com/xdustinface/SmartExchangeMonitorBot
A simple script to monitor status of a few exchanges on their API. This is something that should probably be made into a website, too!
https://github.com/LithMage/smartcash-bootstrap-script-win10
This script will automatically locate SmartCash folder (if needed create it) in AppData, delete existing blocks and chainstate folders, download txindex bootstrap and finally create smartcash.conf file with required settings.
https://github.com/LithMage/smartnode
In case a SmartNode was not created with the bash installer that has scripts already installed for maintenance this is another way to add them.
https://gist.github.com/lukestokes/9530eb772f111b1cec9382d0088808ad
Script for copying from an already synced SmartCash SmartNode to a SmartNode01, SmartNode02, etc folder.
https://github.com/jl777/SuperNET/
This is where the code to enable BarterDEX for SmartCash was added. In case you were wondering, SmartCash uses the GRS method for txid hash calculations. (GroestlCoin, that is).
