RISE pool distribution software

This software is created by LISK delegate "dakk" which was then modified by me "spookiestevie" to work with RISE delegate pools

Configuration

Fork this repo; edit config.json and modify the first lines with your settings:

pubkey: your delegate pubkey (not address) 8d26323cc49a312dd22aede7fcff8bc8924bb30b3e1ddede39043cb13826a4f8
percentage: percentage to distribute 75
secret: your secret passphrase "word1 word2 word3..."
secondsecret: your second secret passphrase or leave blank if disabled "word1 word2 word3..."
node: the lisk node where you get forging info eg: https://wallet.rise.vision
nodepay: the lisk node used for payments eg: http://localhost:5555
minpayout: the minimum amount for a payout 0.2
coin: the name of the coin eg RISE
skip: a list of address' to skip
donations: a list of object (address: amount) for send static amount every payout
donationspercentage: a list of object (address: percentage) for send static percentage every payout
logfile: file where you want to write pending and sent amounts

You can edit docs/index.html and customize the webpage.

Finally edit poollogs_example.json and put in lastpayout the unixtimestamp of your last payout or the date of pool starting; then move poollogs_example.json to poollogs.json.

Running it

First install requests:

pip3 install requests

Then start it:

python3 liskpool.py

or if you want to use another config file:

python3 liskpool.py -c config2.json

It produces a file "payments.sh" with all payments shell commands. Run this file with:

bash payments.sh

The payments will be broadcasted (every 10 seconds). At the end you can move your generated poollogs.json to docs/poollogs.json and send the update to your git repo.

To display the pool frontend, enable docs-site on github repository settings.

Batch mode

The script is also runnable by cron using the -y argument:

python3 liskpool.py -y

There is also a 'batch.sh' file which run liskpool, then payments.sh and copy the poollogs.json in the docs folder.

Avoid vote hoppers

In some DPOS, some voters switch their voting weight from one delegate to another for receiving payout from multiple pools. A solution for that is the following flow:

Run liskpool.py every hour with --min-payout=1000000 (a very high minpayout, so no payouts will be done but the pending will be updated)
Run liskpool.py normally to broadcast the payments

Command line usage

usage: liskpool.py [-h] [-c config.json] [-y] [--min-payout MINPAYOUT]

DPOS delegate pool script

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -c config.json        set a config file (default: config.json)
  -y                    automatic yes for log saving (default: no)
  --min-payout MINPAYOUT
                        override the minpayout value from config file
