My tests with the steem api

STEEM environment

Setting up

setting up python

we require python3.6. For Linux Mint this could be a problem (install Anaconda)

apt install virtualenv
pip3 install -U git+git://github.com/Netherdrake/steem-python

to activate the environment:

source ./steem/bin/activate

activating the testnet:

import steembase
import steem
steembase.chains.known_chains['STEEM'] = {
    'chain_id': '79276aea5d4877d9a25892eaa01b0adf019d3e5cb12a97478df3298ccdd01673',
    'prefix': 'STX', 'steem_symbol': 'STEEM', 'sbd_symbol': 'SBD', 'vests_symbol': 'VESTS'
}
client = steem.Steem(['https://testnet.steem.vc'])

setting up steem-js

sudo npm install --save steem
sudo npm install http-server -g

switching to the testnet

steem.config.set('websocket','wss://testnet.steem.vc')
steem.config.set('address_prefix', 'STX')
steem.config.set('chain_id', '79276aea5d4877d9a25892eaa01b0adf019d3e5cb12a97478df3298ccdd01673')
