turtle-wallet

A GUI wallet for TurtleCoin, based on walletd.

Getting Started

To get started, install the prerequisites as detailed below, then look at the "Running" section

Prerequisites

This program is written using Python 2.7.

It requires PyGObject to be installed.

It also has the following prerequisites, installed via pip

  • psutil
  • requests
  • tzlocal

Note that these have only been tested on ubuntu, let me know if anything else is required on Windows.

Running

Getting this wallet running is easy.

Before starting, make sure walletd is running and fully synced.

An example launch command for walletd that means you do not have to start the daemon (ie, Turtlecoind) alongside it would be as follows:

./walletd -w <wallet file name> -p <wallet password> --local

Note: opening your wallet with walletd renders it no longer readable by simplewallet. Please make a backup, as always.

Having installed the prerequisites and made sure walletd is running, you can start it from a terminal

python start.py

And everything should start up as intended, provided you installed everything correctly.

Building an executable

This project can be built with pyinstaller, if required. This will most likely be the case for full releases.

Contributing

Feel free to submit a pull request, it will be reviewed and feedback given.

Things that need doing

  • Hooking up of UI for sending TRTL (ui done, just needs backend doing)

  • Settings
  • About page
