Hello dear friends!
I did not write the posts a month. I'm not missing, I've been with your all month and I supported your posts. I didn't have time to write posts. Why? Because a month ago I had a good idea and I decided to implement it. The idea came after I couldn't find resteems of my posts. I began to look on Steemit tools to help me find resteems. I was really upset because I didn't find anything. And suddenly in my mind appeared the thought:
"Why look for? I know the basics of JavaScript and I can try to make a search tool for resteems!"
I have been thinking about the algorithm of my tool for a long time. Then I found a wonderful database. Her author is @arcange. This is a very cool developer of tools for Steemit. He developed SteemSQL, SteemitBoard, Steem.NET and SteemToolbar. And he's a Witness! I began to develop a script to search for resteems in SteemSQL. Two weeks later, my script was ready and I began testing. Everything worked well. And suddenly in @arcange blog I saw a post that SteemSQL access became paid. It really upset me. Especially I was upset about the cost of access, 10 SBD per month.
Wow! 10 SBD is fair value, but I don't make that much money on Steemit.
I started looking for other ways to work with my instrument. And I've found it! I learned about PostgreSQL. This is a free excellent database. I installed PostgreSQL on my computer and started rewriting all scripts again. Two days ago I finished setting up my resteems search tool and started testing. The first tests were successful and today I can announce the beginning work of my tool.
I called it "WRM service". WRM - Who Resteem Me.
How does it work?
Write a comment to your post. The comment must start with the command !WRM! After the command !WRM! you can write any text. Important: you should comment only post itself with the command !WRM! Replies to other comments will not be accepted.
The script tracks all Steemit comments, finds comments with the command !WRM! and saves them to the database. Every 3 hours the script runs search for resteems, then he publishes a post with a report. The script is working in beta mode and errors are possible. Of course there will be errors. Ha-ha. But together we will fix them. If you did not find your request in the report, update your comment containing the command !WRM! and wait for the next post with the report. There is one limitation! During the beta mode resteems will be available for posts created within last 14 days..
The resteem database support will be paid from the royalty fees for reports. If you like the service and support it with your upvotes, then I will add new features to WRM service.
All reports will be published by @tainika account with the tag "wrm".
My employer has recently added to me more job. And I can't frequently visit Steemit. So I won't be able to answer all your questions, comments and suggestions quickly. I'm sorry in advance. I will collect all your questions and suggestions and will answer in my next posts.
