Microsoft Excel Wallet for bitshares (Beta version)

in #bitshares • 8 years ago

Since I have been developing Excel automation for many years, I think I could use my experience to help to create an Excel Wallet to take adventage of Excel tools and user powerful interface

I think Excel is a great tol for managing big amount of data , and will make easier to many people to work with bitshares

So , I am using the Openledger nodejs api code from github , I am runuing it from my VPS

My idea is start implementing first the Historic calls

  • account_history (already developed as seen in the video)
  • get_orders
  • check_orders

    • node api source code screenshot from Github

    I also have created a first draft of a sheet where pivot tables and dynamic charts will show the data in a very flexible way

    But when I think this tool can become really powerful is when transfer , sell ,etc... can be triggered from the Excel workbook , so for example you can sell all the assets from several accounts

    Well , so this is my idea , I would appreciate your opinions about it

    Do you find interesting or does not make much sense to invest the time in just an Excel?

    Can you build an blockexplorer this way?
    I'd love to play with some blockchain statistics like volume, assets etc...

    Good idea, I had not thoght of that .I guess I can . I would have first to work on bitsharejs to code the api calls , or look for some project which already use them

      Yeah , but will come in the future , anyway I do not see this tools similar to a block explorer , I think it probably will be quicker from a Web solution

      What I am trying to build now is kind of a OpenLedger accounts dashboard , so you can manage several accounts from an Excel workbook

      Right now I am working on pulling the account history for up to 5 accounts

          Thanks , as I see it is a good way of seeing your positions and accounts events ,specially when you have several accounts
          But also I think that being able to make transactions from the Excel can be quite useful

            This is fantastic! Do I need Excel to run this?

            Yes , you need to have MsExcel installed (Any version up from 97 should work fine )
            I am working in a on a windows Desktop version first
            What features would you like it to have?
