To do snapshot of any Steem Engine token (excluding STEEMP):
./se_snapshot.py -s SYMBOL > snapshot.log
By default accounts will be ordered alphabetically in the snapshot file.
You can use the -o option to sort by account balance, with largest balance
first:
./se_snapshot.py -s SYMBOL -o > snapshot.log
Complete command line options:
usage: se_snapshot.py [-h] [-s SYMBOL] [-o]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-s SYMBOL, --symbol SYMBOL
Steem Engine token symbol to snapshot
-o, --order Order accounts by balance (largest first), instead of
alphabetically
Snapshots take into account open market orders, stakes, delegations, pending unstakes,
and pending undelegations. The following accounts are excluded from each snapshot:
null, steemsc, steem-tokens, steem-peg, and deepcrypto8
In addition, the issuing account for each token is also excluded, since most likely
that's the account you would want to do an airdrop from on the Hive Engine side
---------------------------------------------
To do Hive Engine airdrop (using snapshot file produced by se_snapshot.py):
1. Install Python 3, beem library, and steemengine library. You'll want to use at
least version 0.22.12 of beem, which supports Hive.
https://github.com/holgern/beem
https://github.com/holgern/steemengine
2. Ensure beem wallet is configured with active key for account to airdrop the tokens from
3. Issue enough tokens to the source account to cover the airdrop (total token amount will be
listed in the snapshot file).
4. Open he_airdrop.py and find the following line:
stm.wallet.unlock('password') # TODO: put your wallet password here
Replace 'password' with your beempy wallet password.
5. he_airdrop.py has some command line options:
usage: he_airdrop.py [-h] [-m] [-i INPUT] [-a ACCOUNT]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-m, --mock Turn on mock mode (for doing a dry run)
-i INPUT, --input INPUT
Snapshot filename to process
-a ACCOUNT, --account ACCOUNT
Hive account to send tokens from
6. To do a mock test run:
./he_airdrop.py -m -i snapshot.log -a fromaccount
This will show the actual expected output, but not execute send transactions.
Note that all output will also be saved in a file called airdrop_output.log.
This file can be used to aid in error recovery if the airdrop crashes halfway
through or something else unexpected happens.
The snapshot file must have been previously produced by se_snapshot.py
7. To do the airdrop for real:
./he_airdrop.py -i snapshot.log -a fromaccount
There is a 5 second pause between each send transaction, to ensure transactions
don't fail from being performed too quickly. It may take several hours to complete
an airdrop for a large snapshot. Do ensure the script can run uninterrupted
for that time period, and the sending account has enough RCs.
---------------------------------------------
To do snapshot of STEEMP:
./steemp_snapshot.py > snapshot.log
sample cron job definition for snapshot:
0 14 20 3 * ~/steemsmartcontracts/snapshot/steemp_snapshot.py > ~/logs/steemp_snapshot/snapshot_$(date +"\%FT\%H-\%M-\%S").log 2>&1
---------------------------------------------
To do HIVEP airdrop on Steem Engine:
1. Install Python 3, beem library, and steemengine library
2. Ensure beem wallet is configured with active key for account to airdrop the HIVEP from
3. Issue enough HIVEP to the source account to cover the airdrop (total HIVEP amount will be
listed in the snapshot file).
4. Open distribute_hivep.py and find the following line:
stm.wallet.unlock('password') # TODO: put your wallet password here
Replace 'password' with your beempy wallet password.
5. distribute_hivep.py has some command line options:
usage: distribute_hivep.py [-h] [-m] [-i INPUT] [-a ACCOUNT]
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-m, --mock Turn on mock mode (for doing a dry run)
-i INPUT, --input INPUT
Snapshot filename to process
-a ACCOUNT, --account ACCOUNT
Steem account to send HIVEP from
6. To do a mock test run:
./distribute_hivep.py -i snapshot.log -a steem-tokens -m
This will show the actual expected output, but not execute send transactions.
Note that all output will also be saved in a file called airdrop_output.log.
This file can be used to aid in error recovery if the airdrop crashes halfway
through or something.
7. To do the airdrop for real:
./distribute_hivep.py -i snapshot.log -a steem-tokens
There is a 5 second pause between each send transaction, to ensure transactions
don't fail from being performed too quickly. From snapshot trial runs, it is
expected that the airdrop will take somewhere around 13 hours to complete given
the number of transactions required. Do ensure the script can run uninterrupted
for that time period, and the source account has enough RCs.
