TRD is a software for distributing staking rewards of delegators introduced in detail in this Medium article. This is not a script but a full scale application which can continuously run in the background as a Linux service. It can track cycles and make payments. However it does not have to be used as a service, but it can also be used interactively. The documentation can be found here.
TRD supports complex payments, pays in batches, and provides three back ends for calculations: Tezos RPC, tzstats API and TzKT API. TRD is developed and tested extensively by the community.
Provider notes:
The terms and conditions of tzstats note that a license is needed for the commercial use of the API!
If you wish to use the Data in a manner that is primarily intended for or directed towards commercial advantage or monetary compensation (such use, “Commercial Use”), KIDTSUNAMI requires that you enter into a separate commercial license agreement. Entering into a separate commercial license allows us to protect KIDTSUNAMI’s investment in the Data and to maintain the integrity of the Data.
Please contact us at [email protected] for more information about Commercial Uses of our Data.
With #232 the backend of the Tezos Reward Distributor can be optionally Powered by TzKT API under the following terms:
TzKT API is free for everyone and for both commercial and non-commercial usage.
If your application or service uses the TzKT API in any forms: directly on frontend or indirectly on backend, you should mention that fact on your website or application by placing the label "Powered by TzKT API" with a direct link to tzkt.io.
Python 3 is required. You can use the following commands to install it.
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get -y install python3-pipDownload the application repository using git clone:
git clone https://github.com/tezos-reward-distributor-organization/tezos-reward-distributorTo install required modules, use pip with requirements.txt provided.
cd tezos-reward-distributor
pip3 install -r requirements.txtRegularly check and upgrade to the latest available version:
git fetch origin #fetches new branches
git status #see the changes
git pullBefore running the TRD, you need to configure it e.g by adding your staking address and payout process.
The configuration file should be included in the ~/pymnt/cfg/ directory by default. You can use the following command to copy and modify the example configuration:
# create directory
mkdir -p ~/pymnt/cfg/
cp tezos-reward-distributor/examples/tz1boot1pK9h2BVGXdyvfQSv8kd1LQM6H889.yaml ~/pymnt/cfg/
nano ~/pymnt/cfg/tz1boot1pK9h2BVGXdyvfQSv8kd1LQM6H889.yamlFor a list of parameters, run:
python3 src/main.py --helpThe most common use case is to run in mainnet and start to make payments for the latest released rewards or continue making payments from the cycle after the last payment was done.
python3 src/main.pyTRD necessitates an interface to get provided with income and delegator data in order to perform the needed calculations. The default provider is the public rpc node mainnet.tezrpc.me. However, it is possible to change the data provider with the flag -P rpc. Please note that in this case, the default node would be localhost:8732. In order to change the node url for the provider, you can give the desired url under the flag -A followed with node_url:port (e.g. -P rpc -A 127.0.0.1:8733). Please note that the node should be an archive node, and that the port should be the rpc port specified while launching the node.
