• Authentication Interface testing

  • Current Bugs being worked on
    • "Missing Active Authority" when broadcasting account creation via RPC API

• Testnet private API server development

  • Problem
    • WeAuth is a 2 part server/client repository for running privatised functions like creating user accounts on public request signed with WeYouMe controlled testnet accounts
  • Solution
    • Make a lightweight api server for allowing any private user to run network functions expanding the network without any unnecessary overhead which will reside at WePrivateJs

• Created automated dependancy based republisher for multiple WeYouMe repositories and npm packages

  • Problem
    • When making changes in a heavily dependant library such as WeCryptoJs it is a pain to manually rebuild, test, commit, push, and republish all libraries which also depend on that library.
  • Solution
    • We created WePublish which is a bash and nodejs program which can walk through a directory structure of packages in a specified dependant order, rebuild, test, commit, push, and republish all the libraries given to it in an automated fashion

• Steem API downtime fix on steem.weyoume.io

• Authentication Interface Finalisation
  • Final testing
    • tested and working
  • Modifications
    • Login modification
      • Added a sign-up link on all login prompts
        • Before
          • 
        • After
          • 
      • Added password login support
        • For proxy accounts
          • Problem
            • a proxy account inherits the public keys of the creator account, but when trying to log-in with the password used for the creator account it fails because the login algorithm uses the proxy accounts username in the WIF generation process.
          • Solution
            • So we check account_auth usernames and generate WIF keys based off those values too
        • For non-standard permission public keys
          • Problem
            • If an account was generated with all permission public keys set as the owner public key, loggin in would not work because the login algorithm generates the memo public key using the username+password+permission algorithm but the account does not have that public key assosciated with it
          • Solution
            • For loop and generate all possible public keys and then check if any match any of the permission keys
    • Sign up/Register/Create account modification
      • Hide TME fee input and SCORE transfer input and replace with a "show-more" button
