# Steem Late Vote Explorer
## Description
Steem Late Vote Explorer (SLVE) is a tool I designed to visually represent and track last-minute votes in the interests of education and abuse detection. It is built with customizability in mind and can currently stream the blockchain to show a live feed of last-minute votes, as well as saving that data for visual representation at any time.

## Repository
https://github.com/sisygoboom/abuse_detection_steemit

---
---

## Bug Fixes
### No Default File Location
Previously, if the user created a new AbuseDetection object in `abuse_detection_steemit.py`, they'd have to supply the directory of the `.json` files, otherwise they'd be treated with an error message.

#### Solution
To fix this, I changed the parameter for
`containing_folder`
from `=r''` to `=None`
Then changed the code so that in the initialisation, if None had been passed, the directory is set as the current working dir (e.i. where the file was launched from).

*Here we can see AbuseDetection loading the db without having to declare a directory.*
</center>

The patch comes in two separate commits due to an error I failed to notice earlier.
[1](https://github.com/sisygoboom/abuse_detection_steemit/commit/ad9169a7c1a87f9e8796821adf43f9b0c2692ae8), [2](https://github.com/sisygoboom/abuse_detection_steemit/commit/0ddbedb6264992f82435e5a5ce241d177045f0ff)

---

### Steem Sincerity Down
As I pointed out previously, steem sincerity has been less than operational for a few weeks now, this was rendering the streamer in abuse_detection_steemit.py essentially useless. Errors would look like the ones shown below:

---

#### Solution
My long-term plan is to migrate to @steem-ua, but until the RPC becomes public and/or my account gets approved for RPC requests, that won't be possible.

For now, the only solution was to remove all traces of anything to do with steem-sincerity. This proved to be a rather arduous task since I'd integrated sincerity quite heavily into my code. The full commit can be found [here](https://github.com/sisygoboom/abuse_detection_steemit/commit/1e782bc3b27007f4bbf92ce2b8fb84c5921cf250).

Thanks for the contribution, @sisygoboom. It's cool that you are keeping on top of maintaining the project by fixing bugs and removing deprecated code.

Since there weren't many changes I can't really give any relevant feedback. I hope you don't mind.
