🎟 delegator-raffle

Selects a delegator at random (optionally) filtered by several criteria. Useful for stake pool giveaways, raffles and so on.

Getting started

Blockfrost

This tool makes use of the Blockfrost API. You first need to sign into your Blockfrost account before using this. After signing in, create a new project and retrieve your API key.

Installation

Begin by cloning the delegator-raffle repository and change into the directory. To run this project you need Node.js version 14 or higher. It's recommend to setup up your own Node.js backend. Exposing your API keys in a frontend application is usually a bad idea. You may directly import the blockfrost-js SDK by using your favorite package manager:

npm i @blockfrost/blockfrost-js

or

yarn add @blockfrost/blockfrost-js

In addition to this, you will need the dotenv package. This is a zero-dependency module that loads environment variables from a .env file into process.env. You may install it like so:

npm i dotenv

or

yarn add dotenv

No other dependencies are required.

Usage

Copy .env_example to .env and edit the placeholder values:

# Your blockfrost API key https://blockfrost.io/
BLOCKFROST_API_KEY = "your API key goes here"

# The ID of the Cardano stake pool
POOL_ID = "your pool ID goes here"

# Minimum amount staked in Lovelace 
MIN_STAKE = 500000000
...

If you wish, define a minimum amount of active stake and any stake addresses to exclude (for example, the pool pledge, owners and so on). By default only active, rather than live, delegator stakes are evaluated. You may also define a different stake period by adjusting the MIN_EPOCHS value.

Finally, execute it with Node.js:

node raffle.js

Example

The app will fetch some basic and extended pool attributes, then retrieve a list of all live delegators. A delegator stake address is selected at random and evaluated against your defined parameters. Discarded tickets are stored and the process continues until the next random valid address is found. Finally, a list of addresses associated with the stake address is returned.
