The application interface for `TeaParty`

TeaParty consists of two core parts tea & party, as illustrated by the diagram below.

• party - A suite of services and logic that support the platform. This is where all the magic happens 🪄 ( If this sounds complicated, just think of party as the 🧠 "brains" 🧠 of the project .)

• tea - A suite of services and logic to make it easy for users to interact with party

tea was elected to be designed as a desktop application over a hosted web service in order to provide users with the most control, safety, privacy, and security, while interacting with the marketplace. (Note Although tea is packaged as a desktop application, it does not have to run on your local desktop! In fact it is quite happy living on a remote server.)

tea works by first checking for a local NKN wallet, wallet, file and begins listing to this address. If this file does not exist, a new account is created for the user. (NOTE This file, wallet, is very imporant and should be treated as any other wallet or private key. Do not delete, move, or alter this file while you have open or pending trades as your NKN public address is how party talks to your tea client.)

After starting the NKN connection, tea also begins serving the static assets located at kodata (our React application) while exposing several API endpoints for the user to interact with Party

tea is now at your disposal to interact with 🎉Party🎉

TeaParty currently supports the trade of the following assets:

• PartyChain
• Ethereum
• EthOne
• Octa
• Polygon
• Celo
• Solana
• ANY - ( Users are able to list trades for ANY of the supported assets by defining a USD value for the trade)

I am currently in the process of introducing the following assets into TeaParty

• NFT's (on all supported chains)
• Kaspa
• Radiant
• Bitcoin
• Raven
• Ergo
• .... Want TeaParty to support something not on the roadmap? submit an issue and let me know!

NOTE Tea is currently in BETA and the only server avalible is the staging enviorment. In the staging environment there are several IMPORTANT differences from the production environment:

1. All of the RPC's are pointing to the following networks

(DO NOT SEND MAINNET CURRENCY)

   * Ethereum: Goerli ([faucet](https://www.alchemy.com/overviews/goerli-faucet))

   * Polygon: Mumbai ([faucet](https://faucet.polygon.technology/))

   * Solana: Testnet ([faucet](https://solfaucet.com/))

   * Celo: Alfajores ([faucet](https://celo.org/developers/faucet))

   * GRAMS: Mainnet
  
   * OCTA: Mainnet

   * ETHONE: Mainnet

1. The watch timeout has been taken down to 300 secconds from 2 hours ( After 300 secconds any pending transaction will fail)

2. Currently, users still have to pay for the transaction fees ( I will personally reimburse any and all GRAMS costs incurred while playing on testnet untill the faucet is setup.

tea is currently distribuited as both a container image and a Linux binary. This path was taken to support a maximum number of runtime environments at launch, however, the packaging will change over time to make it accessable to non Linux/Docker users.

Please download and configure Docker for your system. (GUI - download CLI - download)

Here are a few things you can currently do with tea:

• Browse the marketplace.
• Create new orders.
• View acquired Private Keys.
• Remove acquired Private Keys from the local filesystem.
• Interact with the TeaParty smart contract to pay for transaction fees, currently set @ 1 GRAMS/ Transaction.

The quickest way to get going with tea is by executing one of the following commands (Only OSX and Linux is supported at the moment and require git)

!!NOTE!! the quickstart method will point you to a production release of tea I.E. Mainnet RPC's are used here, unlike the rest of the methods below that are on testnet.

OSX (amd64):

git clone https://github.com/TeaPartyCrypto/Tea.git && cd Tea && cd release && open http://localhost:8081 && ./mac 

Linux:

git clone https://github.com/TeaPartyCrypto/Tea.git && cd Tea && cd release && xdg-open http://localhost:8081 && ./linux

Windows:

git clone https://github.com/TeaPartyCrypto/Tea.git && cd Tea && cd release && start http://localhost:8081 && windows.exe

Releases can be downloaded from the releases on the right side of the homepage of this repository on github. Or the most current build is always avalible in the release directory.

Start a release by navigating into the /release folder (either within this repo. or via download) and executing the proper binary for your system.

To start tea pointing to a local instance of Party:

make run

You can now visit http://localhost:8081 to view the interface.

To start tea pointing to the STAGING instance of Party:

make staging

You can now visit http://localhost:8081 to view the interface.

To start tea pointing to the production instance of Party:

make prod

You can now visit http://localhost:8081 to view the interface.

Execute the following to build and bundle the application from source:

make build

Note That make debug is also avalible, this will build the project and then imediatly start serving a local revision.

Currently teaparty is being devloped solo. So I am more than happy to accept any and all contributions/issues/requests/input from the community!
