What it does

Our bot allows project owners/collaborators to reward open-source contributors' work with cryptocurrencies.

How we built it

Team of 5 literally hacked it over 10h. Technologies used:

• Pure Python3 :)
• Github
• Binance (holding and sending funds)
• GCP
• Docker

Challenges we ran into

• Cloud Functions caused some issues as Binance restricts withdrawals to set IPs :(

Accomplishments that we're proud of

• Getting working prototype in 1 day!

What we learned

• Python3 string substitution (f"Something {variable}"). Awesome!
• Github's webhook secret verification

What's next for Donatello

• [ ] "Paid" feature requests with accumulative balance
• [ ] If contributor requests a coin we don't have, do the exchange in Binance
• [ ] Github Apps for authentication
• [ ] Automated deployment

Built With
