Karma Bank

x00x00 MVP
edited February 2012 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8

This is reputation linked virtual currency. Simple rules can be used to reward based on various user meta meeting certain conditions. This is only the beginning so bare with.

This plugin anticipates all the reputation based addons, like badges that will come out, and is implemented in the most flexible way, so that it doesn't have to rely on hooks being there, instead it create virtual event by listening to user meta.

It will also be able to be extended. Have a look at KarmaBankMetaMap event in the MetaMap method for hints. CheckKarma is where the magic happens.

Simple payment API coming shortly.

Please sponsor any features you would like.

    I try to avoid this by

        if(!Gdn::Structure()->Table('KarmaRules')->ColumnExists('RuleID'))
        Gdn::Structure()
            ->Table('KarmaRules')
            ->PrimaryKey('RuleID')
            ->Set();

    Unfortunately unlike most structure changes it can't check to see if the column already exists, and just be silent. So I will have to drop whatever key it has.

    For now set you error low, debug off.

    the problem is now fixed

    There are the associated locale definitions:

    Enabled
Disabled
Meta
Make transaction of
Karma
%s\'s Karma Balance
Transaction
Date
Balance
You do not have any Karma yet.
Reward / Tax
Karma Bank
Settings/Rules
Karma Bank Settings
Karma Bank

    You can also translate specific rules like:

    Starting Balance
CountComments Every 2

    As well as the default date format, of course.

  • x00x00 MVP

    I've made the translation of transaction type bit easier/more versalile

    So instead of translating each rule e.g. CountComments Every 2 you can translate CountComments and Every.

    To change the order of the words set like so

    $Definition['CountComments.Order']='%3$s %2$s %1$s';

    If you are less than v0.9.4b, unfortunately you are goign to have to drop all Gnd_Karma* tables. before upgrading. The recreate your rule. Sorry there is no way round this.

    Great job guys!

    Is there a way to show the Karma balance inside discussions along with other meta info such as how the show post count plug-in works?

  • x00x00 MVP

    yes it is possible, that plugin gives you an idea of how you might do it in a plugin or themehook. Would you like to sponsor a check box option to include it, in this plugin?

    I'm also offering user permissions (some people might not want their karma to be public), and a bunch of other stuff that other people might be interested in sponsoring.

    Obviously the more people that sponsor, is good, and also you are contributing something to the development.

  • VectorSkullzVectorSkullz New

    I'll sponsor it depending on the overall quality of the plugin or themehook.

    Great idea to have an option to show or hide karma balance! But in the meantime, considering the plug-in is new and most people are starting off with the default balance... this isn't a priority, IMO.

    Everything about this plug-in is exciting :)

  • x00x00 MVP

    The quality should be fine you are simply add to the user meta, by I away honour every job, to spec.

    It depends on the direction people want. Obviously I'm going to develop a simple payment API, but I won't start on that till an applicable related feature/project comes up.
