Browser Extension & Bookmark to Check Whitelist Requirements

in Gridcoin (GRC)3 years ago

Summary

I have created a browser extension and a bookmark to check if a project meets the stats requirements for whitelisting or if a whitelisted project needs to be greylisted. It works using BOINCStats's last 40 day stats for a project

Note that this only checks zero credit days and work availability score, so it cannot check every requirement

Installing it

Firefox users can get it from the addon store page here

All other browser users can use a bookmark instead. To do that, go to bookmark_version.js file in my repository for this and copy it (may be easier to copy from the raw file). Create a bookmark using that entire text as if it were a link

If you really want to use it as an extension and are on Chrome, you can look at some of the not recommended steps here

Using It

First find the project in BOINCStats and go to its project stats. Then click on the "Last 40 days" link. If you are using the bookmark, click on the bookmark now. Now you should see two boxes pop up showing the number of zero credit days (ZCD) and the work availability score (WAS) ratio

If they are failing either check, those boxes show up in red and the project cannot go on the whitelist at the moment (or it must go on the greylist if it is already whitelisted). If both checks pass, it might be able to go on the whitelist
