Sumowoocommerce

A WooCommerce extension for accepting Sumokoin

Dependancies

This plugin is rather simple but there are a few things that need to be set up before hand.

• A web server! Ideally with the most recent versions of PHP and mysql

• The Sumokoin wallet-cli and Sumokoin wallet-rpc tools found here

• WordPress Wordpress is the backend tool that is needed to use WooCommerce and this Sumokoin plugin

• WooCommerce This Sumokoin plugin is an extension of WooCommerce, which works with WordPress

Step 1: Activating the plugin

• Downloading: First of all, you will need to download the plugin. You can download the latest release as a .zip file from https://github.com/pwhelan/sumowp/releases If you wish, you can also download the latest source code from GitHub. This can be done with the command git clone https://github.com/pwhelan/sumowp.git or can be downloaded as a zip file from the GitHub web page.

• Unzip the file Sumokoinwp_release.zip if you downloaded the zip from the releases page here.

• Put the plugin in the correct directory: You will need to put the folder named Sumokoin from this repo/unzipped release into the wordpress plugins directory. This can be found at path/to/wordpress/folder/wp-content/plugins

• Activate the plugin from the WordPress admin panel: Once you login to the admin panel in WordPress, click on "Installed Plugins" under "Plugins". Then simply click "Activate" where it says "Sumokoin - WooCommerce Gateway"

Step 2: Get a Sumokoin daemon to connect to

Option 1: Running a full node yourself

To do this: start the Sumokoin daemon on your server and leave it running in the background. This can be accomplished by running ./sumokoind inside your Sumokoin downloads folder under /Resources/bin. The first time that you start your node, the Sumokoin daemon will download and sync the entire Sumokoin blockchain. This can take several hours and is best done on a machine with at least 4GB of ram, an SSD hard drive (with at least 15GB of free space), and a high speed internet connection.

Option 2: Connecting to a remote node

Step 3: Setup your Sumokoin wallet-rpc

• Setup a Sumokoin wallet using the sumokoin-wallet-cli tool. If you do not know how to do this you can learn about it at sumokoin.org

• Start the Wallet RPC and leave it running in the background. This can be accomplished by running ./sumokoin-wallet-rpc --rpc-bind-port 18082 --rpc-login username:password --log-level 2 --wallet-file /path/walletfile where "username:password" is the username and password that you want to use, seperated by a colon and "/path/walletfile" is your actual wallet file. If you wish to use a remote node you can add the --daemon-address flag followed by the address of the node. --daemon-address node.Sumokoinworld.com:18089 for example.

Step 4: Setup Sumokoin Gateway in WooCommerce

• Navigate to the "settings" panel in the WooCommerce widget in the WordPress admin panel.

• Click on "Checkout"

• Select "Sumokoin GateWay"

• Check the box labeled "Enable this payment gateway"

• Enter your Sumokoin wallet address in the box labled "Sumokoin Address". If you do not know your address, you can run the address commmand in your Sumokoin wallet

• Enter the IP address of your server in the box labeled "Sumokoin wallet rpc Host/IP"

• Enter the port number of the Wallet RPC in the box labeled "Sumokoin wallet rpc port" (will be 18082 if you used the above example).

• Enter the username and password that you want to use in their respective feilds

• Click on "Save changes"

Info on server authentication

It is reccommended that you specify a username/password with your wallet rpc. This can be done by starting your wallet rpc with sumokoin-wallet-rpc --rpc-bind-port 18082 --rpc-login username:password --wallet-file /path/walletfile where "username:password" is the username and password that you want to use, seperated by a colon. Alternatively, you can use the --restricted-rpc flag with the wallet rpc like so ./sumokoin-wallet-rpc --testnet --rpc-bind-port 18082 --restricted-rpc --wallet-file wallet/path.
