Zerotier One as a package - $100USD

luckman212 · Aug 22, 2016, 12:41 PM

Anyone else? Looks like we're up to $300 so far. Can the OP update the post title so the correct amount shows up on the list view?

I've created a package for pfSense that implements an interface to ZeroTier.

Currently it has the following functionality:

Join ZeroTier networks from GUI
Leave ZeroTier networks from GUI
View ZeroTier network status from GUI
Enable Controller function on underlying ZeroTier package

I've attached a demo video of this functionality here: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/500242/pfSense_ZeroTier.m4v

This meets everyones requirements with the exception of "creating networks", ie. the controller interface. The controller interface is a complex piece and will require much more work.

Is everyone still on board with their bounty's? Anybody else wanting to contribute?

thanks zev for doing this - I am definitely still in for the bounty, can't speak for the others. I haven't had a chance to watch the video just yet but I am going to check it out this weekend. I don't know how the payment works when it's split like this, do we just send $ via paypal individually, or put it into a escrow account or something?

Guys?

Very nice work so far man :)
I'm still in.

Just let me know how/where etc. as I haven't payed a bounty before.

Hi, found my way here from googletron.

I'll gladly pitch in $20 USD. Sorry I can't afford more.

Ok, I've completed the package, it functions well.

Here is a demo video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t0L_C7_LUgY

Here is how I see this happening. I will distribute the package to you manually once I have received your bounty payment. I would like to see the bounty total hit $400. This will allow me to update it once the upstream zerotier package is updated by the port maintainer as the API changes a bit in the newer versions. Once all bounty payments have been received, I will work to have this package accepted into the repo for proper distribution.

~~Arffeh - $30~~
~~brandur - $50~~
~~luckman212 - $100~~
sschueller - $50
pikkaachu - $100
–----------------
Total - $330

If you can use cash.me, no fees are charged on either side: https://cash.me/$zevlag
If you need to use paypal, if you choose friends and family there are no fees, otherwise, it's 3% fee. https://www.paypal.me/zevlag

Include your email address as a note, and I'll get you the packages ASAP.

Please report any bugs/issues you have with this.

Will do when I get home later today…

Question on this- I thought that the way it worked was the bounty was to fund the package but then it would get released "for all to enjoy" - I didn't realize it was going to be something sent out-of-band. Is that always the way it works? For a few reasons, not the least of which is to have it more easily installable via the normal package manager system.

Arffeh · Sep 28, 2016, 10:45 PM

Sent $30. Im sorry i cant afford more. :(

Luckman212,

I fully intend for it to be released for all to enjoy. I'm just using the staged release as a means of escrow to encourage those who have committed bounty funds to send them. I don't know what usually happens with this.

luckman212 · Sep 29, 2016, 12:34 AM

Ok got it. Sounds fair - just sent my $100 :)

brandur · Sep 29, 2016, 7:00 AM

I'm having issues with the(a) transfer.
I sent you a PM.

brandur · Sep 29, 2016, 2:25 PM

Issue resolved and 50 USD coming your way ;)
Thanks

luckman212 · Sep 29, 2016, 4:41 PM

Cool looks like things are moving along. Zev have you received all funds yet?

Have you guys installed the pkg yet? I haven't had the time just yet. How's it working for you?

zevlag · Sep 29, 2016, 4:43 PM

I've not heard from sschueller - $50 or pikkaachu - $100 yet.

Thank you everyone else for being prompt.

brandur · Oct 3, 2016, 11:27 AM

I'm out of the country until next week and I don't want to test anything while no being there.

Hopefully someone else can test before I come back :D
Ether way, I will test when I'm back on Wednesday.

pikkaachu · Oct 6, 2016, 1:59 AM

my $100 is sent.

Sorry for late reply, got a new job and relocated countries, forgot about the bounty I posted here. Great to see it finally coming to life.

Arffeh · Oct 12, 2016, 10:51 PM

Has anyone else contributed yet zevlag? :(

luckman212 · Oct 17, 2016, 2:46 PM

zev- I finally have some time to play with this- about to download now. Just making sure the links you sent are still good, is there any update etc since the original mail you sent?

zevlag · Oct 17, 2016, 2:49 PM

They are still good. No updates yet.

I plan to try and git this merged onto github this week, and then the process and of a package being published begins.
