π°[CLOSED] Bounties Playground | banking.make.dev
What is this about?
We created a central repo as a community space for playing with programmable banking and building/extending its API functionality. We hope that anyone interested in building useful financial tools can use this repo to increase functionality for personal and business use-cases.
What do I need to know?
The Bounties
β° Each bounty season will run over three weekends.
π« Season #1: Starts 27 October and ends 14 November 2022 π
π« Season #2: Starts 15 November and ends 5 December 2022 π
π« Season #3: Starts Jan 2023 - TBC π
We have a list of bounties for functionality that we think will be useful to add to the current codebase.
π Check out these available bounties as a starting point!
π If you have an idea for a new bounty; let us know here (it may get included for next season π)
What do I do when I find a bounty I like?
If you see one you like,
comment that you want to claim it.
The person that created the bounty will respond with a "go-ahead π".
You can clone the GitHub repo and work on your local machine.
π‘ ProTip: We recommend forking our REPL on Replit for a quick-start. Replit is a great dev tool that makes it easy to run and edit code.
Write the necessary code or documentation in your fork.
Create a pull request into the main GitHub repo with your changes.
Once your code is merged into the master app, you'll receive your bounty reward. π
Where do I get support?
Great question! Drop into the dedicated bounties Slack channel here.
We'll be more than happy to help with any questions or support around your bounties build/ the bounties in general/ or if you want to hang out and help others.
π‘ ProTip: If you learn something interesting while working in the codebase, be sure to add it in ./knowledge so everyone can benefit!
Other features
Feel free to extend this app with other programmable banking features you'd like. We can't guarantee it'll be merged into the main branch, but if it provides real value, there's a good chance it will be. Please make sure your code is well documented, and its reason for existing is explained well.
Issue tracking
Getting set up
Fork the code - either from this REPL directly or from GitHub if you prefer to work locally
Configure the app's components to point to the domain your REPL is hosted at
Set the
DOMAIN
secret, the default isbanking.make.dev
- this is used in the root code compiler, among othersUpdate the connector file in
public/Investec.swagger.json
and replacebanking.make.dev

Current Features
Investec API
routes/investec.js
proxies any incomingGET
andPOST
requests to the Investec API while converting API keys into single-use bearer tokens. The app doesn't store any sensitive information.routes/investec/auth.js
contains middleware to extract partition information from API keys, if the requester is using partitioned access androutes/investec/card_partitions.js
contains config for those partitionsroutes/investec/special.js
extends Investec API base functionality by providing an abstraction layer for card control, handling card events, and simplifying the transfer endpoint
RootCode card control
modules/root_code_card_policy.js
converts simple config flags into a JS bundle that can be compiled as RootCode onto a supported card
Power Automate
There is a connector file in
public/Investec.swagger.json
that you can import into Microsoft Power Automate or any other low-code toolmodules/power_automate.js
handles pubsub subscriptions for PowerAutomate eventsroutes/investec/special.js
contains several routes specific to Power Automate
FAQs
Can >1 person work on/request to work on a bounty at the same time? How is the decision about who works on it made?
Anyone can go after any bounty - it just depends on who commits first with all the correct criteria.
Is there any time frame for the bounties to be completed in?
Yes, there is. There are Bounty seasons - 3 weekends per bounty season.
What is the engagement model once someone has started working on a bounty?
You can either work on your own and commit for approval as is, or they can join the Slack channel for support and to book a "build session" with a community champion.
What if the person cannot complete the bounty?
Then they donβt complete. Weβll make a call after each season to either roll over any unclaimed bounties and add new ones for the next seasons.
