So is this beem thing just for node discovery, or can it sign and broadcast arbitrary transactions?

I've been looking for a transaction signer since I joined Steem. I want to make an open source application front end for my favorite social medium, which is now Hive.

I'd prefer Java, but I'm sure I can somehow work around it if this actually works for signing any transaction.

```
Options:
  -s, --show              Prints the updated nodes
  -t, --hive              Use only HIVE nodes, when set to true.
  -t, --test              Do change the node list, only print the newest nodes
                          setup.
```

There is a typo in your optparse. `-t, --hive` conflicts with `-t,--test`.

So great to see so many great DApps launching on Hive!
I'm discovering DApps that I didn't know about when they were on Steem, like hive.invite.

@holger80, This is excellent news. Well, I had seen your comment but this makes a lot more clear.


On a different note, Can beem support other Graphene chains like Bitshares and Peerplays without much modifications ? I was thinking of exploring it and if you have done work already it will be helpful.

Used your library. Thanks a lot!

Great news! More support to #HIVE!

  I am trying to get around using hivesigner.  Does Beem require hivesigner for offline posting?

Welcome back :)

Awesome stuff! I love how we're all collaborating to build Hive.

Great work, but - as you asked me - according to my own new rule I flag posts with pending rewards > 80 dollars.

python lib, very good

:DDDD amazing welcome back

yo guys i think the market function is not fully working though you can get some of it to work by specifying the currency
from beem import Steem
from beem.account import Account
from beembase import operations

dex2=Market("HBD:HIVE",steem_instance=trading)
also @crokkon and I found a work around for the convert and sell function:

def convert(sbd):
    op = operations.Convert( **{
    'owner': "maxsieg",
    'requestid': randint(0,100),
    'amount': ""+str(sbd) +" SBD",
    'prefix': trading.prefix
    })
    tx = trading.finalizeOp(op, acc, "active")


def sell(steem,exp):
    op=operations.Limit_order_create( **{
            "owner":"maxsieg",
            "orderid": randint(0,100),
            "amount_to_sell": str(round(steem-0.0005,3))+" STEEM",
            "min_to_receive": str(round(steem*sellrate()-0.0005,3))+" SBD",
            "fill_or_kill": False,
            "expiration":(datetime.utcnow()+timedelta(seconds=exp)).strftime("%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S"),
            'prefix': trading.prefix
            })
    tx = trading.finalizeOp(op, acc, "active")

i was stuck on the last one for quite a while and the last few minutes aswell because i couldnt spell receive... trading is my beem instance and acc is my beem account, all be including active keyz

also my asterix characters is not fully showing up in peakd

welcome back @holger80

can you make it, so we could import:

```
from beem import Hive
```

? 

Steem will be misleading and what is not less important, I do not want to have "Steem" in my source code anymore :P

When I use the following code to complete the transfer
> from beem.account import Account
from beem import Steem
active_wif = "5xxxx"
stm = Steem(keys=[active_wif])
acc = Account("test", steem_instance=stm)
acc.transfer("test1", 1, "HIVE", "test")

 there are always errors：
> beemapi.exceptions.MissingRequiredActiveAuthority

My Python version is 2.7
I'm sure my active-key is correct

Welcome back! 

@nextcolony on HIVE dyou know?!

Woah so happy to see you posting!! 

Good to see you back 

When using Comment() getting AttributeError: 'Amount' object has no attribute 'split' from line 99 in comment.py.

thanks for your work... I just updated beem I was using since a while already and when I try to upvote I get this error 'PointJacobi' object has no attribute '_Point__x'

Really appreciate it! :) So quick
