genesis_fix.rb - Golos Genesis Fix

Golos Genesis Fix (genesis_fix.rb) is a script that will fix your account's json_metadata field, if it looks like this:

{created_at: 'GENESIS'}

To use this Radiator script:

$ sudo apt-get install ruby-full git openssl libssl1.0.0 libssl-dev
$ gem install bundler

$ gem install bundler

I've tested it on various versions of ruby. The oldest one I got it to work was:

ruby 2.0.0p645 (2015-04-13 revision 50299) [x86_64-darwin14.4.0]

First, clone this gist and install the dependencies:

$ git clone https://gist.github.com/814532e66cc4cd537f418ac7f1f420d5.git genesis_fix
$ cd genesis_fix
$ bundle install

Edit genesis_fix.yml, then run it:

$ ruby genesis_fix.rb

Check here to see an updated version of this script:

Typically, you can upgrade to the latest version by this command, from the original directory you cloned into:

$ git pull

Usually, this works fine as long as you haven't modified anything. If you get an error, try this:

$ git stash --all
$ git pull --rebase
$ git stash pop

If you're still having problems, I suggest starting a new clone.

genesis_fix.yml:1: syntax error, unexpected ':', expecting end-of-input

`from_base58': Invalid version (RuntimeError)

Make sure the .yml file account item has the correct account name and WIF active key.
