TicketPick: Real-Time Event Ticket Marketplace TicketPick is a real-time ticket marketplace built on the Dutch auction model. The platform enables event organizers to sell tickets for events such as concerts, sports matches, and more. Prices for tickets drop over time, incentivizing early buyers while providing an engaging way for users to purchase tickets at the best possible price. Features Dutch Auction Model: Prices start at a maximum value and decrease over time until a bidder accepts the price. Ticket Auctions: Event organizers (auctioneers) can create and manage ticket auctions. Real-Time Bidding: Users can place bids at the current auction price to purchase tickets. Flexible Seat Selection: Users can select specific seats based on availability. Anti-Scalping Measures: Measures to verify users and prevent scalping practices. Instant Payments: Integration with digital wallets for fast and secure payments. Requirements Move Language: The code is written using the Move programming language, deployed on the Sui blockchain. Git: For version control and managing repository updates. Sui Wallet: Integration with Sui's digital wallet for transactions. Installation Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/soss28/ticketpick.git cd ticketpick Install Move toolchain (if you haven't already). Instructions can be found on the official Move documentation. Ensure that you have a Sui wallet setup to interact with the platform. Usage Deploying the Smart Contract Compile the Move contract and deploy it to the Sui blockchain: sui move compile --path <path-to-your-move-code> Deploy the contract: sui client publish --path <path-to-your-move-code> Interact with the contract through the Move command line or via the Sui client. Example Interaction Creating a new auction: An event organizer can create a new ticket auction by specifying the ticket price and available seats. let auction = ticketpick::auction::create(ticket, 1000) Bidding on tickets: Users can place a bid when the auction price meets their expectations: let result = ticketpick::auction::bid(auction, balance) Claiming auction proceeds: After the auction ends, the auctioneer can claim the proceeds: let claim = ticketpick::auction::claim(auction, auctioneer_cap) Error Codes EAuctionHasEnded: Auction has already ended. EAuctionHasNotEnded: Auction is still ongoing. EBalanceNotEnough: The user's balance is insufficient to place a bid. ENewPriceMustBeLower: The new price set by the auctioneer must be lower than the current price. EAuctionIDMismatch: Mismatch between the auction ID and the provided auction capability.
