Title: watch_address - response Post by: trepidant on April 29, 2015, 08:26:00 PM Hello it seems that the scripts have not been updated in a while as the ones I tested return errors.
Anyway, the script I want to use is the watch_address one , so I start it up and on an update it returns a 64-length string. I looked up the string on block explorers and found nothing also tried to decode it in various ways. What does this string mean? ex - 4952fff4bfec7ff92ac25218d467edfb4e1915e80c6ab962276a5395c1a2f8b6 How can I properly decode this into a txid or something I can use. I tried to look into the electrum-server source code to find the answer but honestly got a little lost in the code.

When an update occurs, the result is a hash of the entire tx history. To determine what changed, you need to do a get_history. The idea is that wallet software can cache the result from watch_address, and only issue a get_history when the hash changes. |
