Title: how can i pull transaction data directly from blocks?
Post by: jhansen858 on June 04, 2011, 10:20:38 PM
I would like to set up some scripts to monitor the block chain.  Is there any way to do this directly with php?

Any tips on the best way to get started would be great.  I don't mind parsing logs either but I cant seem to locate the information i need.

You will want Gavin's monitorblocks patch.

I just casually screw around with php mostly... anyone have a debian/ubuntu client that is already patched in package form?

you can get some python code, selling for 1btc, for pulling it out of my project, and opensource it :)
