Title: Full blockchain, search for values on pub-key (using python) Post by: xychix on December 09, 2015, 02:37:52 PM Hello,
I want to be able to do (quite a few more than blockchain.info will allow me) query's on the available bitcoins at a public address. Therefore in the past I'd downloaded the full blockchain using bitcoin-qt and was using bitcoin-abe to place this all in a MySQL database. https://github.com/bitcoin-abe/bitcoin-abe with that solution I could use python to query the coins sources available at a public address. This however requires storing the while blockchain twice (original + mysql). Are there already more efficient ways of doing this? regards, xychix Title: Re: Full blockchain, search for values on pub-key (using python) Post by: achow101 on December 09, 2015, 03:26:43 PM You could directly query the leveldb databases that bitcoin core uses. You can also use the rpc commands that bitcoin core has available.

Just installing a new ubuntu server and will install bitcoin and let that pull in the blockchain. as that would be the way to start anyway :) Title: Re: Full blockchain, search for values on pub-key (using python) Post by: moneyart on December 09, 2015, 07:37:44 PM Quote You can also use the rpc commands Can you tell a little bit more about rpc commands? I didn't find them in the console when I type in help.
