Title: [Help] A bitcoin balance checker by day Post by: lueo on October 16, 2011, 03:00:43 PM Dear all,
I'd like to write a tool in python that can collect the balance of an BTC addr by day. So that I can display the progress in a line graph. I would like to ask help for: 1. How do I collect day-by-day balance from blockexplore? For example, I need a function that can return the following information to me: (Original information from http://blockexplorer.com/address/1HEmzeuVEKxBQkEenysV1yM8oAddQ4o2TX) Date, Time, balance 2010-10-9, 09:10, 34.9 2010-10-10, 09:15, 36.9 2. How do I convert them into a rrd file? I've searched on the net and I found a tool called pyrrd, have you tried to use it to convert data into a rrd file?

So wget http://blockexplorer.com/q/getreceivedbyaddress/1HEmzeuVEKxBQkEenysV1yM8oAddQ4o2TX each day (cron job ?) and append to a file. Title: Re: [Help] A bitcoin balance checker by day Post by: lueo on October 18, 2011, 12:14:44 PM Dear dogisland,
Thanks for your advice, but what I need to do is to make a chart from the transaction history in the same time, not to record the balance day by day.
