    -alertnotify=<cmd>    Execute command when a relevant alert is received or we see a really long fork (%s in cmd is replaced by message)
   -blocknotify=<cmd>    Execute command when the best block changes (%s in cmd is replaced by block hash)
    -walletnotify=<cmd>    Execute command when a wallet transaction changes (%s in cmd is replaced by TxID)


So for individual transactions, you would want to use walletnotify, eg:

Code:

bitcoind -walletnotify=/path/to/script.php %s

Then in script.php, you could do something like:

Code:

<?php
$tx = $argv[1];
$txinfo = json_decode( `bitcoin-cli gettransaction $tx` );
if( $txinfo['confirmations'] >= 3 ) {
    // update mysql if necessary.
}

of course with sanitization, error checks, etc....   ;-)


If you are likely to have more than one tx in a given block, a more efficient way to do it can be to include the block-hash with the tx in the db, so you can look up all tx by block.  Then use blocknotify instead of walletnotify.


edit:  and don't forget that the txid can change due to transaction malleability.

how much times wallet notify call script.php ?
 

[belcher]

-walletnotify will run twice per transaction, when it's first seen on the network as unconfirmed, and when it gets it's first confirmation.

To track more than one confirmation you need to use -blocknotify

after first confirmation payment not lost?

i use gettransaction($txid);

how get my wallet address for receiving? (this method get payer wallet address only)

[Alaki]

i use gettransaction($txid);

how get my wallet address for receiving? (this method get payer wallet address only)

Run this command->

Code:

getaccountaddress <account>

. This'll return the current bitcoin address for receiving payments to this account. If <account> does not exist, it will be created along with an associated new address that'll be returned.
P.S.-> "getaccountaddress" will return the same address until coins are received on that address; once coins have been received, it will generate and return a new address.

ok.

i generated 2 addresses getaccountaddress();
after i send btc to 1 new generated address.

and call gettransaction($txid);

how get address of 2 addresses that received payemnt?

You mean listing your addresses that've received payment(in the past)? Yep that's possible as well. Run this command->

Code:

listreceivedbyaddress

. Basically, it lists only addresses that already 've received transactions. However, you can list all the addresses by setting the first argument to 0, and the second one to true->

Code:

listreceivedbyaddress 0 true

There is no simple way to get the "sending address"[1]. You have to check the inputs, but more often than not there will be several inputs. Its better to let the user set an address you store in your database along with their other information.

Code:

txid = dc8697d1afd6c7ac2f667cd3239e19bf227a7b5ce8be64b2f8bb3c626979425b # "random" one from the block to the hash that Polyatomic posted.
raw_tx = getrawtransaction(txid)
decoded_tx = decoderawtransaction(raw_tx)

within decoded_tx you will find a "vin" section with a value "vout" and a txid. If you check each of the txids you will see that they have a "vout" section. The outputs that created the inputs that are used in the TX you received. Find the one where "vout" matches "n" and look up its address. In this example there are 4 inputs, all "from" the address "1NgrpJJj2PMj9RsHutVK7vf8dchcpfM4YZ", but you need to decide how you want to handle different addresses.

IIRC the data is mixed formatted, arrays within JSON, but that might be different for PHP.

Secondstrade do have a notice board[1] that'll(can) answer your above question. Basically, you'll not receive your payment if you do make a bet(transaction) with multiple(or >2) input addresses(&/or a shared wallet) AFAIK.

AFAIK they do it in this crude way, same as most ponzi "games". If they warn you not to use certain wallets, they almost always just assume which is your address. This can fail horribly if your customer/user uses a wallet where they share addresses with others or use something like CoinJoin. A common example for shared wallets are most exchanges. You have your own deposit address, but when you withdraw the coins come from a different address. If you return coins to the address they came from they will be credited to a different account (if at all).

You are asking "who" but there is no such info on the blockchain. The inputs the TX uses have been received on two addresses, which is exactly what I warned you about. There is no right answer to this. Its possible that the sender controls both, one or none of the addresses the coins came "from".

That one has a confirmed double spend -> https://blockchain.info/tx/3a07b7957cf29d267cd8c20fbd5eb8824366096e09d722d888ce635098851b70

The inputs the TXs use came from a single address '15iET5Zp3GdXkp2sbUvsenUysFCAzoW1Fq', but same here its possible that the person behind the coins controls it or not.

how resolve this problem?
what function rpc-api need use?

i need know sender wallet for refund amount..

[danda]

If you potentially need to send refunds then the only correct way is to ask the user to provide a refund address at the time of payment.

The concept of a single guaranteed "from address" simply does not exist in bitcoin.
