RPC access just with URL?

[drakoin]

Can I access a -qt wallet by just sending a well defined URL?

e.g. something like

Code:

http://localhost:18490/?jsonrpc=1.0&id=urltest&params=[]&method=getinfo

which at the moment only gives an empty page. What is wrong with that?

I ask because with

Code:

http://localhost:18490

I do get a "parse error", which looks promising :-)


(Replace the portnumber 18490 with any other of any currency of which you are running a wallet, of course)

Yes, thanks. That's exactly where I got my inspiration :-)


But how to do the same thing only in the address field of my browser?

e.g. something like

Code:

http://localhost:18490/?jsonrpc=1.0&id=urltest&params=[]&method=getinfo

which at the moment only gives an empty page. What is wrong with that?

or http://localhost:18490/?jsonrpc=1.0&id=urltest&params=[]&method=getmininginfo
or http://localhost:18490/?jsonrpc=1.0&id=urltest&params=[]&method=getbalance
or http://localhost:18490/?jsonrpc=1.0&id=urltest&params=["CTVHuvvdJj61fC1mzFAQ4V1TrYBb8QTpiA","1","enjoy"]&method=sendtoaddress

Possible?  If so, where is my mistake? How to do it?  Anyone?

not possible because RPC doesn't accept GET requests.
