testnet : A small replica of bitcoin for developers to test their app without real money.
We use bitcoin-cli command to communicate with a node. It is a command line utility.
In this course we use >testnet rather than >bitcoin-cli.
/
>testnet help
>mainnet help
Prints all the commands to use in testnet or mainnet
/
>testnet help getblockchaininfo
Gets the help for the related command
/
>testnet getblockchaininfo
Makes the query with the method for the testnet. mainnet for the actual chain
/
>mainnet getmininginfo
Gives the mining info
/
Check how the nodes talk with each other from https://bitcoin.org/en/developer-reference#protocol-versions
This changes from version to version. ipv4 / ipv6 / onion
/
>testnet getwalletinfo
Gives the wallet info
/
>testnet listtransactions
The transactions related to wallet
/
Code to connect to node
If you don't have bitcoinrpc install it with pip:
pip install python-bitcoinrpc
/
Code:
from bitcoinrpc.authproxy import AuthServiceProxy
