Package: ethereumd-proxy
ethereumd-proxyProxy client-server for Ethereum node using JSON-RPC interface.Why?Mostly popular cryptocurrencies usually are forks of Bitcoin and all of them support Bitcoin protocol for communication with their full nodes. Ethereum go hard by own way and made own API for that. This library is a proxy to Ethereum node which implement many API methods like in bitcoind. Also it have signals like blocknotify and walletnotify.
All these features are implemented by ethereumd-proxy using polling and other techniques behind the scene.InstallationPython 3.5+ required.First you need Geth/Parity or any other ethereum node (for listening). Tested on Geth 1.6.7 and used in production.Installation$pipinstallethereumd-proxyUsageIt is the same as bitcoin-cli. Except it is not a node runner, just simple proxy for listening actual node.Available command list:$ethereum-cli-helpTo start proxy server use:$ethereum-cli-datadir=<path_to_your_dir_with_node_and_ethereum.conf>-daemonTo stop server:$ethereum-cli-datadir=<path_to_your_dir_with_node_and_ethereum.conf>stopAlso can be used as python client connector:importasyncioimportethereumdloop=asyncio.get_event_loop()asyncdefgo():client=awaitethereumd.create_ethereumd_proxy('http://localhost:8545',loop=loop)val=awaitclient.validateaddress('0x6cace0528324a8afc2b157ceba3cdd2a27c4e21f')print(val)# will print {'isvalid': True, 'address': '0x6cace0528324a8afc2b157ceba3cdd2a27c4e21f', 'scriptPubKey': 'hex', 'ismine': False, 'iswatchonly': False, 'isscript': False, 'pubkey': '0x6cace0528324a8afc2b157ceba3cdd2a27c4e21f', 'iscompressed': False, 'timestamp': None}address=awaitclient.getnewaddress(passphrase='admin')print(address)# will print address like '0x137dd92be1d986eb3af023d0fb6fa8436c3ee5f8'loop.run_until_complete(go())Implemented JSON-RPC methodsUtilWalletBlockchainvalidateaddressgetbalancegetblockhashestimatefeesettxfeegetdifficultylistaccountsgetblockcountgettransactiongetbestblockhashsendfromgetblocksendtoaddresswalletlockwalletpassphrasegetnewaddressPlanned add more methods as soon as possible.
