ncurses front-end for bitcoind
produced by Amphibian (azeteki, atelopus_zeteki)
- tested with python 2.7.3, bitcoind 0.9.2.1
- jgarzik's bitcoinrpc library (https://github.com/jgarzik/python-bitcoinrpc)
- updating ticker showing bitcoind's status (via RPC)
- facility to view transactions in current block and trace back through their inputs (with -txindex)
pretty bare bones for now; expect breakage. this will improve over time.
rename example.conf to bitcoind-ncurses.conf and enter your details.
the program will die hard if the config file is incorrect or it fails to connect.
this will be improved in a later release.
Replace 'python' with 'python2' if you also have python3 installed.
$ python main.py
$ python main.py -c some_other_config_file.conf
- improve CPU efficiency; change polling method to use interrupts more
- handle all crashes such that terminal returns to a sane state
- mean block size/tx count over last X blocks
- fee estimation / fee data
- bandwidth chart
- transaction creation support (if I feel suicidal)
- more testing for edge cases (paramount for above)
found bitcoind-ncurses useful? donations are your way of showing that!
my main machine is currently a 6 year old Atom laptop. upgrading that would be rather useful. cheers!
