This Python 3 library provides a parser for the raw data stored by bitcoind.
- Returns blocks in an unordered fashion or in the main chain order
- Detects outputs types
- Detects addresses in outputs
- Interprets scripts
import sys
from blockchain_parser.blockchain import Blockchain
# Instanciate the Blockchain by giving the path to the directory
# containing the .blk files created by bitcoind
blockchain = Blockchain(sys.argv[1])
for block in blockchain.get_unordered_blocks():
for tx in block.transactions:
for no, output in enumerate(tx.outputs):
print("tx=%s outputno=%d type=%s value=%s" % (tx.hash, no, output.type, output.value))Requirements : python-bitcoinlib, coverage for tests
To install, just run
python setup.py install
