Unauthenticated REST Interface
|
|
==============================
|
|
|
|
The REST API can be enabled with the `-rest` option.
|
|
|
|
The interface runs on the same port as the JSON-RPC interface, by default port 9998 for mainnet and port 19998 for testnet.
|
|
|
|
Supported API
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
#### Transactions
|
|
`GET /rest/tx/<TX-HASH>.<bin|hex|json>`
|
|
|
|
Given a transaction hash: returns a transaction in binary, hex-encoded binary, or JSON formats.
|
|
|
|
For full TX query capability, one must enable the transaction index via "txindex=1" command line / configuration option.
|
|
|
|
#### Blocks
|
|
`GET /rest/block/<BLOCK-HASH>.<bin|hex|json>`
|
|
`GET /rest/block/notxdetails/<BLOCK-HASH>.<bin|hex|json>`
|
|
|
|
Given a block hash: returns a block, in binary, hex-encoded binary or JSON formats.
|
|
Responds with 404 if the block doesn't exist.
|
|
|
|
The HTTP request and response are both handled entirely in-memory, thus making maximum memory usage at least 2.66MB (1 MB max block, plus hex encoding) per request.
|
|
|
|
With the /notxdetails/ option JSON response will only contain the transaction hash instead of the complete transaction details. The option only affects the JSON response.
|
|
|
|
#### Blockheaders
|
|
`GET /rest/headers/<COUNT>/<BLOCK-HASH>.<bin|hex|json>`
|
|
|
|
Given a block hash: returns <COUNT> amount of blockheaders in upward direction.
|
|
Returns empty if the block doesn't exist or it isn't in the active chain.
|
|
|
|
#### Blockhash by height
|
|
`GET /rest/blockhashbyheight/<HEIGHT>.<bin|hex|json>`
|
|
|
|
Given a height: returns hash of block in best-block-chain at height provided.
|
|
|
|
#### Chaininfos
|
|
`GET /rest/chaininfo.json`
|
|
|
|
Returns various state info regarding block chain processing.
|
|
Only supports JSON as output format.
|
|
* chain : (string) current network name as defined in BIP70 (main, test, regtest)
|
|
* blocks : (numeric) the current number of blocks processed in the server
|
|
* headers : (numeric) the current number of headers we have validated
|
|
* bestblockhash : (string) the hash of the currently best block
|
|
* difficulty : (numeric) the current difficulty
|
|
* mediantime : (numeric) the median time of the 11 blocks before the most recent block on the blockchain
|
|
* verificationprogress : (numeric) estimate of verification progress [0..1]
|
|
* chainwork : (string) total amount of work in active chain, in hexadecimal
|
|
* pruned : (boolean) if the blocks are subject to pruning
|
|
* pruneheight : (numeric) highest block available
|
|
* softforks : (array) status of softforks in progress
|
|
* bip9_softforks : (object) status of BIP9 softforks in progress
|
|
|
|
#### Query UTXO set
|
|
`GET /rest/getutxos/<checkmempool>/<txid>-<n>/<txid>-<n>/.../<txid>-<n>.<bin|hex|json>`
|
|
|
|
The getutxo command allows querying of the UTXO set given a set of outpoints.
|
|
See BIP64 for input and output serialisation:

|
|
Example:
|
|
```
|
|
$ curl localhost:19998/rest/getutxos/checkmempool/b2cdfd7b89def827ff8af7cd9bff7627ff72e5e8b0f71210f92ea7a4000c5d75-0.json 2>/dev/null | json_pp

|
#### Memory pool
|
|
`GET /rest/mempool/info.json`
|
|
|
|
Returns various information about the TX mempool.
|
|
Only supports JSON as output format.
|
|
* size : (numeric) the number of transactions in the TX mempool
|
|
* bytes : (numeric) size of the TX mempool in bytes
|
|
* usage : (numeric) total TX mempool memory usage
|
|
* maxmempool : (numeric) maximum memory usage for the mempool in bytes
|
|
* mempoolminfee : (numeric) minimum feerate (DASH per KB) for tx to be accepted
|
|
|
|
`GET /rest/mempool/contents.json`
|
|
|
|
Returns transactions in the TX mempool.
|
|
Only supports JSON as output format.
|
|
|
|
Risks
|
|
-------------
|
|
Running a web browser on the same node with a REST enabled dashd can be a risk. Accessing prepared XSS websites could read out tx/block data of your node by placing links like `<script src="http://127.0.0.1:19998/rest/tx/1234567890.json">` which might break the nodes privacy.
