Understanding the APC interface in Bitcoin Core
Call Call Call Call Call (RPC) is a key element of Bitcoin Protocol that allows programmers to interact with the bitcoin network outside the main application. In this article, we deepen the details of the RPC API interface, providing a resource that describes it more depth.
What is the RPC API?
RPC API allows developers to call features in Bitcoin Nodes using HTTP or Websocket Protocols. These features can be used to perform different tasks, such as:
- Verification of the validity of the node
- Download transaction information
- Extract new blocks
- Create new addresses
Documentation API RPC Bitcoin RPC
In order to get a complete understanding of the API RPC interface, we recommend that you check the official Bitcoin basic documentation [1]. In particular, RPC’s API contains detailed explanations and examples of different features.
RPC API structure
Each RPC APC endpoint consists of the following components:
URL
: URL Node for Interaction
Method ': Function name to be called
- Params
: All additional data required by the feature (optional)
Titles: Optional headers that can be donated to the feature
Example use
Here's an example of using the RPC APC interface to download transaction information:
Bash
Get /transactions? Count = 10 I OFFSET = 0 http /1.1
This command will restore 10 new transactions from the bitcoin network and return the results to the JSON format.
API RPC features
The official basic Bitcoin documentation includes a list of APC APC’s available features, which can be found on GitHub.com/Bitcoin/Core/Blob/Master/DOC/RPC.MD
. Some examples include:
- `
Getblocktmplate ()
: Downloads the most template on a block
GetBlockchaininfo ()
: Download information about construction blockchain
- `
Getmininginfo ()
: Downloads mining information
App
API RPC is a powerful tool for interacting with a bitcoin network outside the main application. Understanding how to use this API interface, developers can build solid and scale applications that use the power of the Bitcoin Protocol.
