Simple API around Blockchain.info to: get address balance, get UTXOs, and push transactions.
Install
npm i --save blockchain-api-basic
Usage
Require the api:
const bcApi = require('blockchain-api-basic')
const balance = bcApi.balance
const utxos = bcApi.utxos
const pushTx = bcApi.pushTx
- balance(address)
Retreives the balance of a given address
;(async () => {
const bal = await balance(address)
console.log("balance:", bal)
// => balance: 9754600 (satoshis)
})()
- utxos(address)
Retrieves all the unspent transaction outputs for a given address:
const outputs = await utxos(address)
console.log("UTXOs:", outputs)
// => UTXOs: [ { tx_hash: ... }, {...} ]
(note I'm omitting async from this example)
- pushTx(tx_hash)
const rawTX = "...." // your raw tx - for example you can create a transaction by using bitcoinjslib or bitcore and then serialize the transaction to get the raw tx in hex format
const response = await pushtx(rawTX)
console.log("push tx response:", response)
Enjoy!
