Subject: [Bitcoin-development] [ANN] pynode: Simple bitcoin P2P node
Date: Sun, 22 Jul 2012 15:16:59 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CA+8xBpcxHUqQCjwnS5C0Or--mjo8jaNrbR5rjT=BBAT2r9Vs4g@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Github URL: https://github.com/jgarzik/pynode
pynode is a simple bitcoin P2P client, based on ArtForz' half-a-node,
which maintains a blockchain database and TX memory pool.
It is intended to be a useful base for another projects, such as
network monitoring nodes.
At present, it is mainly for developers and not end users. Here is
what pynode does NOT do:
* RPC
* key management (wallet)
* script verification
* chain re-org
Here are the limited things that pynode can do at present:
* Outgoing TCP connection to a single remote P2P node
* Initial blockchain download
* Maintain a transaction memory pool, with TX's removed as they are
confirmed in blocks
* Maintain an indexed blockchain database
Over time it will become more capable, but this is an alpha quality
release for developers at present.
Contributions welcome! It is intended to become a full, wallet-less
node over time (though if somebody wanted to contribute a wallet
module, that is OK too)
