esplora (Block Explorer APIs)
Last updated
Last updated
SANDSHREW hosts a fully-qualified block explorer API within its JSON-RPC which expresses the full suite of functionality surfaced by esplora, the backend developed and used by blockchain.info for their block explorer API. For a developer, the APIs provided by esplora are often desirable, but running a fully-hosted esplora instance is resource-intensive and therefore costly. SANDSHREW provides esplora as part of the fully-hosted cluster to enable serious Bitcoin-powered application deployments without prohibitive dependencies.
Similar to the scheme used for the ord namespace in the SANDSHREW JSON-RPC, the esplora namespace maps a JSON-RPC payload to a REST call to the backend esplora service and proxies its API directly. This translation from JSON-RPC to REST occurs as follows:
For a JSON-RPC payload such as:
{
"jsonrpc": "2.0",
"id": 1,
"method": "esplora_address::txs",
"params": [
"bc1pqu8j3dlfwjkzt6tcx6w2dvf9j4wxku2n7mnp9eawegayu6k6x9xsgsff7n"
]
}The component of the JSON-RPC method following the esplora_namespace prefix is a colon-delimited list of components to the full REST path which is forwarded to the ord HTTP server. For any instance that splitting the JSON-RPC method by the colon character produces an empty string (i.e. there are repeated colons with no characters in between), these are taken to be placeholders for parameters to sequentially occupy, as the full REST path is constructed. Excess parameters within the JSON-RPC payload, for which there is no positional placeholder within the RPC method, are appended to the REST path as additional components.
Thus, the JSON-RPC method esplora_address::txs with parameters set to ["bc1pqu8j3dlfwjkzt6tcx6w2dvf9j4wxku2n7mnp9eawegayu6k6x9xsgsff7n"] maps to GET /address/bc1pqu8j3dlfwjkzt6tcx6w2dvf9j4wxku2n7mnp9eawegayu6k6x9xsgsff7n/txs on the esplora service.
The complete schema for the esplora HTTP server is available on the esplora repository, named for the project from which it is forked (electrs). The exact line of code where this section begins is linked below:
esplora_tx returns detailed information about a specific Bitcoin transaction based on its transaction ID (txid). It provides comprehensive data about the transaction, including inputs, outputs, block information, and any associated inscriptions.

}A script hash is the hash of the binary bytes of the locking script (ScriptPubKey), expressed as a hexadecimal string. The hash function to use is currently sha256().
For example, the legacy Bitcoin address from the genesis block:
const address = '1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa'has P2PKH scriptpubkey:
const script = bitcoin.address.toOutputScript(address)
console.log('script.toString('hex'))
// 76a91462e907b15cbf27d5425399ebf6f0fb50ebb88f1888acwith SHA256 hash, the scripthash:
const hash = bitcoin.crypto.sha256(script)
console.log('Scripthash: ', hash.toString('hex'))
// Scripthash: 6191c3b590bfcfa0475e877c302da1e323497acf3b42c08d8fa28e364edf018bwhich is sent to the server reversed as:
const reversedHash = hash.reverse()
console.log(reversedHash.toString('hex'))
// 8b01df4e368ea28f8dc0423bcf7a4923e3a12d307c875e47a0cfbf90b5c39161By subscribing to this hash you can find P2PK payments to the genesis block public key.

}Get mempool backlog statistics. Returns an object with:
count: the number of transactions in the mempool
vsize: the total size of mempool transactions in virtual bytes
total_fee: the total fee paid by mempool transactions in satoshis
fee_histogram: mempool fee-rate distribution histogram
An array of (feerate, vsize) tuples, where each entry's vsize is the total vsize of transactions paying more than feerate but less than the previous entry's feerate (except for the first entry, which has no upper bound). This matches the format used by the Electrum RPC protocol for mempool.get_fee_histogram.

}In this example, there are transactions weighting a total of 102,131 vbytes that are paying more than 53 sat/vB, 110,990 vbytes of transactions paying between 38 and 53 sat/vB, 138,976 vbytes paying between 34 and 38, etc.
