sendtx is a Python module for sending Bitcoin transaction directly to the Bitcoin network.
What: This module broadcast given bitcoin transaction into Bitcoin network using just P2P connection to some trusted Bitcoin node.
Why: No bitcoind patches needed anymore..
How: Library creates two connections to the trusted node: One listen for new transactions on the network, second sends serialized transaction to the network. Trusted node make internal checks and if the transaction is valid, it accepts the transaction into it's memory pool and rebroadcast it to connected peers... ...so when our second (checking) connection sniff our txhash on the bitcoin network, we have a confirmation that the transaction has been succesfully accepted by the network.
This library is built on top of ArtForz's half node with some modifications for Twisted framework. For this reason I'm using the hack with subprocess module, so calling application don't need to care about Twisted stuff.
Commandline example: ./sendtx.py localhost 01000000015210999277896...0000000 Script returns exit code '42' on success.
Python script example:
!/usr/bin/python
import sendtx try: sendtx.process('localhost', '01000000015210999277896...0000000') except: print "Broadcast failed"
