Description:

pyetherscan 0.1.2

pyetherscan
An unofficial wrapper for the Etherscan API.


Installation
We recommend you install this library in a new virtual environment.
To install, create a new etherscan account and
make note of your API key. Then install the library by running:
pip install pyetherscan
After installation, there are two main ways to set your API key. The first
is by creating a configuration file named .pyetherscan.ini and
saving it in your home directory. The format for this file is as follows:
[Credentials]
ETHERSCAN_API_KEY: YourApiKeyToken
The second is by setting the environment variable ETHERSCAN_API_KEY.
If you do not use either option, the package will connect to the ropsten test
chain via the Etherscan API by default.


Usage
There are two main ways to use the library. The first is via the Client
object to interact directly with the Etherscan API.
In [1]: from pyetherscan import Client

In [2]: client = Client()

In [3]: address = '0xde0b295669a9fd93d5f28d9ec85e40f4cb697bae'

In [4]: address_balance = client.get_single_balance(address)

In [5]: address_balance.response_status_code
Out[5]: 200

In [6]: address_balance.message
Out[6]: 'OK'

In [7]: address_balance.balance
Out[7]: 748997604382925139479303
The second is to use pyetherscan objects which fully abstract the API. These
objects can be found in the pyetherscan.ethereum module and include:


Transaction
Address
Block
Token


For example:
In [1]: from pyetherscan import Address

In [2]: address = '0xde0b295669a9fd93d5f28d9ec85e40f4cb697bae'

In [3]: ethereum_address = Address(address)

In [4]: ethereum_address.balance
Out[4]: 748997604382925139479303.0

In [4]: for txn in ethereum_address.transactions:
...: print(txn.value)
