Tendermint Console

Tendermint console, a wrapper over 'tendermint' node.js package (https://github.com/nomic-io/js-tendermint).

How to Use

• Have node installed, preferably > v10 (to use await in repl).
• Install tendermint package: npm install tendermint or npm install -g tendermint.

Then, run the following

$ ./tendermint-console.js ws://localhost:26657

If a url, e.g. ws://localhost:26657 is given as a command line option, it'll connect to the given server and return the connection as link global variable. Otherwise, one can make a connection as follows.

> var link = connect('ws://localhost:26657')

For the list of commands that are available, refer to the source and the above tendermint node.js package repository.

Select Commands

Get Peers

> link.netInfo().then(log)
or
> var peers = await link.peers(); peers

Get Block

A block by height

> var b = await link.block({ height: 10000 }); b.block.header.height

The latest block

> link.block().then(log)

Get Transaction

By hex or base64 transaction hash

> await link.getTx(hash)

By base64 transaction hash

> await link.tx({hash: hash, prove: true})

Get TPS

To get transactions per seconds.

# args
#   ix:         starting block if > 0, or number of blocks to go back if < 0
#   count:      number of blocks to aggregate
#   skip_zeros: do not print if an aggregate doesn't have any transactions
> link.viewTps(-1000000, 100, true).then(log)

Import this into spreadsheets to get a nice looking graph.
