This library is a local tracker of transactions for the Ethereum chain and the Binance Smart chain. It is a simple interface with the etherscan and the bscscan APIs and will save locally the results to gain time and avoid over-calling the APIs.

Announcement

If you previously used this library with a version inferior to 0.1.3, please head here to correct a potential bug in the database.

Quick Tour

You will need to generate an API token to use this library. Go on etherscan for the Ethereum chain and on bscscan for the BSC chain. (If you want to use both chains, you will need an API token for each).

ScanWatch is available on PYPI, install with pip:

pip install ScanWatch

You can also install the latest developments (not stable):

pip install git+https://github.com/EtWnn/ScanWatch.git@develop

You can then use your API token to instantiate the manager.

Example for Ethereum:

from ScanWatch.ScanManager import ScanManager
from ScanWatch.utils.enums import NETWORK

api_token = "<ETH_API_TOKEN>"
address = "<YOUR_ETH_ADDRESS>"

manager = ScanManager(address, NETWORK.ETHER, api_token)

Example for BSC:

from ScanWatch.ScanManager import ScanManager
from ScanWatch.utils.enums import NETWORK

api_token = "<BSC_API_TOKEN>"
address = "<YOUR_BSC_ADDRESS>"

manager = ScanManager(address, NETWORK.BSC, api_token)

Once the manager is setup, you can update the locally saved transactions:

manager.update_all_transactions()
# all transactions updated for address 0xaAC...748E8: 100%|████████████| 4/4 [00:02<00:00,  1.86it/s]

This needs to be done only when new transactions have been made since the last time you called the update method. Otherwise you can just fetch the transactions that have been previously saved, as shown below (see the documentation for more details).

from ScanWatch.utils.enums import TRANSACTION

manager.get_transactions(TRANSACTION.NORMAL)  # normal transactions

manager.get_transactions(TRANSACTION.ERC20)  # erc20 transactions

manager.get_transactions(TRANSACTION.ERC721)  # erc721 transactions

manager.get_transactions(TRANSACTION.INTERNAL)  # internal transactions

Main / test nets

If you want to switch from main to test nets, you can specify the net name at the manager creation:

manager = ScanManager(address, <network>, api_token, <net_name>)
Supported nets are:
  • For Ethereum: "main", "goerli", "kovan", "rinkeby", "ropsten"
  • For BSC: "main", "test"
