Monero: [Request] add transaction decoding to wallet-rpc

Created on 2 Oct 2019  路  6Comments  路  Source: monero-project/monero

It would be very helpful to be able to validate transactions signed in cold storage prior to broadcast. (Basically, a last minute sanity check in the view wallet).

Input: a signed transaction hex,
Output: recipient address, tx amount, and fee. Alternatively, the meta-data that the daemon-rpc returns for get_transactions.

I think someone is paid to update the docs from time to time so it'll get there.

AFAIK currently nobody is paid or have an open CCS proposal for that. An update of the dev guides is very needed tho, so if somebody wants to take care of that, please do. I would also totally support a CCS with that goal.

If you find other important stuff is missing in the docs, plese open an issue on gitlab or let us know somehow, so we can keep track of what needs to be updated. In the meantime i opened an issue about this one.

Do you know about describe_transfer, and does it not fit your needs ?

Yes! Thank you @moneromooo-monero. Do you know when describe_transfer will be added to monero-wallet-rpc? The current wallet documentation does not mention this function. https://web.getmonero.org/resources/developer-guides/wallet-rpc.html

It was added in the past. Is it not working ?

@mirathewhite it's just not documented in the guide. describe_transfer takes a string parameter of either unsigned_txset or multisig_txset.

Already exists. I think someone is paid to update the docs from time to time so it'll get there.
