1 2014-02-20 00:23:45 <Keverw> Hey. I'm trying to use MacDeploy and getting "Could not import appscript which is required for fancy disk images." yet I installed appscript and even rebooted. Any ideas why?
2 2014-02-20 00:25:13 <analogrithems> Hey I'm working on an a project where I query the block chain in elastic search and I'm wondering if their is an easy way to dump the block chain from bitcoind. Also for the bootstrap.dat where can I find a mapping definition for the format?
3 2014-02-20 00:26:28 <analogrithems> or can anyone recommend a good method in perl, C, or php for dumping the the block chain?
4 2014-02-20 00:28:24 <freewil> using bitcoind you can use the rpc commands getblockhash <index> and getblock <hash>
5 2014-02-20 00:28:58 <freewil> if you just start by calling getblock <hash> with the genesis block then i think the output will give you the output of the next block
6 2014-02-20 00:29:28 <freewil> correction: the hash of the next block
7 2014-02-20 00:31:30 <sipa> bootstrap.dat is just a concatenation of blocks in network format
8 2014-02-20 00:31:52 <sipa> each preceeded by an 8-byte header: 4 bytes network magic, and 4 byte block length
9 2014-02-20 00:37:56 <analogrithems> freewil: thanks
10 2014-02-20 00:38:44 <analogrithems> sipa: thanks, but what about the script part and confirmation? Or does that not get stored in the final block chain?
11 2014-02-20 00:39:24 <sipa> analogrithems: confirmations == the number of blocks on top of a block
12 2014-02-20 00:39:38 <sipa> analogrithems: and the scripts are within the outputs of transactions inside the block
13 2014-02-20 00:40:16 <analogrithems> awesome guys thanks
14 2014-02-20 02:55:23 <tlrobinson> anyone have a relatively simple bug they want to throw my way to get my feet wet contributing?
