GET raw transaction hex from whatsonchain suddenly returning 404 for un-confirmed transactions #69

Open owenkellogg opened 1 year ago

Example: https://api.whatsonchain.com/v1/bsv/main/tx/f6c503d1f56cb937a074feb942f9c67f1696a79f6a7e27c61125a5f3deeba29e/hex

While in the mempool this is returning 404 and no content whatsoever.

However its counterpart without the /hex at the end gives the transaction but not the entire transaction.

https://api.whatsonchain.com/v1/bsv/main/tx/f6c503d1f56cb937a074feb942f9c67f1696a79f6a7e27c61125a5f3deeba29e

One solution is to update the function that imports jobs/proofs by txid to instead get the latter endpoint and then go through each output script hex and attempt to parse a job or a proof.

All that said it might be most effective to go with posting the entire transaction hex rather than posting the txid itself, that way we can always import it first or broadcast it then import it. Ultimately the existing method to import jobs by txid was a convenience function and can be better re-enforced.
