[bitcoin] Auto generate new block when broadcast Bitcoin tx in local network #2651

Open jolestar opened 2 months ago

jolestar commented 2 months ago

Proposal Details

On the Bitcoin regtest network, developers need to manually trigger a new block via the bitcoin-cli generatetoaddress command.

Some examples are in the document Bitcoin local development environment and test cases in bitseed and bitcoin.

We can auto-generate a new block when broadcasting Bitcoin tx via RPC

Note: this only available for Roch local network and Bitcoin regtest network.

Maybe I can have a try on this one?

@jolestar Hi, I’ve just started looking into this issue and wanted to clarify. When you mentioned “auto-generate new block,” did you mean that after the client requests to broadcast a transaction, it should then send an additional request to generate a new block?

If that’s the case, could you provide some guidance on where the logic for packaging transactions into a block is implemented? That would help me get started, thanks!

The bitcoin cli generates a new block via a command; it should be an RPC request.

bitcoin-cli generatetoaddress 1 <address>

Make this TBD after discussing it with @wfnuser.
