Get Mempool Contents
This module submits a transaction, reads the contents of the mempool, and then waits for the mempool to empty:
import ogmios
import pycardano as pyc
def submit_transaction():
"""Submit a transaction so we have something in the mempool."""
with pyc.OgmiosV6ChainContext("localhost", 1337) as context:
network = pyc.Network.TESTNET
psk = pyc.PaymentExtendedSigningKey.load("./tests/test_wallet/test_addr0.skey")
ssk = pyc.StakeExtendedSigningKey.load("./tests/test_wallet/test_stake.skey")
pvk = pyc.PaymentVerificationKey.from_signing_key(psk)
svk = pyc.StakeVerificationKey.from_signing_key(ssk)
address = pyc.Address(pvk.hash(), svk.hash(), network)
builder = pyc.TransactionBuilder(context)
builder.add_input_address(address)
builder.add_output(
pyc.TransactionOutput(
address,
pyc.Value.from_primitive(
[
10000000,
]
),
)
)
signed_tx = builder.build_and_sign([psk], change_address=address)
context.submit_tx(signed_tx)
def get_mempool_contents():
"""Get the contents of the mempool and wait for it to be empty."""
with ogmios.Client() as client:
mempool_txs = ogmios.utils.get_mempool_transactions(client)
print(f"Mempool has {len(mempool_txs)} transactions:\n{mempool_txs}")
# Optionally, turn the TX dicts into PyCardano TransactionBody objects
for tx in mempool_txs:
pyc_tx = ogmios.utils.tx_dict_to_pycardano_tx(tx)
print("Waiting for mempool to be empty...")
ogmios.utils.wait_for_empty_mempool(client)
print("Mempool is empty!")
