I have got the api working and i can run commands like

access = AuthServiceProxy("http://root:[email protected]:8332")
access.getinfo()

However not sure how to use more complicated commands such as: move "fromaccount" "toaccount" amount ( minconf "comment" )

Tried something like this, but i get a syntax error in python.

name = "bob"
name2 = "sam"
balance = 0.0001
access.move(name name2 balance)

Doing it like this i get JSONRPCException:

name = "bob"
name2 = "sam"
balance = 0.0001
access.move('%s' '%s' '%s'), (name, name2, balance)

Any help appreciated.

  • Do bob and sam represent accounts in your bitcoin-core wallet?

  • yes, those accounts exist. Commented Apr 20, 2015 at 12:46
  • try this one: acess.move(name, name2, balance), Sam and Bob should be bitcoin address.

Try this:

Steps to transfer bitcoin from Sam to Bob:

  • Create a python script to connect to Sam's RPC server. Suppose Sam's IP is 172.28.128.4

    from jsonrpc import ServiceProxy
    access = ServiceProxy("http://user:[email protected]:8332")
    print(access.sendtoaddress(Bob's_Bitcoin_Address, Transfer_Balance))

    • I have an environmental variable called BTCRPCURL which allows ServiceProxy(os.environ.get("BTCRCURL")) Commented Apr 21, 2015 at 2:42
