Thanks for that.
Documentation, instead of reading the code, would be useful.

You'll need to take that up with the devs...

Based on what HCP posted,
Can't you just use

Code:

listaddresses(true,false,false,false,true,false)

which will get all of the receiving addresses that aren't frozen or with labells or bitcoin in them and have not been used...

He said it didn't work... I've tested it and it "sort of" works... But perhaps not as one might imagine... So I think the definition of "unused" is slightly different to what the OP is expecting.

Also, note that you need to use True and False... Capitalisation is important. Wink

Thanks for that.
Documentation, instead of reading the code, would be useful.

Also the error reporting from the console is, how can I put it politely, sub-optimal.
"Traceback (most recent call last):" tells me absolutely nothing useful when (not if) I make a mistake.

For my use I think I need this:

Code:

listaddresses(True,False,False,False,True)

Because I don't want to re-use addrresses ... but it returns 14407 rows the same as listaddresses(True)

So it appears that this code:

Code:

for addr in self.wallet.get_addresses():
if frozen and not self.wallet.is_frozen(addr):
continue
if receiving and self.wallet.is_change(addr):
continue
if change and not self.wallet.is_change(addr):
continue
if unused and self.wallet.is_used(addr):
continue
if funded and self.wallet.is_empty(addr):
continue
item = addr

Doesn't work.
Because unused was passed as True and it returns the same list as when left as default (=False).
So perhaps self.wallet.is_used() doesn't mean what I guess it does.

By adding random parentheses to a non-working example, I found this gets the unused addresses as well:

Code:

print ("\n".join(i for i in wallet.get_receiving_addresses() if len(wallet.history.get(i,{})) == 0))

And returning only 5165 rows, I think it's more like the right answer.

listaddresses() takes optional arguments...

def listaddresses(self, receiving=False, change=False, labels=False, frozen=False, unused=False, funded=False, balance=False):
"""List wallet addresses. Returns the list of all addresses in your wallet. Use optional arguments to filter the results."""

So, listaddresses(True) will give you receive. listaddresses(False,True) will give you change...

In the console, or in the wallet UI, how can I extract a list of only receiving addresses ?

>> listaddresses()

Will return all addresses it seems, both change and receiving.

In the UI on the addresses tab I can filter to just receiving or just change addresses.
And then filter to unused, funded, used.

But there appears no way to extract that list.
