Thanks! I just realized this myself after posting. I think I didn't notice it because there were only 2 transactions in that random block I illustrated with.
I'm now playing with getrawtransaction. Cheers!
Topic: get all transactions from a block [bitcoind] (Read 871 times)
Do I need to parse one of these fields in order to get a list of transactions included in this block?
Yes.
If so, where do I find the spec for that operation?
Code:
$ h=`bitcoind getblockhash 150000`
$ bitcoind getblock $h
{
- snip -
"tx" : [
"235b91c7b53c100f9f836ad17b6e0e417279efda77606d490ec743817bac6ff6",
"1b1202259a5c28f8e81dbc6d1ddd5bbf37d3af18d549495b2b9ad315fb9738a8"
],
- snip -
}
$ bitcoind getblock $h
{
- snip -
"tx" : [
"235b91c7b53c100f9f836ad17b6e0e417279efda77606d490ec743817bac6ff6",
"1b1202259a5c28f8e81dbc6d1ddd5bbf37d3af18d549495b2b9ad315fb9738a8"
],

There you go. There's your list of transactions.
Or is there another rpc call that I should be making?
If you want the actual details of each transaction, you'll need to call getrawtransaction and decoderawtransaction for each transaction in the list.
Hey there,
I'm playing around with rpc calls to a bitcoind instance. I can get the info about a given block by passing its hash to 'getblock':
