shdw-node-stats

This Python package, shdw-node-stats, is designed to fetch and record information about blockchain nodes. It has two features:

1. Retrieve data such as the node's rank, total rewards, and status from a specified API endpoint, then records this information in a CSV file for chart purpose if you need.

2. Send notification to your Telegram when the node status is not_eligible.

Installation

This package has been published to pypi: https://pypi.org/project/shdw-node-stats/

To install shdw-node-stats as a package, simply use pip:

pip install shdw-node-stats

This command installs shdw-node-stats along with all required dependencies. Ensure you have Python installed on your system (version 3.8 or later is recommended).

Usage

As a Standalone Script

If you prefer to use NodeStats.py as a standalone script:

1. Ensure you have Python installed on your system (version 3.8 or later is recommended) and clone the repository or download the script.

2. Install the required dependencies:

pip install -r requirements.txt

1. Prepare a file named nodes.txt or nodes.json with the node addresses.

2. Run the script from the terminal or command prompt:

python3 NodeStats.py

As a Python Package

To install shdw-node-stats as a package, simply use pip:

pip install shdw-node-stats

This command installs shdw-node-stats along with all required dependencies. Ensure you have Python installed on your system (version 3.8 or later is recommended). After installing shdw-node-stats via pip, you can use it in your Python scripts as follows:

1. Prepare a file named nodes.txt or nodes.json containing the addresses of the nodes you wish to query.

2. Use the package in your script:

```python from shdwnodestats import NodeStats

Assuming you have a 'nodes.txt' or 'nodes.json' file in your current directory

nodestats = NodeStats('nodes.txt') # or NodeStats('nodes.json') nodestats.run() ```

This will fetch the node information and output it to a CSV file named node_rankings.csv.

File Formats Supported

• JSON (.json): Should contain an array of node addresses.
• Text (.txt): Should contain node addresses, one per line.

Output

Both usage methods generate a CSV file named node_rankings.csv, which includes the following columns: Timestamp, Node Address, Rank, Rewards, and Status. The console output will display the node information and the total rewards accumulated by the nodes listed in the input file.
