From 382625318d8734fd71a6c9620d3e88b5617da0c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Wladimir J. van der Laan" Date: Thu, 29 Sep 2016 16:45:19 +0200 Subject: rpc: Handle `getinfo` locally in bitcoin-cli w/ `-getinfo` This adds the infrastructure `BaseRequestHandler` class that takes care of converting bitcoin-cli arguments into a JSON-RPC request object, and converting the reply into a JSON object that can be shown as result. This is subsequently used to handle the `-getinfo` option, which sends a JSON-RPC batch request to the RPC server with `["getnetworkinfo", "getblockchaininfo", "getwalletinfo"]`, and after reply combines the result into what looks like a `getinfo` result. There have been some requests for a client-side `getinfo` and this is my PoC of how to do it. If this is considered a good idea some of the logic could be moved up to rpcclient.cpp and used in the GUI console as well.
