rusty-blockparser

This is modified version of the original rusty-blockparser by @gcarq This version is was explicitly used for the experiment mentioned in https://github.com/tintinweb/ecdsa-private-key-recovery/.

Thanks to the Original Devloper gcarq

Also thanks to tintinweb for providing the modified patch code.

Build Status Coverage Status Crates.io

rusty-blockparser is a Bitcoin Blockchain Parser written in Rust language.

It allows extraction of various data types (blocks, transactions, scripts, public keys/hashes, balances, ...) and UTXDO dumps from Bitcoin based blockchains.

NOTE: Use the branch use-bitcoin-lib for Bitcoin as it implements SegWit and BECH32 address support (gcarq/rusty-blockparser#62). This will be merged eventually but at this point it would break support for other coins.

Currently Supported Blockchains:

Bitcoin, Namecoin, Litecoin, Dogecoin, Myriadcoin, Unobtanium and NoteBlockchain.

It assumes a local unpruned copy of the blockchain with intact block index, downloaded with Bitcoin Core 0.15.1+. If you are not sure whether your local copy is valid you can apply --verify to validate the chain and block merkle trees. If something doesn't match the parser exits.

Features

  • Callbacks

    Callbacks are built on top of the core parser. They can be implemented to extract specific types of information.

    balances: dumps all addresses with a non-zero balance. The csv file is in the following format:

    balances.csv
    address ; balance
    

    unspentcsvdump: dumps all UTXOs along with the address balance. The csv file is in the following format:

    unspent.csv
    txid ; indexOut ; height ; value ; address
    

    NOTE: The total size of the csv dump is at least 8 GiB (height 635000).

    csvdump: dumps all parsed data as CSV files into the specified folder. See Usage for an example. I chose CSV dumps instead of an active db-connection because LOAD DATA INFILE is the most performant way for bulk inserts. The files are in the following format:

    blocks.csv
    block_hash ; height ; version ; blocksize ; hashPrev ; hashMerkleRoot ; nTime ; nBits ; nNonce
    
    transactions.csv
    txid ; hashBlock ; version ; lockTime
    
    tx_in.csv
    txid ; hashPrevOut ; indexPrevOut ; scriptSig ; sequence
    
    tx_out.csv
    txid ; indexOut ; height ; value ; scriptPubKey ; address
    

    If you want to insert the files into MySql see sql/schema.sql. It contains all table structures and SQL statements for bulk inserting. Also see sql/views.sql for some query examples. NOTE: The total size of the csv dump is at least to 731 GiB (height 635000).

    simplestats: prints some blockchain statistics like block count, transaction count, avg transactions per block, largest transaction, transaction types etc.

You can also define custom callbacks. A callback gets called at startup, on each block and at the end. See src/callbacks/mod.rs for more information.

  • Low memory usage

    The required memory usage depends on the used callback:

      * simplestats: ~100MB
      * csvdump: ~100M
      * unspentcsvdump: ~18GB
      * balances: ~18GB
    

    NOTE: Those values are taken from parsing to block height 639631 (17.07.2020).

  • Script evaluation

    Evaluates and detects P2PK, P2PKH, P2SH and some non-standard transactions.

  • Resume scans

    --start <height> and --end <height> can be passed to resume a scan. However this makes no sense for unspentcsvdump!

Installing

This tool runs on Windows, OS X and Linux. All you need is rust and cargo.

Latest Release

You can download the latest release from crates.io:

cargo install rusty-blockparser

Build from source

git clone https://github.com/gcarq/rusty-blockparser.git
cd rusty-blockparser
cargo build --release
cargo test --release
./target/release/rusty-blockparser --help

It is important to build with --release, otherwise you will get a horrible performance!

Example

To make a unspentcsvdump of the Bitcoin blockchain your command would look like this:

Customizing the tool for your coin

The tool can easily be customized to your coin. This section outlines the changes that need to be made and is for a beginner user (both with Rust and Blockchain). (This guide is made possible by reviewing the commits made by MerlinMagic2018). During this example the coin name used is NoCoinium.

  • The main change is src/blockchain/parser/types.rs.
  • Add a new entry pub struct NoCoinium above the line //pub struct Dash(The case you use here is to be carried in all subsequent references, except when noted)
  • You will then need to add a impl Coin for NoCoinium. You could easily copy a previous block e.g. Bitcoin. The changes you need to do are highlighted below as comments
//The name here should be the same case as defined in the pub struct line
impl Coin for NoCoinium {
    fn name(&self) -> String {
        String::from("NoCoinium")
        //This is primarily for display. Use same case as before
    }
    fn magic(&self) -> u32 {
        0xd9b4bef9
        // Magic bytes are a string of hex characters that prefix messages in the chain. 
        // To find this value, look for the fields pchMessageStart[0-3] in the file chainparams.cpp under CMainParams
        // The value to be used here is 0x + pchMessageStart[3] + pchMessageStart[2] + pchMessageStart[1] + pchMessageStart[0]
        // i.e. string the values in reverse.
    }
    fn version_id(&self) -> u8 {
        0x00
        // Version ID is used to identify the address prefix for Base58 encoding of the public address
        // Found this using the stackoverflow comment - https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/62781/litecoin-constants-and-prefixes
        // Again with chainparams.cpp and CMainParams, look for base58Prefixes[PUBKEY_ADDRESS]. Convert the decimal value to Hex and add it here
    }
    fn genesis(&self) -> [u8; 32] {
        utils::hex_to_arr32_swapped(
            "000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934ff763ae46a2a6c172b3f1b60a8ce26f",
            // This is the Genesis Block hash - Get the value from consensus.hashGenesisBlock, again found in chainparams.cpp
        )
    }
    fn default_folder(&self) -> PathBuf {
        Path::new(".nocoinium").join("blocks")
        // This is the folder from the user's home folder to where the blocks files are found
        // Note the case here. It is not CamelCase as most coin directories are lower case. However, use the actual folder name
        // from your coin implementation.
    }
}
  • Finally, tie these changes within impl FromStr for CoinType under match coin. The first part will be the case passed as argument to the program (see bullet point below) and the name within from() will be the name used above.
"nocoinium" => Ok(CoinType::from(NoCoinium)),
  • The next change is in src/main.rs. Under the fn parse_args() add your coin to the array of coins. The case you use here will be the same value as you pass in the arguments when executing the blockchain (using the -c argument)
  • Finally, add your coin name in the README.md file so others know your coin is supported

TODO

  • Implement Pay2MultiSig script evaluation
