eth-mempool-listener-go

A simple program able to listen to the pending transactions of the Ethereum mempool.

How does it work ?

It creates a set of clients to query the mempool from a node using the endpoint you've provided as an environment variable. Then, it converts the transaction to a readable message so that you can use its fields properly.

Take a look at the code and feel free to use it for your own needs !

Getting started !

Installation

Make sure you've downloaded the required dependencies using :

go get ./

Quickstart

Provide the node endpoint in a .envrc file or export it in the shell environment :

export NODE_ENDPOINT=RUN_YOUR_OWN_NODE_TO_IMPROVE_DECENTRALISATION_;)

Then, run :

go run main.go
