# Getting the latest transactions mempool.space



Python script that gets the latest transactions from the mempool.space website and saves them into a text file can use the following approach. We will use the library requeststo query data from the mempool.space API and jsonwork with the resulting data in JSON format.


First make sure you have the required libraries installed. If they are not already installed, they can be installed using pip:


pip install requests


Now you can use the following script to get the latest transactions and save them to a text file:


import requests

import json


def fetch_latest_transactions():

    # URL to get latest transactions from mempool.space API

    url = "https://mempool.space/api/mempool/recent"

    try:

        # Send a GET request and receive data

        response = requests.get(url)

        response.raise_for_status()  # Checking for request errors

        transactions = response.json()  # Receiving data in JSON format

        # Opening a file for writing

        with open("latest_transactions.txt", "w") as file:

            for transaction in transactions:

                # We record information about each transaction in a file

                file.write(json.dumps(transaction) + "\n")

        print("We record information about each transaction in a file 'latest_transactions.txt'.")

    except requests.RequestException as e:

        print(f"Error while receiving data: {e}")

# Calling the function

fetch_latest_transactions()


This script first makes a request to the mempool.space API to get the latest transactions. It then stores this data in a text file, where each transaction is recorded on a separate line in JSON format.


Make sure that you have access to the Internet and that the mempool.space website is accessible, as this will determine whether the script will run successfully.
