Parameters
-
quantity or tag
— the integer of a block encoded as hexadecimal or the string with:latest
— the most recent block in the blockchain and the current state of the blockchain at the most recent blockearliest
— the earliest available or genesis blockpending
— the pending state and transactions block. The current state of transactions that have been broadcast to the network but have not yet been included in a block.
See the default block parameter.
Response
quantity
— an integer value representing how many transactions are included in the block.
eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber
code examples
const Web3 = require("web3");
const NODE_URL = "CHAINSTACK_NODE_URL";
const web3 = new Web3(NODE_URL);
async function getTransactionsCount(blockId) {
const count = await web3.eth.getBlockTransactionCount(blockId)
console.log(count);
}
getTransactionsCount('latest')
Use case
eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber
can be used to analyze how many transactions are included on the Polygon blockchain in a certain period. For instance, on average, a new block is generated on the Polygon mainnet every 2.1 seconds, resulting in approximately 1,700 blocks per hour. Using the ethers.js library, one can inspect the past 1,700 blocks starting from the latest block and use eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber
to find the number of transactions in each block to sum them.
const ethers = require('ethers');
const NODE_URL = "CHAINSTACK_NODE_URL";
const provider = new ethers.JsonRpcProvider(NODE_URL);
async function retrieveTransactionCounts() {
// Get the current block number
const currentBlockNumber = await provider.getBlockNumber();
// Calculate the block number from one hour ago
const oneHourAgoBlockNumber = currentBlockNumber - 1700; // 1700/blocks/hr on average on the Polygon mainnet
// Initialize a variable to store the total number of transactions
let totalTransactionCount = 0;
// Loop through all blocks from the current block number to the block number from one hour ago
for (let block = currentBlockNumber; block > oneHourAgoBlockNumber; block--) {
// Get the number of transactions in this block
const transactionCount = await provider.send("eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber", [block]);
// Make the necessery conversions from hex to decimal
const stringCount = BigInt(transactionCount).toString();
const decimalCount = Number(stringCount)
// Add the number of transactions in this block to the total
totalTransactionCount += decimalCount;
const stringBlock = BigInt(block).toString();
const decimalBlock = Number(stringBlock)
console.log(`Block ${decimalBlock} has ${decimalCount} transactions.`);
}
console.log(`The total number of transactions in the previous hour is: ${totalTransactionCount}`);
}
retrieveTransactionCounts();
Using eth_getBlockTransactionCountByNumber
is a bit more straightforward compared to the example shown using eth_getBlockTransactionCountByHash
for this same use case, you don’t need to extract the block hash; instead, you can query the transaction count directly.
This example is made using the ethers.js library, and you can notice that it requires more parsing compared to web3.js, and the results are given as hexadecimal.
Body
The block number.
