hey all, I couldn't grok blkmond, or seemingly get it working. it runs and sits there... doing nothing even when a block turns up. Anyway;
from that engineering "do it yourself" mentality I wrote a substitute that operates in possibly the least efficient way possible, it just polls bitcoind over RPC ever 0.1 of a second. Huzzah! Anyway it works, and it's a "fixed cost" work, it won't increase usage if you increase pool size.
I jokingly called it pollpokepush.py (it's even fun to say!),
To get it working:
#!/usr/bin/env python
from jsonrpc.authproxy import AuthServiceProxy
import sys
import os
access = AuthServiceProxy("http://RPCUSER:RPCPASS@127.0.0.1:8332")
blockcount = access.getblockcount()
from time import sleep
while(True):
newcount = access.getblockcount()
if newcount > blockcount:
os.system("killall -s SIGUSR1 pushpoold")
sys.stdout.write("B")
sys.stdout.flush()
blockcount = newcount
sleep(1)
else:
sleep(0.1)
