How to use it

// yarn add @tatumio/tatum

import { TatumSDK, Dogecoin, Network } from '@tatumio/tatum'

const tatum = await TatumSDK.init<Dogecoin>({ network: Network.DOGECOIN })

const result = await tatum.rpc.createRawTransaction(
  [
    {
      txid: 'abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234abcd1234',
      vout: 0,
    },
  ],
  {

  },
)

await tatum.destroy() // Destroy Tatum SDK - needed for stopping background jobs

Overview

The createrawtransaction RPC method creates an unsigned raw transaction that spends a set of previous transaction outputs to a set of new addresses with specific amounts. The method can be used to create custom transactions, which can then be signed and broadcast to the Dogecoin network.

Parameters

• inputs: (array, required) An array of objects, each specifying a previous transaction output to spend.
  • txid: (string, required) The transaction ID of the previous transaction output to spend.
  • vout: (numeric, required) The index of the output to spend from the previous transaction.
  • sequence: (numeric, optional) default=depends on the value of the 'replaceable' and 'locktime' arguments) The sequence number
• outputs: (object, required) An object with the key-value pairs representing the receiving address and the amount to be sent (in BTC).
• locktime: (numeric, optional, default=0) The lock time for the transaction. It can be used to specify the earliest time or block height at which the transaction can be included in a block.
• replaceable: (boolean, optional, default=false) Marks this transaction as BIP125-replaceable. Allows this transaction to be replaced by a transaction with higher fees. If provided, it is an error if explicit sequence numbers are incompatible.

Return Object

• (string) A hex-encoded raw transaction.
