eth_getBlockByHash

Returns block information by hash.

Parameters:

DATA , 32 Bytes - Hash of a block.

Boolean - If true it returns the full transaction objects, if false only the hashes of the transactions.

Returns:

Object - A block object, or null when no block was found:

• number: QUANTITY - the block number.

• hash: DATA, 32 Bytes - hash of the block.

• parentHash: DATA, 32 Bytes - hash of the parent block.

• nonce: DATA, 8 Bytes - hash of the generated proof-of-work.

• sha3Uncles: DATA, 32 Bytes - SHA3 of the uncles data in the block.

• logsBloom: DATA, 256 Bytes - the bloom filter for the logs of the block.

• transactionsRoot: DATA, 32 Bytes - the root of the transaction trie of the block.

• stateRoot: DATA, 32 Bytes - the root of the final state trie of the block.

• receiptsRoot: DATA, 32 Bytes - the root of the receipts trie of the block.

• miner: DATA, 20 Bytes - the address of the beneficiary to whom the mining rewards were given.

• difficulty: QUANTITY - integer of the difficulty for this block.

• totalDifficulty: QUANTITY - integer of the total difficulty of the chain until this block.

• extraData: DATA - the “extra data” field of this block.

• size: QUANTITY - integer the size of this block in bytes.

• gasLimit: QUANTITY - the maximum gas allowed in this block.

• gasUsed: QUANTITY - the total used gas by all transactions in this block.

• timestamp: QUANTITY - the unix timestamp for when the block was collated.

• transactions: Array - Array of transaction objects, or 32 Bytes transaction hashes depending on the last given parameter.

• uncles: Array - Array of uncle hashes.
