API new commands

[cjeanneret]

Hello,

It would be wonderful to get the following commands in the API:

getAddress

args: <address>
Returns: address, label
Targets: either addressbook or personnal addresses

updateAddressLabel

args: <address> <label>
Returns: success if address exists and has been updated, failuer otherwise
Targets: either addressbook or personnal addresses

Use cases:
the first one will allow to get the label related to an address — may be good for some application devel.

The second one aims to allow label update — this would let us use the createDeterministicAddress and set up later a proper label, different from the default one

I may have a look in order to properly implement that… But I don't promise it

Cheers,

C.

++ I had to work around this by having my code kill the server, parse and rewriting the config file, and then restarting the server. Not an ideal solution.
