How to retrieve the transaction details using Operation Hash in Taquito

Question

I am trying to retrieve the transaction details like status and data using the operation hash in taquito.

What I want to achieve is basically take the op hash as user input and retrieve the details and status, something that taquito is already doing(when I perform a transaction, it can confirm the status).

Answer 1

If you want to do it with Taquito, the confirmation method on the operation object returns a promise with different information like the block, the status, etc. You can also use confirmationObservable to get the same information with an observable.
For more detailed information, you will have to use an indexer like Better Call Dev (although Taquito is working at integrating indexers so it should be available directly from Taquito in a near future!)

Answer 2

We can retrieve transaction details using operation hash in Taquito. Hope the below code will be useful.

const rpc = require('@taquito/rpc').RpcClient;
const client = new rpc("TEZOS NODE RPC URL", "CHAIN ID of the TEZOS NODE");
const getTransaction = async function(opHash){
    const presentBlock = await client.getBlock();
    const hashValue = presentBlock.hash;
    for(let i = 1; i <= presentBlock.header.level; i++){
        let block = await client.getBlock({
            block   :   hashValue + '~' + i
        });
        block.operations.forEach(opArray => {
            if(opArray.length){
                opArray.forEach(opObj => {
                    if(opObj.hash == opHash){
                        console.log(opObj); break;
                    }
                });
            }
        });
    }
}

Basically, I am iterating all blocks synced by my tezos node. If you feel there are numerate blocks, then you can give start block and end block as limits and improve the code. Thanks. @claude-barde correct me if I am wrong.
