I’ve mangad to get nearer to my aim.
My Code
# rpc_user and rpc_password are set within the bitcoin.conf file
rpc_user = "umbrel"
rpc_pass = "go"
rpc_host = "192.168.1.122"
rpc_port = "8332"
rpc_connection = f"http://{rpc_user}:{rpc_pass}@{rpc_host}:{rpc_port}"
rpc_client = AuthServiceProxy(rpc_connection, timeout=240)
num_blocks = rpc_client.getblockcount()
print(num_blocks)
Which ought to simply print out the BlockHeight of the node. However I get a 403 – Forbidden
Error Message
