I am making a tip bot and due to this bug - https://github.com/input-output-hk/cardano-wallet/issues/2614 I can’t use cardano-wallet. So I decided to just use cardano-cli for on-chain operations like deposits and withdrawals. The problem is, I need to be able to track and verify transaction that I sent (actually verify if it was confirmed and ADA was sent out).
When I submit a transaction using cardano-cli all I see is something like “transaction submitted”. Is there a way to get the transaction ID somehow to verify it was processed and confirmed by other parties?
The transaction ID will be listed in cardano-node log file, in a directory like Logs/pub/node.log. You will see it added to the mempool, and then removed when it is processed.
The front-end application would then request for a wallet address from the backend service and render a QR code to the customer to be scanned via a Cardano wallet. The backend service would then know that it has to query the wallet address using cardano-cli with a certain time interval to confirm and alert the front-end application that the payment has completed succesfully.
