getBlockSummary

Retrieves summaries of the most recent blocks.

Queries the connected Aleo node, so it hits the network. Populates an explorer-style recent-blocks view without downloading full blocks; getBlocks returns complete block contents instead.

Usage​

import { createPublicClient, http } from '@provablehq/veil-core'

const client = createPublicClient({
  transport: http('https://api.provable.com/v2', { network: 'mainnet' }),
})

const summaries = await client.getBlockSummary()
// [{ block_height: 1000, block_hash: 'ab1...', solution_count: 3, transaction_count: 12, ... }, ...]

Returns​

BlockSummary[]

Summaries of the latest blocks, newest first. Each summary carries block_height (number, u32), block_hash, solution_count, transaction_count, block_timestamp (unix seconds, delivered as a string), and the coinbase_target / proof_target (number, u64) in effect for that block.
