So for instance in solanabeach.io, I am able to see for validator - "staked" a list of delegators containing addresses, activation epochs, amount staked, and share %.

Is it possible to get this via the JSON RPC API, or another method?

CodePudding user response：

Certainly! You'll have to use the get_program_accounts endpoint, fetching all of the accounts belonging to the stake program, and filtering for where the delegation's vote account is equal to the validator that you want to search for.

Info about get_program_accounts: https://docs.solana.com/developing/clients/jsonrpc-api#getprogramaccounts

Info about the stake structure: https://github.com/solana-labs/solana/blob/e960634909a9617fb98d5d836c9c4c5e0d9d59cc/sdk/program/src/stake/state.rs#L22

If you count up from the enum (4 bytes), then the Meta (8 bytes for rent_exempt_reserve 64 bytes for authorized 48 bytes for lockup) to get to voter_pubkey, that gives an offset of 124 bytes.

Here's a python script to do exactly that, requiring just the solana-py package:

import asyncio

from solana.publickey import PublicKey
from solana.rpc.async_api import AsyncClient
from solana.rpc.commitment import Confirmed
from solana.rpc.types import MemcmpOpts

STAKE_PROGRAM_ID: PublicKey = PublicKey("Stake11111111111111111111111111111111111111")


async def main():
    client = AsyncClient("https://api.mainnet-beta.solana.com", Confirmed)
    print("Connecting...")
    await client.is_connected()

    memcmp_opts = [MemcmpOpts(offset=124, bytes="CAf8jfgqhia5VNrEF4A7Y9VLD3numMq9DVSceq7cPh
NY")] # put the pubkey of the validator vote address here
    response = await client.get_program_accounts(
        STAKE_PROGRAM_ID,
        encoding="base64",
        data_size=200,
        memcmp_opts=memcmp_opts
    )
    for stake in response['result']:
        print(stake)

    await client.close()

asyncio.run(main())
