This simple tutorial teaches you how to programmatically retrieve a Steemit account's last transactions simply pasting a script in any browser window.

NOTES:

• This script does not requires a pre-existing Steemit account or any private key so it's very safe to use.

STEP 1

Open your favorite browser on any site (I strongly recommend using Brave browser for its speed and security)
and open the DevTools (Ctrl + Shift + J on Linux/Windows and Cmd + Opt + J on Mac)

STEP 2

Open https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/steem/dist/steem.min.js (SteemJs) and copy & paste (Ctrl + A and Ctrl + C) the javascript code displayed on the page into the Browser Console (DevTools) that you opened in the first tab.

STEP 3

Copy & paste my script below in the Console and press enter.

Before doing so, if you want, you can change the target account name and the amount of transactions that you want to retrieve (eg. Instead of 'transisto' and 6 you can use 'marcocasario' and 3). Or leave it as it is to first give it a try..

var getLastNTransactions = (user, N) => new Promise((resolve) => {
  steem.api.getAccountHistory(user, -1, 5000, (err, result = []) => {
    if (err) return console.error('>>> ', err);
    const res = [];
    for (let id = 0; id < result.length; id++) {
      if (result[id][1].op[0] === 'transfer') {
        // console.log(JSON.stringify(result[id]))
        res.push(result[id]);
      }
    }
    const last500Transactions = res.reverse();
    resolve(last500Transactions.slice(0, N));
  });
});
getLastNTransactions('transisto', 6)
  .then(res => console.log('OK >> ', JSON.stringify(res)))
  .catch(err => console.error('Oops, something went wrong:', err));

If you then want to execute the script again for a different user, you only need to paste it again, change what you need and press enter again.

Enjoy!! =]
