Using web3.js
import { Connection } from '@solana/web3.js';
const connection = new Connection('http://rpc.orbitflare.com');
const addresses = [
'6dmNQ5jwLeLk5REvio1JcMshcbvkYMwy26sJ8pbkvStu',
'BGsqMegLpV6n6Ve146sSX2dTjUMj3M92HnU8BbNRMhF2'
];
const rewards = await connection.getInflationReward(addresses, 2);
console.log(rewards);
Using Python
from solana.rpc.api import Client
client = Client("http://rpc.orbitflare.com")
addresses = [
"6dmNQ5jwLeLk5REvio1JcMshcbvkYMwy26sJ8pbkvStu",
"BGsqMegLpV6n6Ve146sSX2dTjUMj3M92HnU8BbNRMhF2"
]
response = client.get_inflation_reward(addresses, 2)
print(response)
Notes
- Returns inflation rewards for a list of addresses
- Results are returned as an array in the same order as the input addresses
- A null value in the result array means that the address has not received rewards
- Commission field is only present for validators (null for regular accounts)
- Rewards are calculated at the end of each epoch
Best Practices
- Provide a list of valid addresses to avoid null responses
- Specify the epoch parameter if you need historical reward data
- Handle null values in the response array appropriately
- Use this method to track rewards for staking accounts
- Handle network errors and retry when appropriate
