Rifle is a blocktime estimator for Starknet written in Rust. Made by learning purpose. This project is inspired by ([snipe](https://github.com/0xcacti/snipe)).

## Features

### Convert blocknumber to time.

This feature relies on the `starknet_getBlockWithTxHashes` endpoint. Get timestamp from blocknumber through this endpoint. If you want to return in unix format, add `-f unix` command.

### Convert time to blocknumber.

This feature is using binary search algorithm to search for the nearest blocknumber with given target timestamp.

### Select network want to query.

You can use options to choose. `-n mainnet` will allow you to query from Starkent mainnet, `-n goerli` will allow you to query from Starkent goerli, `-n goerli2` will allow you to query from Starkent goerli2.
