getblock - Zcash 4.5.1-1 RPC

getblock "hash|height" ( verbosity )

If verbosity is 0, returns a string that is serialized, hex-encoded data for the block.
If verbosity is 1, returns an Object with information about the block.
If verbosity is 2, returns an Object with information about the block and information about each transaction. 

Arguments:
1. "hash|height"          (string, required) The block hash or height. Height can be negative where -1 is the last known valid block
2. verbosity              (numeric, optional, default=1) 0 for hex encoded data, 1 for a json object, and 2 for json object with transaction data

Result (for verbosity = 0):
"data"             (string) A string that is serialized, hex-encoded data for the block.

Result (for verbosity = 1):
{
  "hash" : "hash",       (string) the block hash (same as provided hash)
  "confirmations" : n,   (numeric) The number of confirmations, or -1 if the block is not on the main chain
  "size" : n,            (numeric) The block size
  "height" : n,          (numeric) The block height or index (same as provided height)
  "version" : n,         (numeric) The block version
  "merkleroot" : "xxxx", (string) The merkle root
  "finalsaplingroot" : "xxxx", (string) The root of the Sapling commitment tree after applying this block

                                        Omitted for blocks prior to NU5 activation. This will be the null
                                        hash if this block has never been connected to a main chain.
  "tx" : [               (array of string) The transaction ids
     "transactionid"     (string) The transaction id
     ,...

}

Result (for verbosity = 2):
{
  ...,                     Same output as verbosity = 1.
  "tx" : [               (array of Objects) The transactions in the format of the getrawtransaction RPC. Different from verbosity = 1 "tx" result.
