Stellar guides
Task-based walkthroughs for Stellar on Triport: building on the Horizon REST and SSE surfaces as they actually behave, including retention boundaries and the parts that have no stream.
Endpoint and plans: Stellar RPC endpoint.
The REST catalog and the Horizon SSE reference describe each surface on its own. These guides put them together into a working task and are explicit about the constraints that change how the code must be written — which channels exist, what a reconnect costs, and where the retained window ends.
| Guide | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Monitor payments with Horizon and SSE | Subscribing to transactions as a trigger, paging payments from a stored paging_token, closing the gap after a reconnect, and reading 410 beyond_retention as a boundary rather than an empty page. |
Before you start
Every guide assumes a working key and connection — see Getting started and the Stellar overview. Two facts apply throughout: Horizon and SSE run through one measured operator on a best-effort basis without an SLA, and this surface is read-only, so no guide here submits a transaction.
