If you want to do it against an existing server application, you just execute the necessary queries.

https://github.com/libbitcoin/libbitcoin-server/wiki/Client-Server-Interface

fetch-block-height (defaults to top)
fetch-block-header (by hash or height)
fetch-block-transaction-hashes (merkle)
fetch-transaction

There are also subscriptions for blocks, transactions and addresses.

The client API provides C++ query call stubs. It's also straightforward to build a customized server using the library.
