Package btcutil provides bitcoin-specific convenience functions and types.
|
|
|
|
# Block Overview
|
|
|
|
A Block defines a bitcoin block that provides easier and more efficient
|
|
manipulation of raw wire protocol blocks. It also memoizes hashes for the
|
|
block and its transactions on their first access so subsequent accesses don't
|
|
have to repeat the relatively expensive hashing operations.
|
|
|
|
# Tx Overview
|
|
|
|
A Tx defines a bitcoin transaction that provides more efficient manipulation of
|
|
raw wire protocol transactions. It memoizes the hash for the transaction on its
|
|
first access so subsequent accesses don't have to repeat the relatively
|
|
expensive hashing operations.
|
|
|
|
# Address Overview
|
|
|
|
The Address interface provides an abstraction for a Bitcoin address. While the
|
|
most common type is a pay-to-pubkey-hash, Bitcoin already supports others and
|
|
may well support more in the future. This package currently provides
|
|
implementations for the pay-to-pubkey, pay-to-pubkey-hash, and
|
|
pay-to-script-hash address types.
|
|
|
|
To decode/encode an address:
|
|
|
|
// NOTE: The default network is only used for address types which do not
|
|
// already contain that information. At this time, that is only
|
|
// pay-to-pubkey addresses.
|
|
