database
[] (https://travis-ci.org/btcsuite/btcd) ![ISC License] (http://img.shields.io/badge/license-ISC-blue.svg)
Package database provides a database interface for the bitcoin block chain and transactions.
Please note that this package is intended to enable btcd to support different database backends and is not something that a client can directly access as only one entity can have the database open at a time (for most database backends), and that entity will be btcd.
When a client wants programmatic access to the data provided by btcd, they'll likely want to use the btcrpcclient package which makes use of the [JSON-RPC API] (https://github.com/btcsuite/btcd/tree/master/docs/json_rpc_api.md).
