This converts the majority of script errors from generic errors created via errors.New and fmt.Errorf to use a concrete type that implements the error interface with an error code and description. This allows callers to programmatically detect the type of error via type assertions and an error code while still allowing the errors to provide more context. For example, instead of just having an error the reads "disabled opcode" as would happen prior to these changes when a disabled opcode is encountered, the error will now read "attempt to execute disabled opcode OP_FOO". While it was previously possible to programmatically detect many errors due to them being exported, they provided no additional context and there were also various instances that were just returning errors created on the spot which callers could not reliably detect without resorting to looking at the actual error message, which is nearly always bad practice. Also, while here, export the MaxStackSize and MaxScriptSize constants since they can be useful for consumers of the package and perform some minor cleanup of some of the tests. |

Package txscript implements the bitcoin transaction script language. There is a comprehensive test suite.
This package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing to use or validate bitcoin transaction scripts.
Bitcoin Scripts
Bitcoin provides a stack-based, FORTH-like language for the scripts in the bitcoin transactions. This language is not turing complete although it is still fairly powerful. A description of the language can be found at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Script
Installation and Updating
$ go get -u github.com/btcsuite/btcd/txscript
Examples
-
[Standard Pay-to-pubkey-hash Script] (http://godoc.org/github.com/btcsuite/btcd/txscript#example-PayToAddrScript)
Demonstrates creating a script which pays to a bitcoin address. It also prints the created script hex and uses the DisasmString function to display the disassembled script. -
[Extracting Details from Standard Scripts] (http://godoc.org/github.com/btcsuite/btcd/txscript#example-ExtractPkScriptAddrs)
Demonstrates extracting information from a standard public key script. -
[Manually Signing a Transaction Output] (http://godoc.org/github.com/btcsuite/btcd/txscript#example-SignTxOutput)
Demonstrates manually creating and signing a redeem transaction.
GPG Verification Key
All official release tags are signed by Conformal so users can ensure the code has not been tampered with and is coming from the btcsuite developers. To verify the signature perform the following:
-
Download the public key from the Conformal website at https://opensource.conformal.com/GIT-GPG-KEY-conformal.txt
-
Import the public key into your GPG keyring:
gpg --import GIT-GPG-KEY-conformal.txt -
