### Rust Bitcoin Library
|
|
|
|
This library is badly incomplete --- though at this point it is perhaps stable
|
|
enough that pull requests could be accepted.
|
|
|
|
Currently development is following the needs of the
|
|
[Wizard's Wallet](https://github.com/apoelstra/wizards-wallet), which is
|
|
a "lite" wallet which does SPV validation but maintains a full UTXO index.
|
|
Its purpose is to be a usable-though-risky wallet which supports experimental
|
|
user-facing features.
|
|
|
|
Pull requests to generalize the library or introduce new use cases would
|
|
be great.
|
|
|
|
### Building
|
|
|
|
To build, start by obtaining [cargo](http://crates.io/). Then just run `cargo build`.
|
|
To run the test cases, do `cargo test`. Note that the tests must pass (and reasonably
|
|
complete unit tests provided for new features) before any submissions can be accepted.
