Descriptor wallet library
Library for building descriptor-based bitcoin wallets. Everything a modern cold and hot bitcoin wallet needs, but which is not (yet) a part of rust-bitcoin library.
The library clearly separates parts requiring access to private keys from
those which should operate never touching them. It is advised that wallets
should be designed in a way assuming zero private key access for all of their
operations aside from transaction signing; this part must be separated into
other repository/library and be strictly controlled. One may look after
command-line btc-hot
and btc-cold
wallets in bin
directory for an
example of how this can be done.
Library provides
- efficient manipulations with BIP-32 derivation paths, separating derivations requiring private key access from those, which will always operate without;
- miniscript & classical bitcoin descriptors;
- PSBT constructor using input descriptors, which allow to specify custom information about RBFs, previous public key P2C tweaks and custom hash types on a per-input basis;
- PSBT signer, supporting RBFs, relative and absolute timelocks, all sighash types, complex scripts, including witness- and taproot-based;
- script templates allowing embedding extended pubkeys into bitcoin script assembly;
- lexicographic ordering of transaction & PSBT inputs & oututs;
- script type system;
- helper types for working with hash-lock contracts;
- PSBT utility functions (retrieving previous output, computing fee);
- transaction resolver API on top of Electrum Server API for convenience computation of already-mined transaction fees etc;
- support for SLIP-32/132 extended pubkey types (
ypub
,zprv
etc).
Command-line wallets
One may install command-line wallets with the following command (requires
rust compiler and rustup
tools to be already installed on a system):
$ rustup default stable
$ rustup update
$ git clone https://github.com/BP-WG/descriptor-wallet
$ cd descriptor-wallet
$ cargo install --path . --locked --all-features
This will add btc-hot
and btc-cold
commands to the system.
Install with Docker
Build
Clone the repository and checkout to the desired version (here v0.8.0
):
$ git clone https://github.com/BP-WG/descriptor-wallet
$ cd descriptor-wallet
$ git checkout v0.8.0
Build and tag the Docker image:
$ docker build -t descriptor-wallet:v0.8.0 .
Usage
$ docker run descriptor-wallet:v0.8.0 btc-hot --help
$ docker run descriptor-wallet:v0.8.0 btc-cold --help
Examples with files
$ docker run -v $PWD/data:/data descriptor-wallet:v0.8.0 btc-hot seed /data/testnet.seed
$ docker run -v $PWD/data:/data descriptor-wallet:v0.8.0 btc-hot derive --testnet /data/testnet.seed /data/testnet
