dcrjson
Package dcrjson implements concrete types for marshalling to and from the
bitcoin JSON-RPC API. A comprehensive suite of tests is provided to ensure
proper functionality.
Although this package was primarily written for the decred, it has
intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any
projects needing to marshal to and from bitcoin JSON-RPC requests and responses.
Note that although it's possible to use this package directly to implement an
RPC client, it is not recommended since it is only intended as an infrastructure
package. Instead, RPC clients should use the
rpcclient package which provides
a full blown RPC client with many features such as automatic connection
management, websocket support, automatic notification re-registration on
reconnect, and conversion from the raw underlying RPC types (strings, floats,
ints, etc) to higher-level types with many nice and useful properties.
