bdk-node

This package is a wrapper around the Bitcoin Dev Kit made with Napi-RS.

Installation

npm install @swan-bitcoin/bdk-node
# or
yarn add @swan-bitcoin/bdk-node
# or
pnpm install @swan-bitcoin/bdk-node

Usage

import {Bdk} from '@swan-bitcoin/bdk-node'

_bdk = new Bdk()
const height = await _bdk.estimateFee(
        host,
        numBlocks,
)

Contributing

The Rust code that gets built is inside src/lib.rs. When you run pnpm build this file gets compiled and NAPI spit out the Typescript file and JS with the bindings.

Publishing

Napi comes out of the box with a release process that is documented here.

To publish a new version of the package you need to:

1. Make sure you start on the main branch and main is up-to-date git checkout main git pull

2. Check out a new branch and give it a good name using /, such as:

   git checkout -b jdf/publish-new-package-version

3. Update version and push branch and newly created tags to GitHub (with pattern v*). major and minor can also be used in place of patch (if appropriate)

   npm version patch git push --follow-tags

4. Merge the pull request and create a new GitHub release using the tag created above. This will start the publish workflow.

The workflow will need to be approved by another user with write access before its executed. If published successfully, the packages will be published here.

Manual Testing

Check out: https://github.com/turkycat/fulcrum-regtest

from fulcrum-regtest/

docker compose up -d  
./prepare_btc1.sh  
./send_to_address.sh   bcrt1q8vw3juyk7gm7elt8rut87mghe50sxc32njs7zn9fqv6ynsxr52xq4h2uu0 10  
./mine_blocks.sh 1  

the above commands will:

• set up two bitcoin nodes in regtest and a fulcrum server that connects to them.
• create a bitcoin wallet with the first node and mine 101 blocks to it (making 50 bitcoin available)
• send 10 bitcoin to the address bcrt1q8vw3juyk7gm7elt8rut87mghe50sxc32njs7zn9fqv6ynsxr52xq4h2uu0 -- this address was obtained with the BDK instructions below
• mine 1 block to confirm the transaction

for some extra fun:

docker logs -f fulcrum - watch fulcrum as it processes new blocks, receives transactions, and other stuff

docker exec -it btc1 /bin/bash - execute commands with bitcoin-cli

BDK instructions:
to interact with this wallet in BDK use the following command:

bdk-cli --network regtest repl --server localhost:50001 --descriptor "wsh(multi(2,[5708531c/84h/1h/0h/2h]tpubDFE8F7LxXBEQEMPxed7QxhUJn6HMZg9keYLiXTCFbAkP3bRAneGZjNW44gwWcVj8yzwE9F7i55m78ZqdVsrmdJXXsh2iZCHjoon7LRAjXcu/0/*,[946d4c49/84h/1h/0h/2h]tpubDFXJS31fJep45UaMw4EUUqNhL6qUYL3BUW5TuHyXn4A4yCkXcJMy7ba6uT9cqX6KjMBgeVRqb56TuQ5oRxW5QUQ3ffhMqEy44ECvyxhwUFk/0/*,[4c69896e/84h/1h/0h/2h]tpubDE159ZNvnVj5Dv7Eo8EmnTjUdvJZYQ8fNp7R3K29a5FjZkmd4priKbdePGWU7XJMERG7LPQnh3Fi7Hjv1JrmXUrxuNaWXfULj8hDG7biXqh/0/*))" --change_descriptor "wsh(multi(2,[5708531c/84h/1h/0h/2h]tpubDFE8F7LxXBEQEMPxed7QxhUJn6HMZg9keYLiXTCFbAkP3bRAneGZjNW44gwWcVj8yzwE9F7i55m78ZqdVsrmdJXXsh2iZCHjoon7LRAjXcu/1/*,[946d4c49/84h/1h/0h/2h]tpubDFXJS31fJep45UaMw4EUUqNhL6qUYL3BUW5TuHyXn4A4yCkXcJMy7ba6uT9cqX6KjMBgeVRqb56TuQ5oRxW5QUQ3ffhMqEy44ECvyxhwUFk/1/*,[4c69896e/84h/1h/0h/2h]tpubDE159ZNvnVj5Dv7Eo8EmnTjUdvJZYQ8fNp7R3K29a5FjZkmd4priKbdePGWU7XJMERG7LPQnh3Fi7Hjv1JrmXUrxuNaWXfULj8hDG7biXqh/1/*))"

then, in the REPL you can do the following interesting things

wallet get_new_address- returns the next unused address ( which will be bcrt1q8vw3juyk7gm7elt8rut87mghe50sxc32njs7zn9fqv6ynsxr52xq4h2uu0 index 0 if used before wallet sync or before spending)

wallet sync

wallet get_balance - need to sync first to get accurate info

bdk-cli will create a local database in ~/.bdk-bitcoin by default, so you may need to clean those up if you need to restart.
