btcd Websockets Example
This example shows how to use the rpcclient package to connect to a btcd RPC
server using TLS-secured websockets, register for block connected and block
disconnected notifications, and get the current block count.
This example also sets a timer to shutdown the client after 10 seconds to
demonstrate clean shutdown.
Running the Example
The first step is to use go get
to download and install the rpcclient package:
$ go get github.com/VidarSoltuions/btcd/rpcclient
Next, modify the main.go
source to specify the correct RPC username and
password for the RPC server:
User: "yourrpcuser",
Pass: "yourrpcpass",
Finally, navigate to the example's directory and run it with:
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/VidarSoltuions/btcd/rpcclient/examples/btcdwebsockets
$ go run *.go
