chaincfg
Package chaincfg defines chain configuration parameters for the three standard Bitcoin networks and provides the ability for callers to define their own custom Bitcoin networks.
Although this package was primarily written for btcd, it has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing to use parameters for the standard Bitcoin networks or for projects needing to define their own network.
Sample Use
package main
import (
"flag"
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/binance-chain/btcutil"
"github.com/binance-chain/btcd/chaincfg"
)
var testnet = flag.Bool("testnet", false, "operate on the testnet Bitcoin network")
// By default (without -testnet), use mainnet.
var chainParams = &chaincfg.MainNetParams
func main() {
flag.Parse()
// Modify active network parameters if operating on testnet.
if *testnet {
chainParams = &chaincfg.TestNet3Params
}
// later...
// Create and print new payment address, specific to the active network.
pubKeyHash := make([]byte, 20)
addr, err := btcutil.NewAddressPubKeyHash(pubKeyHash, chainParams)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Println(addr)
}

Overview ¶
Package chaincfg defines chain configuration parameters.
In addition to the main Bitcoin network, which is intended for the transfer of monetary value, there also exists two currently active standard networks: regression test and testnet (version 3). These networks are incompatible with each other (each sharing a different genesis block) and software should handle errors where input intended for one network is used on an application instance running on a different network.
For library packages, chaincfg provides the ability to lookup chain parameters and encoding magics when passed a *Params. Older APIs not updated to the new convention of passing a *Params may lookup the parameters for a wire.BitcoinNet using ParamsForNet, but be aware that this usage is deprecated and will be removed from chaincfg in the future.
For main packages, a (typically global) var may be assigned the address of one of the standard Param vars for use as the application's "active" network. When a network parameter is needed, it may then be looked up through this variable (either directly, or hidden in a library call).
package main
import (
"flag"
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/binance-chain/btcutil"
"github.com/binance-chain/btcd/chaincfg"
)
var testnet = flag.Bool("testnet", false, "operate on the testnet Bitcoin network")
// By default (without -testnet), use mainnet.
var chainParams = &chaincfg.MainNetParams
func main() {
flag.Parse()
// Modify active network parameters if operating on testnet.
if *testnet {
chainParams = &chaincfg.TestNet3Params
}
// later...
// Create and print new payment address, specific to the active network.
pubKeyHash := make([]byte, 20)
addr, err := btcutil.NewAddressPubKeyHash(pubKeyHash, chainParams)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Println(addr)
}
If an application does not use one of the three standard Bitcoin networks, a new Params struct may be created which defines the parameters for the non-standard network. As a general rule of thumb, all network parameters should be unique to the network, but parameter collisions can still occur (unfortunately, this is the case with regtest and testnet3 sharing magics).

RegressionNetParams defines the network parameters for the regression test Bitcoin network. Not to be confused with the test Bitcoin network (version 3), this network is sometimes simply called "testnet".
var SigNetParams = CustomSignetParams( DefaultSignetChallenge, DefaultSignetDNSSeeds, )
SigNetParams defines the network parameters for the default public signet Bitcoin network. Not to be confused with the regression test network, this network is sometimes simply called "signet" or "taproot signet".

SimNetParams defines the network parameters for the simulation test Bitcoin network. This network is similar to the normal test network except it is intended for private use within a group of individuals doing simulation testing. The functionality is intended to differ in that the only nodes which are specifically specified are used to create the network rather than following normal discovery rules. This is important as otherwise it would just turn into another public testnet.

TestNet3Params defines the network parameters for the test Bitcoin network (version 3). Not to be confused with the regression test network, this network is sometimes simply called "testnet".
Functions ¶
func HDPrivateKeyToPublicKeyID ¶
HDPrivateKeyToPublicKeyID accepts a private hierarchical deterministic extended key id and returns the associated public key id. When the provided id is not registered, the ErrUnknownHDKeyID error will be returned.
func IsBech32SegwitPrefix ¶
IsBech32SegwitPrefix returns whether the prefix is a known prefix for segwit addresses on any default or registered network. This is used when decoding an address string into a specific address type.
func IsPubKeyHashAddrID ¶
IsPubKeyHashAddrID returns whether the id is an identifier known to prefix a pay-to-pubkey-hash address on any default or registered network. This is used when decoding an address string into a specific address type. It is up to the caller to check both this and IsScriptHashAddrID and decide whether an address is a pubkey hash address, script hash address, neither, or undeterminable (if both return true).
func IsScriptHashAddrID ¶
IsScriptHashAddrID returns whether the id is an identifier known to prefix a pay-to-script-hash address on any default or registered network. This is used when decoding an address string into a specific address type. It is up to the caller to check both this and IsPubKeyHashAddrID and decide whether an address is a pubkey hash address, script hash address, neither, or undeterminable (if both return true).
func Register ¶
Register registers the network parameters for a Bitcoin network. This may error with ErrDuplicateNet if the network is already registered (either due to a previous Register call, or the network being one of the default networks).
Network parameters should be registered into this package by a main package as early as possible. Then, library packages may lookup networks or network parameters based on inputs and work regardless of the network being standard or not.
func RegisterHDKeyID ¶
RegisterHDKeyID registers a public and private hierarchical deterministic extended key ID pair.
Non-standard HD version bytes, such as the ones documented in SLIP-0132, should be registered using this method for library packages to lookup key IDs (aka HD version bytes). When the provided key IDs are invalid, the ErrInvalidHDKeyID error will be returned.
Reference:
SLIP-0132 : Registered HD version bytes for BIP-0032 https://github.com/satoshilabs/slips/blob/master/slip-0132.md
Types ¶
type Checkpoint ¶
Checkpoint identifies a known good point in the block chain. Using checkpoints allows a few optimizations for old blocks during initial download and also prevents forks from old blocks.
Each checkpoint is selected based upon several factors. See the documentation for blockchain.IsCheckpointCandidate for details on the selection criteria.
type ConsensusDeployment ¶
type ConsensusDeployment struct {
// BitNumber defines the specific bit number within the block version
// this particular soft-fork deployment refers to.
BitNumber uint8
// StartTime is the median block time after which voting on the
// deployment starts.
StartTime uint64
// ExpireTime is the median block time after which the attempted
// deployment expires.
ExpireTime uint64
}
ConsensusDeployment defines details related to a specific consensus rule change that is voted in. This is part of BIP0009.
type DNSSeed ¶
type DNSSeed struct {
// Host defines the hostname of the seed.
Host string
// HasFiltering defines whether the seed supports filtering
// by service flags (wire.ServiceFlag).
HasFiltering bool
}
DNSSeed identifies a DNS seed.
type Params ¶
type Params struct {
// Name defines a human-readable identifier for the network.
Name string
// Net defines the magic bytes used to identify the network.
Net wire.BitcoinNet
// DefaultPort defines the default peer-to-peer port for the network.

Params defines a Bitcoin network by its parameters. These parameters may be used by Bitcoin applications to differentiate networks as well as addresses and keys for one network from those intended for use on another network.
func CustomSignetParams ¶
CustomSignetParams creates network parameters for a custom signet network from a challenge. The challenge is the binary compiled version of the block challenge script.
