Package wire implements the bitcoin wire protocol. A comprehensive suite of tests with 100% test coverage is provided to ensure proper functionality.

There is an associated blog post about the release of this package here.

This package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing to interface with bitcoin peers at the wire protocol level.

Installation and Updating

$ go get -u github.com/gcash/bchd/wire

Bitcoin Message Overview

The bitcoin protocol consists of exchanging messages between peers. Each message is preceded by a header which identifies information about it such as which bitcoin network it is a part of, its type, how big it is, and a checksum to verify validity. All encoding and decoding of message headers is handled by this package.

To accomplish this, there is a generic interface for bitcoin messages named Message which allows messages of any type to be read, written, or passed around through channels, functions, etc. In addition, concrete implementations of most of the currently supported bitcoin messages are provided. For these supported messages, all of the details of marshalling and unmarshalling to and from the wire using bitcoin encoding are handled so the caller doesn't have to concern themselves with the specifics.

Reading Messages Example

In order to unmarshal bitcoin messages from the wire, use the ReadMessage function. It accepts any io.Reader, but typically this will be a net.Conn to a remote node running a bitcoin peer. Example syntax is:

	// Use the most recent protocol version supported by the package and the
	// main bitcoin network.
	pver := wire.ProtocolVersion
	bchnet := wire.MainNet

	// Reads and validates the next bitcoin message from conn using the
	// protocol version pver and the bitcoin network bchnet.  The returns
	// are a wire.Message, a []byte which contains the unmarshalled
	// raw payload, and a possible error.
	msg, rawPayload, err := wire.ReadMessage(conn, pver, bchnet)
	if err != nil {
		// Log and handle the error
	}

See the package documentation for details on determining the message type.

Writing Messages Example

In order to marshal bitcoin messages to the wire, use the WriteMessage function. It accepts any io.Writer, but typically this will be a net.Conn to a remote node running a bitcoin peer. Example syntax to request addresses from a remote peer is:

	// Use the most recent protocol version supported by the package and the
	// main bitcoin network.
	pver := wire.ProtocolVersion
	bchnet := wire.MainNet

	// Create a new getaddr bitcoin message.
	msg := wire.NewMsgGetAddr()

	// Writes a bitcoin message msg to conn using the protocol version
	// pver, and the bitcoin network bchnet.  The return is a possible
	// error.
	err := wire.WriteMessage(conn, msg, pver, bchnet)
	if err != nil {
		// Log and handle the error
	}

Overview

Package wire implements the bitcoin wire protocol.

For the complete details of the bitcoin protocol, see the official wiki entry at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_specification. The following only serves as a quick overview to provide information on how to use the package.

At a high level, this package provides support for marshalling and unmarshalling supported bitcoin messages to and from the wire. This package does not deal with the specifics of message handling such as what to do when a message is received. This provides the caller with a high level of flexibility.

Bitcoin Message Overview

The bitcoin cash protocol consists of exchanging messages between peers. Each message is preceded by a header which identifies information about it such as which bitcoin network it is a part of, its type, how big it is, and a checksum to verify validity. All encoding and decoding of message headers is handled by this package.

To accomplish this, there is a generic interface for bitcoin cash messages named Message which allows messages of any type to be read, written, or passed around through channels, functions, etc. In addition, concrete implementations of most of the currently supported bitcoin messages are provided. For these supported messages, all of the details of marshalling and unmarshalling to and from the wire using bitcoin encoding are handled so the caller doesn't have to concern themselves with the specifics.

Message Interaction

The following provides a quick summary of how the bitcoin cash messages are intended to interact with one another. As stated above, these interactions are not indirectly handled by this package. For more in-depth details about the appropriate interactions, see the official bitcoin cash protocol wiki entry at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Protocol_specification.

The initial handshake consists of two peers sending each other a version message (MsgVersion) followed by responding with a verack message (MsgVerAck). Both peers use the information in the version message (MsgVersion) to negotiate things such as protocol version and supported services with each other. Once the initial handshake is complete, the following chart indicates message interactions in no particular order.

Peer A Sends                          Peer B Responds
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
getaddr message (MsgGetAddr)          addr message (MsgAddr)
getblocks message (MsgGetBlocks)      inv message (MsgInv)
inv message (MsgInv)                  getdata message (MsgGetData)
getdata message (MsgGetData)          block message (MsgBlock) -or-
                                      tx message (MsgTx) -or-
                                      notfound message (MsgNotFound)
getheaders message (MsgGetHeaders)    headers message (MsgHeaders)
ping message (MsgPing)                pong message (MsgHeaders)* -or-
                                      (none -- Ability to send message is enough)

NOTES:
* The pong message was not added until later protocol versions as defined
  in BIP0031.  The BIP0031Version constant can be used to detect a recent
  enough protocol version for this purpose (version > BIP0031Version).

Common Parameters

There are several common parameters that arise when using this package to read and write bitcoin cash messages. The following sections provide a quick overview of these parameters so the next sections can build on them.

Protocol Version

The protocol version should be negotiated with the remote peer at a higher level than this package via the version (MsgVersion) message exchange, however, this package provides the wire.ProtocolVersion constant which indicates the latest protocol version this package supports and is typically the value to use for all outbound connections before a potentially lower protocol version is negotiated.

Bitcoin Cash Network

The bitcoin cash network is a magic number which is used to identify the start of a message and which bitcoin cash network the message applies to. This package provides the following constants:

wire.MainNet
wire.TestNet  (Regression test network)
wire.TestNet3 (Test network version 3)
wire.SimNet   (Simulation test network)

Determining Message Type

As discussed in the bitcoin cash message overview section, this package reads and writes bitcoin cash messages using a generic interface named Message. In order to determine the actual concrete type of the message, use a type switch or type assertion. An example of a type switch follows:

// Assumes msg is already a valid concrete message such as one created
// via NewMsgVersion or read via ReadMessage.
switch msg := msg.(type) {
case *wire.MsgVersion:
	// The message is a pointer to a MsgVersion struct.
	fmt.Printf("Protocol version: %v", msg.ProtocolVersion)
case *wire.MsgBlock:
	// The message is a pointer to a MsgBlock struct.
	fmt.Printf("Number of tx in block: %v", msg.Header.TxnCount)
}

Reading Messages

In order to unmarshall bitcoin cash messages from the wire, use the ReadMessage function. It accepts any io.Reader, but typically this will be a net.Conn to a remote node running a bitcoin cash peer. Example syntax is:

// Reads and validates the next bitcoin cash message from conn using the
// protocol version pver and the bitcoin cash network bchnet.  The returns
// are a wire.Message, a []byte which contains the unmarshalled
// raw payload, and a possible error.
msg, rawPayload, err := wire.ReadMessage(conn, pver, bchnet)
if err != nil {
	// Log and handle the error
}

Writing Messages

In order to marshall bitcoin cash messages to the wire, use the WriteMessage function. It accepts any io.Writer, but typically this will be a net.Conn to a remote node running a bitcoin cash peer. Example syntax to request addresses from a remote peer is:

// Create a new getaddr bitcoin cash message.
msg := wire.NewMsgGetAddr()

// Writes a bitcoin cash message msg to conn using the protocol version
// pver, and the bitcoin cash network bchnet.  The return is a possible
// error.
err := wire.WriteMessage(conn, msg, pver, bchnet)
if err != nil {
	// Log and handle the error
}

Errors

Errors returned by this package are either the raw errors provided by underlying calls to read/write from streams such as io.EOF, io.ErrUnexpectedEOF, and io.ErrShortWrite, or of type wire.MessageError. This allows the caller to differentiate between general IO errors and malformed messages through type assertions.

Functions

func MaxBlockPayload

func MaxBlockPayload() uint32

MaxBlockPayload returns the maximum bytes a block message can be in bytes.

func RandomUint64

func RandomUint64() (uint64, error)

RandomUint64 returns a cryptographically random uint64 value.

func ReadVarBytes

func ReadVarBytes(r io.Reader, pver uint32, maxAllowed uint32,
	fieldName string) ([]byte, error)

ReadVarBytes reads a variable length byte array. A byte array is encoded as a varInt containing the length of the array followed by the bytes themselves. An error is returned if the length is greater than the passed maxAllowed parameter which helps protect against memory exhaustion attacks and forced panics through malformed messages. The fieldName parameter is only used for the error message so it provides more context in the error.

func ReadVarInt

func ReadVarInt(r io.Reader, pver uint32) (uint64, error)

ReadVarInt reads a variable length integer from r and returns it as a uint64.

func ReadVarString

func ReadVarString(r io.Reader, pver uint32) (string, error)

ReadVarString reads a variable length string from r and returns it as a Go string. A variable length string is encoded as a variable length integer containing the length of the string followed by the bytes that represent the string itself. An error is returned if the length is greater than the maximum block payload size since it helps protect against memory exhaustion attacks and forced panics through malformed messages.

func SetLimits

func SetLimits(excessiveBlockSize uint32)

SetLimits adjusts various message limits based on max block size configuration.

func VarIntSerializeSize

func VarIntSerializeSize(val uint64) int

VarIntSerializeSize returns the number of bytes it would take to serialize val as a variable length integer.

func WriteMessage

func WriteMessage(w io.Writer, msg Message, pver uint32, bchnet BitcoinNet) error

WriteMessage writes a bitcoin Message to w including the necessary header information. This function is the same as WriteMessageN except it doesn't doesn't return the number of bytes written. This function is mainly provided for backwards compatibility with the original API, but it's also useful for callers that don't care about byte counts.

func WriteMessageN

func WriteMessageN(w io.Writer, msg Message, pver uint32, bchnet BitcoinNet) (int, error)

WriteMessageN writes a bitcoin Message to w including the necessary header information and returns the number of bytes written. This function is the same as WriteMessage except it also returns the number of bytes written.

func WriteMessageWithEncodingN

func WriteMessageWithEncodingN(w io.Writer, msg Message, pver uint32,
	bchnet BitcoinNet, encoding MessageEncoding) (int, error)

WriteMessageWithEncodingN writes a bitcoin Message to w including the necessary header information and returns the number of bytes written. This function is the same as WriteMessageN except it also allows the caller to specify the message encoding format to be used when serializing wire messages.

func WriteTxOut

func WriteTxOut(w io.Writer, pver uint32, version int32, to *TxOut) error

WriteTxOut encodes to into the bitcoin protocol encoding for a transaction output (TxOut) to w.

NOTE: This function is exported in order to allow txscript to compute the new sighashes for witness transactions (BIP0143).

func WriteVarBytes

func WriteVarBytes(w io.Writer, pver uint32, bytes []byte) error

WriteVarBytes serializes a variable length byte array to w as a varInt containing the number of bytes, followed by the bytes themselves.

func WriteVarInt

func WriteVarInt(w io.Writer, pver uint32, val uint64) error

WriteVarInt serializes val to w using a variable number of bytes depending on its value.

func WriteVarString

func WriteVarString(w io.Writer, pver uint32, str string) error

WriteVarString serializes str to w as a variable length integer containing the length of the string followed by the bytes that represent the string itself.

Types

type BitcoinNet

type BitcoinNet uint32

BitcoinNet represents which bitcoin network a message belongs to.

const (
	// MainNet represents the main bitcoin network.
	MainNet BitcoinNet = 0xe8f3e1e3

	// TestNet represents the regression test network.
	TestNet BitcoinNet = 0xfabfb5da

	// TestNet3 represents the test network (version 3).
	TestNet3 BitcoinNet = 0xf4f3e5f4

	// TestNet4 represents the test network (version 4).
	TestNet4 BitcoinNet = 0xafdab7e2

	// SimNet represents the simulation test network.
	SimNet BitcoinNet = 0x12141c16
)

Constants used to indicate the message bitcoin network. They can also be used to seek to the next message when a stream's state is unknown, but this package does not provide that functionality since it's generally a better idea to simply disconnect clients that are misbehaving over TCP.

func (BitcoinNet) String

func (n BitcoinNet) String() string

String returns the BitcoinNet in human-readable form.

type BlockHeader

type BlockHeader struct {
	// Version of the block.  This is not the same as the protocol version.
	Version int32

	// Hash of the previous block header in the block chain.
	PrevBlock chainhash.Hash

	// Merkle tree reference to hash of all transactions for the block.
	MerkleRoot chainhash.Hash

	// Time the block was created.  This is, unfortunately, encoded as a
	// uint32 on the wire and therefore is limited to 2106.
	Timestamp time.Time

	// Difficulty target for the block.
	Bits uint32

	// Nonce used to generate the block.
	Nonce uint32
}

BlockHeader defines information about a block and is used in the bitcoin block (MsgBlock) and headers (MsgHeaders) messages.

func NewBlockHeader

func NewBlockHeader(version int32, prevHash, merkleRootHash *chainhash.Hash,
	bits uint32, nonce uint32) *BlockHeader

func (*BlockHeader) BchDecode

func (h *BlockHeader) BchDecode(r io.Reader, pver uint32, enc MessageEncoding) error

BchDecode decodes r using the bitcoin protocol encoding into the receiver. This is part of the Message interface implementation. See Deserialize for decoding block headers stored to disk, such as in a database, as opposed to decoding block headers from the wire.

func (*BlockHeader) BchEncode

func (h *BlockHeader) BchEncode(w io.Writer, pver uint32, enc MessageEncoding) error

BchEncode encodes the receiver to w using the bitcoin protocol encoding. This is part of the Message interface implementation. See Serialize for encoding block headers to be stored to disk, such as in a database, as opposed to encoding block headers for the wire.

func (*BlockHeader) BlockHash

func (h *BlockHeader) BlockHash() chainhash.Hash

BlockHash computes the block identifier hash for the given block header.

func (*BlockHeader) Deserialize

func (h *BlockHeader) Deserialize(r io.Reader) error

func (*BlockHeader) Serialize

func (h *BlockHeader) Serialize(w io.Writer) error

Serialize encodes a block header from r into the receiver using a format that is suitable for long-term storage such as a database while respecting the Version field.

type BloomUpdateType

type BloomUpdateType uint8

BloomUpdateType specifies how the filter is updated when a match is found

const (
	// BloomUpdateNone indicates the filter is not adjusted when a match is
	// found.
	BloomUpdateNone BloomUpdateType = 0

	// BloomUpdateAll indicates if the filter matches any data element in a
	// public key script, the outpoint is serialized and inserted into the
	// filter.
	BloomUpdateAll BloomUpdateType = 1

	// BloomUpdateP2PubkeyOnly indicates if the filter matches a data
	// element in a public key script and the script is of the standard
	// pay-to-pubkey or multisig, the outpoint is serialized and inserted
	// into the filter.
	BloomUpdateP2PubkeyOnly BloomUpdateType = 2
)

type FilterType

type FilterType uint8

FilterType is used to represent a filter type.

const (
	// GCSFilterRegular is the regular filter type.
	GCSFilterRegular FilterType = iota
)

type InvType

type InvType uint32

InvType represents the allowed types of inventory vectors. See InvVect.

const (
	InvTypeError         InvType = 0
	InvTypeTx            InvType = 1
	InvTypeBlock         InvType = 2
	InvTypeFilteredBlock InvType = 3
	InvTypeCmpctBlock    InvType = 4
)

These constants define the various supported inventory vector types.

func (InvType) String

func (invtype InvType) String() string

String returns the InvType in human-readable form.

type InvVect

type InvVect struct {
	Type InvType        // Type of data
	Hash chainhash.Hash // Hash of the data
}

func NewInvVect

func NewInvVect(typ InvType, hash *chainhash.Hash) *InvVect

NewInvVect returns a new InvVect using the provided type and hash.

type Message

type Message interface {
	BchDecode(io.Reader, uint32, MessageEncoding) error
	BchEncode(io.Writer, uint32, MessageEncoding) error
	Command() string
	MaxPayloadLength(uint32) uint32
}

Message is an interface that describes a bitcoin message. A type that implements Message has complete control over the representation of its data and may therefore contain additional or fewer fields than those which are used directly in the protocol encoded message.

func ReadMessage

func ReadMessage(r io.Reader, pver uint32, bchnet BitcoinNet) (Message, []byte, error)

MsgVersion implements the Message interface and represents a bitcoin version message. It is used for a peer to advertise itself as soon as an outbound connection is made. The remote peer then uses this information along with its own to negotiate. The remote peer must then respond with a version message of its own containing the negotiated values followed by a verack message (MsgVerAck). This exchange must take place before any further communication is allowed to proceed.
