btcd Websockets Example
|
||
|
|
=======================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This example shows how to use the btcrpcclient 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 btcrpcclient
|
||
|
|
package:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
$ go get github.com/conformal/btcrpcclient
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Next, modify the `main.go` source to specify the correct RPC username and
|
||
|
|
password for the RPC server:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```Go
|
||
|
|
User: "yourrpcuser",
|
||
|
|
Pass: "yourrpcpass",
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Finally, navigate to the example's directory and run it with:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
$ cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/conformal/btcrpcclient/examples/btcdwebsockets
|
||
|
|
$ go run *.go
|
||
|
|
```
