This converts the IsPayToScriptHash function to analyze the raw script instead of using the far less efficient parseScript, thereby significantly optimizing the function. In order to accomplish this, it introduces four new functions: extractCompressedPubKey, extractUncompressedPubKey, extractPubKey, and isPubKeyScript. The extractPubKey function makes use of extractCompressedPubKey and extractUncompressedPubKey to combine their functionality as a convenience and isPubKeyScript is defined in terms of extractPubKey. The extractCompressedPubKey works with the raw script bytes to simultaneously determine if the script is a pay-to-compressed-pubkey script, and in the case it is, extract and return the raw compressed pubkey bytes. Similarly, the extractUncompressedPubKey works in the same way except it determines if the script is a pay-to-uncompressed-pubkey script and returns the raw uncompressed pubkey bytes in the case it is. The extract function approach was chosen because it is common for callers to want to only extract relevant details from a script if the script is of the specific type. Extracting those details requires performing the exact same checks to ensure the script is of the correct type, so it is more efficient to combine the two into one and define the type determination in terms of the result so long as the extraction does not require allocations. The following is a before and after comparison of analyzing a large script: benchmark old ns/op new ns/op delta BenchmarkIsPubKeyScript-8 62323 2.97 -100.00% benchmark old allocs new allocs delta BenchmarkIsPubKeyScript-8 1 0 -100.00% benchmark old bytes new bytes delta BenchmarkIsPubKeyScript-8 311299 0 -100.00% |

txscript
Package txscript implements the bitcoin transaction script language. There is a comprehensive test suite.
This package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing to use or validate bitcoin transaction scripts.
Bitcoin Scripts
Bitcoin provides a stack-based, FORTH-like language for the scripts in the bitcoin transactions. This language is not turing complete although it is still fairly powerful. A description of the language can be found at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Script
Installation and Updating
$ go get -u github.com/btcsuite/btcd/txscript
Examples
-
Standard Pay-to-pubkey-hash Script
Demonstrates creating a script which pays to a bitcoin address. It also prints the created script hex and uses the DisasmString function to display the disassembled script. -
Extracting Details from Standard Scripts
Demonstrates extracting information from a standard public key script. -
Manually Signing a Transaction Output
Demonstrates manually creating and signing a redeem transaction. -
Counting Opcodes in Scripts
Demonstrates creating a script tokenizer instance and using it to count the number of opcodes a script contains.
GPG Verification Key
All official release tags are signed by Conformal so users can ensure the code has not been tampered with and is coming from the btcsuite developers. To verify the signature perform the following:
-
Download the public key from the Conformal website at https://opensource.conformal.com/GIT-GPG-KEY-conformal.txt
-
Import the public key into your GPG keyring:
gpg --import GIT-GPG-KEY-conformal.txt -
Verify the release tag with the following command where
TAG_NAMEis a placeholder for the specific tag:git tag -v TAG_NAME
