PyWaves

PyWaves is an object-oriented Python interface to the Waves blockchain platform.

Getting Started

You can install PyWaves using:

pip install pywaves

Documentation

The library utilizes classes to represent various Waves data structures:

pywaves.Address
pywaves.Asset
pywaves.AssetPair
pywaves.Order

Connecting to a different node or chain

PyWaves supports both mainnet and testnet chains. By default, PyWaves connects to the mainnet RPC server at https://nodes.wavesnodes.com. It's possible to specify a different server and chain with the setNode() function

import pywaves as pw

# connects to a local testnet node
pw.setNode(node = 'http://127.0.0.1:6869', chain = 'testnet')

# connects to a local mainnet node
pw.setNode(node = 'http://127.0.0.1:6869', chain = 'mainnet')
