BDK
A modern, lightweight, descriptor-based wallet library written in Rust!
Project Homepage | Documentation
About
The bdk
library aims to be the core building block for Bitcoin wallets of any kind.
- It uses Miniscript to support descriptors with generalized conditions. This exact same library can be used to build single-sig wallets, multisigs, timelocked contracts and more.
- It supports multiple blockchain backends and databases, allowing developers to choose exactly what's right for their projects.
- It's built to be cross-platform: the core logic works on desktop, mobile, and even WebAssembly.
- It's very easy to extend: developers can implement customized logic for blockchain backends, databases, signers, coin selection, and more, without having to fork and modify this library.
Examples
Sync the balance of a descriptor
use bdk::Wallet;
use bdk::database::MemoryDatabase;
use bdk::blockchain::ElectrumBlockchain;
use bdk::SyncOptions;
use bdk::electrum_client::Client;
use bdk::bitcoin::Network;
fn main() -> Result<(), bdk::Error> {
let blockchain = ElectrumBlockchain::from(Client::new("ssl://electrum.blockstream.info:60002")?);
let wallet = Wallet::new(
"wpkh([c258d2e4/84h/1h/0h]tpubDDYkZojQFQjht8Tm4jsS3iuEmKjTiEGjG6KnuFNKKJb5A6ZUCUZKdvLdSDWofKi4ToRCwb9poe1XdqfUnP4jaJjCB2Zwv11ZLgSbnZSNecE/0/*)",
Some("wpkh([c258d2e4/84h/1h/0h]tpubDDYkZojQFQjht8Tm4jsS3iuEmKjTiEGjG6KnuFNKKJb5A6ZUCUZKdvLdSDWofKi4ToRCwb9poe1XdqfUnP4jaJjCB2Zwv11ZLgSbnZSNecE/1/*)"),
Network::Testnet,
MemoryDatabase::default(),
)?;
wallet.sync(&blockchain, SyncOptions::default())?;
println!("Descriptor balance: {} SAT", wallet.get_balance()?);
Ok(())
}
Generate a few addresses
use bdk::{Wallet, database::MemoryDatabase};
use bdk::wallet::AddressIndex::New;
use bdk::bitcoin::Network;
fn main() -> Result<(), bdk::Error> {
let wallet = Wallet::new(
"wpkh([c258d2e4/84h/1h/0h]tpubDDYkZojQFQjht8Tm4jsS3iuEmKjTiEGjG6KnuFNKKJb5A6ZUCUZKdvLdSDWofKi4ToRCwb9poe1XdqfUnP4jaJjCB2Zwv11ZLgSbnZSNecE/0/*)",
Some("wpkh([c258d2e4/84h/1h/0h]tpubDDYkZojQFQjht8Tm4jsS3iuEmKjTiEGjG6KnuFNKKJb5A6ZUCUZKdvLdSDWofKi4ToRCwb9poe1XdqfUnP4jaJjCB2Zwv11ZLgSbnZSNecE/1/*)"),
Network::Testnet,
MemoryDatabase::default(),
)?;
println!("Address #0: {}", wallet.get_address(New)?);
println!("Address #1: {}", wallet.get_address(New)?);
println!("Address #2: {}", wallet.get_address(New)?);
Ok(())

Create a transaction
use bdk::{FeeRate, Wallet, SyncOptions};
use bdk::database::MemoryDatabase;
use bdk::blockchain::ElectrumBlockchain;
use bdk::electrum_client::Client;
use bdk::wallet::AddressIndex::New;
use base64;
use bdk::bitcoin::consensus::serialize;
use bdk::bitcoin::Network;
fn main() -> Result<(), bdk::Error> {
let blockchain = ElectrumBlockchain::from(Client::new("ssl://electrum.blockstream.info:60002")?);
let wallet = Wallet::new(
"wpkh([c258d2e4/84h/1h/0h]tpubDDYkZojQFQjht8Tm4jsS3iuEmKjTiEGjG6KnuFNKKJb5A6ZUCUZKdvLdSDWofKi4ToRCwb9poe1XdqfUnP4jaJjCB2Zwv11ZLgSbnZSNecE/0/*)",

Network::Testnet,
MemoryDatabase::default(),

wallet.sync(&blockchain, SyncOptions::default())?;
let send_to = wallet.get_address(New)?;
let (psbt, details) = {
let mut builder = wallet.build_tx();
builder
.add_recipient(send_to.script_pubkey(), 50_000)
.enable_rbf()
.do_not_spend_change()
.fee_rate(FeeRate::from_sat_per_vb(5.0));
builder.finish()?
};
println!("Transaction details: {:#?}", details);
println!("Unsigned PSBT: {}", base64::encode(&serialize(&psbt)));
Ok(())
}
Sign a transaction
use bdk::{Wallet, SignOptions, database::MemoryDatabase};
use base64;
use bdk::bitcoin::consensus::deserialize;
use bdk::bitcoin::Network;
fn main() -> Result<(), bdk::Error> {
let wallet = Wallet::new(

Testing
Unit testing
cargo test
Integration testing
Integration testing require testing features, for example:
cargo test --features test-electrum
The other options are test-esplora
, test-rpc
or test-rpc-legacy
which runs against an older version of Bitcoin Core.
Note that electrs
and bitcoind
binaries are automatically downloaded (on mac and linux), to specify you already have installed binaries you must use --no-default-features
and provide BITCOIND_EXE
and ELECTRS_EXE
as environment variables.
Running under WASM
If you want to run this library under WASM you will probably have to add the following lines to you Cargo.toml
:
[dependencies]
getrandom = { version = "0.2", features = ["js"] }
This enables the rand
crate to work in environments where JavaScript is available. See this link to learn more.
