29 | 24 | ## About |
30 | 25 |
|
31 | | -The `bdk` libraries aims to provide well engineered and reviewed components for Bitcoin based applications. |
32 | | -It is built upon the excellent [`rust-bitcoin`] and [`rust-miniscript`] crates. |
| 26 | +The `bdk` libraries aim to provide well engineered and reviewed components for Bitcoin wallets and other applications. |

34 | 29 | ## Architecture |
35 | 30 |
|
36 | | -The project is split up into several crates in the `/crates` directory: |
| 31 | +The workspace in this repository contains several crates in the `/crates` directory: |
37 | 32 |
|
38 | | -- [`wallet`](./crates/wallet): Contains the central high level `Wallet` type that is built from the low-level mechanisms provided by the other components |
39 | | -- [`chain`](./crates/chain): Tools for storing and indexing chain data |
40 | | -- [`file_store`](./crates/file_store): Persistence backend for storing chain data in a single file. Intended for testing and development purposes, not for production. |
41 | | -- [`esplora`](./crates/esplora): Extends the [`esplora-client`] crate with methods to fetch chain data from an esplora HTTP server in the form that [`bdk_chain`] and `Wallet` can consume. |
42 | | -- [`electrum`](./crates/electrum): Extends the [`electrum-client`] crate with methods to fetch chain data from an electrum server in the form that [`bdk_chain`] and `Wallet` can consume. |
| 33 | +| Sub-Directory | Description | Badges | |
| 34 | +|---------------|-------------|--------| |
| 35 | +| [`chain`](./crates/chain) | Tools for storing and indexing chain data. |   | |
| 36 | +| [`core`](./crates/core) | A collection of core structures used by the [`bdk_chain`], [`bdk_wallet`], and bdk chain data source crates. |   | |
| 37 | +| [`esplora`](./crates/esplora) | Extends the [`esplora-client`] crate with methods to fetch chain data from an esplora HTTP server in the form that [`bdk_chain`] and `Wallet` can consume. |   | |
| 38 | +| [`electrum`](./crates/electrum) | Extends the [`electrum-client`] crate with methods to fetch chain data from an electrum server in the form that [`bdk_chain`] and `Wallet` can consume. |   | |
| 39 | +| [`bitcoind_rpc`](./crates/bitcoind_rpc) | Extends [`bitcoincore-rpc`] for emitting blockchain data from the `bitcoind` RPC interface. |   | |
| 40 | +| [`file_store`](./crates/file_store) | Persistence backend for storing chain data in a single file. Intended for testing and development purposes, not for production. |   | |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +The [`bdk_wallet`] repository and crate contains a higher level `Wallet` type that depends on the above lower-level mechanism crates. |
43 | 43 |
|
44 | 44 | Fully working examples of how to use these components are in `/example-crates`: |
| 45 | + |
45 | 46 | - [`example_cli`](./example-crates/example_cli): Library used by the `example_*` crates. Provides utilities for syncing, showing the balance, generating addresses and creating transactions without using the bdk_wallet `Wallet`. |
46 | 47 | - [`example_electrum`](./example-crates/example_electrum): A command line Bitcoin wallet application built on top of `example_cli` and the `electrum` crate. It shows the power of the bdk tools (`chain` + `file_store` + `electrum`), without depending on the main `bdk_wallet` library. |
47 | 48 | - [`example_esplora`](./example-crates/example_esplora): A command line Bitcoin wallet application built on top of `example_cli` and the `esplora` crate. It shows the power of the bdk tools (`chain` + `file_store` + `esplora`), without depending on the main `bdk_wallet` library. |
48 | 49 | - [`example_bitcoind_rpc_polling`](./example-crates/example_bitcoind_rpc_polling): A command line Bitcoin wallet application built on top of `example_cli` and the `bitcoind_rpc` crate. It shows the power of the bdk tools (`chain` + `file_store` + `bitcoind_rpc`), without depending on the main `bdk_wallet` library. |
49 | | -- [`example_wallet_esplora_blocking`](./example-crates/example_wallet_esplora_blocking): Uses the `Wallet` to sync and spend using the Esplora blocking interface. |
50 | | -- [`example_wallet_esplora_async`](./example-crates/example_wallet_esplora_async): Uses the `Wallet` to sync and spend using the Esplora asynchronous interface. |
51 | | -- [`example_wallet_electrum`](./example-crates/example_wallet_electrum): Uses the `Wallet` to sync and spend using Electrum. |
