Getting Started with Bitcoin (Embedded Daemon)

Overview

Conforms to RPCTransport only (not WalletCapableTransport) — wallet scoping is not supported over IPC. Throws RPCClientError.walletPathNotSupported if path is non-nil.

Topics

Initializers

init(timeout: TimeInterval)
Creates a direct transport that calls bitcoin_rpc() in-process.

Instance Properties

var timeout: TimeInterval
Timeout for the blocking bitcoin_rpc() call. Matches Bitcoin Core’s default -rpcservertimeout (30 s). After this interval the continuation resumes with URLError(.timedOut); the GCD thread keeps running (a synchronous C call cannot be cancelled) and frees its memory on return.

Instance Methods

func send(JSONRPCRequest, path: String?) async throws -> Data
Sends a JSON-RPC request directly to the in-process bitcoin_rpc() C bridge.
