Intro and Getting Started

Philosophy

Bitcoin-S is a loosely coupled set of cryptocurrency libraries for the JVM. They work well together, but also can be used independently. This project's goal is NOT to be a full node implementation, rather a set of scalable cryptocurrency libraries that use industry standard tools (rather than esoteric tech often found in cryptocurrency) where possible to make the lives of professional software engineers, security engineers, devops engineers and accountants easier. We are rapidly iterating on development with the goal of getting to a set of stable APIs that only change when the underlying bitcoin protocol changes.

If you are a professional working a cryptocurrency business and have feedback on how to make your lives easier, please reach out on slack, gitter or twitter!

Getting prebuilt artifacts

Java binaries

Latest release

Please see the release page on github, you can find it here

Master builds

We build installers for mac, linux and windows everytime a PR is merged to master.

You can find the latest builds at this link:

https://github.com/bitcoin-s/bitcoin-s/actions/workflows/release.yml

Here is what the installers look like

Docker

We publish docker images to docker hub on every PR merge and tag on github. You can obtain the images for both the app server and oracle server on these docker hub repos

bitcoin-s-server docker hub repo

bitcoin-s-oracle-server docker hub repo

Library jars

Add this to your build.sbt:

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-bitcoind-rpc" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-core" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-chain" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-dlc-oracle" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-eclair-rpc" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-fee-provider" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-key-manager" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-lnd-rpc" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-node" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-oracle-explorer-client" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" % "bitcoin-s-secp256k1jni" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-testkit-core" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-testkit" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-wallet" % "1.9.9"

libraryDependencies += "org.bitcoin-s" %% "bitcoin-s-zmq" % "1.9.9"

Nightly builds

You can also run on the bleeding edge of Bitcoin-S, by adding a snapshot build to your build.sbt. The most recent snapshot published is 1.9.9-146-cccaa582-SNAPSHOT.

To fetch snapshots, you will need to add the correct resolver in your build.sbt:

resolvers += Resolver.sonatypeRepo("snapshots")

The official maven repo for releases is

https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/bitcoin-s/

The repo for snapshots, which are published after everytime something is merged to master:

https://oss.sonatype.org/content/repositories/snapshots/org/bitcoin-s/
