In this commit, we add a new function, `ScriptTemplate` to make the process of making custom Bitcoin scripts a bit less verbose. ScriptTemplate processes a script template with parameters and returns the corresponding script bytes. This functions allows Bitcoin scripts to be created using a DSL-like syntax, based on Go's templating system. An example of a simple p2pkh template would be: `OP_DUP OP_HASH160 0x14e8948c7afa71b6e6fad621256474b5959e0305 OP_EQUALVERIFY OP_CHECKSIG` Strings that have the `0x` prefix are assumed to byte strings to be pushed ontop of the stack. Integers can be passed as normal. If a value can't be parsed as an integer, then it's assume that it's a byte slice without the 0x prefix. Normal go template operations can be used as well. The params argument houses paramters to pass into the script, for example a local variable storing a computed public key. |

txscript
Package txscript implements the bitcoin transaction script language. There is a comprehensive test suite.
This package has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing to use or validate bitcoin transaction scripts.
Bitcoin Scripts
Bitcoin provides a stack-based, FORTH-like language for the scripts in the bitcoin transactions. This language is not turing complete although it is still fairly powerful. A description of the language can be found at https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Script
Installation and Updating
$ go get -u github.com/btcsuite/btcd/txscript
Examples
-
Standard Pay-to-pubkey-hash Script
Demonstrates creating a script which pays to a bitcoin address. It also prints the created script hex and uses the DisasmString function to display the disassembled script. -
Extracting Details from Standard Scripts
Demonstrates extracting information from a standard public key script. -
Manually Signing a Transaction Output
Demonstrates manually creating and signing a redeem transaction. -
Counting Opcodes in Scripts
Demonstrates creating a script tokenizer instance and using it to count the number of opcodes a script contains.
GPG Verification Key
All official release tags are signed by Conformal so users can ensure the code has not been tampered with and is coming from the btcsuite developers. To verify the signature perform the following:
-
Download the public key from the Conformal website at https://opensource.conformal.com/GIT-GPG-KEY-conformal.txt
-
Import the public key into your GPG keyring:
gpg --import GIT-GPG-KEY-conformal.txt -
Verify the release tag with the following command where
TAG_NAMEis a placeholder for the specific tag:git tag -v TAG_NAME
