Python client for interacting with the Hyperlabs Bitcoin API

Project description

APIBTC - Current Status

Please Note: Currently, our publicly hosted API endpoint is available exclusively on the Bitcoin regtest network for development and testing purposes.

  • API Documentation (Swagger): The regtest API documentation is available via Swagger here.
  • Mainnet Environment: We do not provide a publicly hosted mainnet API endpoint. You can run your own mainnet instance using the provided Docker image.
  • More Information: For further details about the project, Docker images, and setup instructions, please visit the main project website.

⚠️ Important: The public API operates on regtest. Do not send real Bitcoin (BTC) to any addresses generated or used via this public regtest endpoint.

# Create two wallets
# Wallet 1 - Invoice Creator

# Wallet 2 - Invoice Payer

# Payment flow
# Create invoice with wallet1
invoice = wallet1.addinvoice(satoshis=1000, memo="Payment from wallet2", expiry=3600)

# Pay invoice with wallet2

# Check balances after payment
print("Wallet1 balance:", wallet1.getbalance())
print("Wallet2 balance:", wallet2.getbalance())
