Defichain Python Library

This library is not finished yet and therefore should not be used in production!

Welcome to Defichain's Python Library

Welcome to the Python Library for the Defichain!

In this library all RPC commands of a Defichain Node are available and can be called in a few lines of code!

If you just want to query data from the blockchain you can also use the Ocean API: you don't need a Defichain Node for this, just an internet connection!

But first we need to install it:

Installation

pip install defichain

Example Code for RPC

from defichain import Node

node = Node("user", "password", "127.0.0.1", 8554)

node.blockchain.getblockcount() #  returns block height of the latest block

node.poolpair.compositeswap("fromAddress", "BTC", 0.01, "toAddress", "DFI")  # swaps 0.01 BTC to DFI

Example Code for Ocean API

from defichain import Ocean

ocean = Ocean() #  creates the connection to Ocean

ocean.blocks.list() #  returns the latest 30 blocks 

ocean.poolpairs.get(4) #  returns data from ETH-DFI Pool

Next Steps

• Finish the RPC Code
• Better error handling for Ocean API
• Write unit tests for RPC and Ocean commands
• Document all functions and publish it on ReadTheDocs
