pycashaccount 0.1.2

helper for creating cash accounts

Cash Account Helper

A helper library + cli to help you create a cash account.

Installation

Requires python3 for now.

pip install pycashaccount

Status / ToDo

It is very basic for now.

• OP_RETURN output for electron-cash op_return markdown
• OP_RETURN hex-like output
• additional payment types
• generate raw hex output that common node CLIs can use

CLI (command line interface) usage after installation

For example, get the information required for a key hash account (it uses a simple address):

cashaccount address emergent_reasons bitcoincash:qrme8l598x49gmjhn92dgwhk5a3znu5wfcf5uf94e9 --opreturn-hex

Generally:

cashaccount payment_type name payment_info --formatting

Get help:

cashaccount --help

cashaccount address --help

CLI usage directly from repository

Same usage as the installed cli, except you can call it from the cli script at the repository root:

./cli --help

Library usage

Look at cashaccount/cli.py for usage.

For example, create a registration from a name and payment information.

from cashaccount import PaymentKeyHash, Registration, opreturn_hexlike

name = 'emergent_reasons'
info = PaymentKeyHash('bitcoincash:qrme8l598x49gmjhn92dgwhk5a3znu5wfcf5uf94e9')
registration = Registration(name, info)
print(registration)
print(opreturn_hexlike(registration))
