bitcoin-rest is a Rust library for Bitcoin Core's REST API interface.
All API calls work with rust-bitcoin.
The following example fetches the genesis block and finally the block variable set to bitcoin::blockdata::block::Block
with the genesis block.
```rs use bitcoin::hash_types::BlockHash;
let rest = bitcoinrest::new(bitcoinrest::DEAFULTENDPOINT); // or new("http://HOSTNAME:PORT/rest/"); let blockid = BlockHash::fromstr("000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934ff763ae46a2a6c172b3f1b60a8ce26f").unwrap(); let block = rest.block(blockid).await.unwrap(); // block.blockhash().tostring() == "000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934ff763ae46a2a6c172b3f1b60a8ce26f" ```
