This Rust crate is a subcomponent of the Bitcoin system, providing various miscellaneous functions for interacting with a Bitcoin node via its remote procedure call (RPC) interface.
Notice: This crate is part of a direct translation from C++ to Rust of the Bitcoin core. As such, some of the function bodies may still be in the process of translation. Please note that this system will become testable once the translation process is complete.
Below are the RPC functions provided by this crate:
createmultisig: creates a P2SH multi-signature
address.
deriveaddresses: derives a set of addresses
from an extended public key or descriptor.
echo: returns the same input as output.
echo_default: returns a hardcoded string.
echoipc: sends a message to the Bitcoin IPC
interface and returns the same message as
output.
echojson: returns the same input as output in
JSON format.
enable_or_disable_log_categories: enables or
disables logging for specified log categories.
getdescriptorinfo: returns information about
a descriptor, such as the number of public keys
it contains.
getindexinfo: returns information about the
transaction index database.
getmemoryinfo: returns information about the
node's memory usage.
invokedisallowedsyscall: invokes a disallowed
system call for testing purposes.
logging: returns information about the node's
logging configuration.
mockscheduler: simulates a block scheduler for
testing purposes.
register_misc_rpc_commands: registers
miscellaneous RPC commands with the Bitcoin
node.
rpc_locked_memory_info: returns information
about the node's locked memory usage.
rpc_malloc_info: returns information about the
node's memory allocation usage.
setmocktime: sets the node's system time for
testing purposes.
signmessagewithprivkey: signs a message with
a private key.
summary_tojson: returns a summary of the
node's information in JSON format.
to: prints a string to the node's standard
output.
validateaddress: validates a Bitcoin address.
verifymessage: verifies a message signed with
a Bitcoin address and its corresponding
signature.
There are no mathematical ideas associated with these RPC functions.
