• Support for compressed and uncompressed public keys.
• Print the entire wallet (private key, public key, and address) or specific parts.
• Option to print raw values for easy use in scripts.
• Generate shell completions for bash, elvish, fish, powershell, and zsh.

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Rust

Building

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/ZocketZero/btc-wallet-rust.git
   cd btc-wallet
   

2. Build the project:

   cargo build --release
   

   The executable will be located in target/release/btc-wallet.

Installation

You can install btc-wallet directly from crates.io using cargo:

cargo install btc-wallet

After installation, the btc-wallet executable will be available in your Cargo bin directory (usually ~/.cargo/bin).

Usage

Generate a wallet

To generate a wallet, use the following command:

btc-wallet "your-secret-seed-phrase"

This will print the private key, public key, and Bitcoin address.

Options

• --seed-text <TEXT>: Text to use as a seed for the wallet generation.
• -p, --print <MODE>: Print only a specific value.
  • all: Print all information (default).
  • secret: Print only the private key.
  • public: Print the public key and address.
• -r, --raw: Print only the raw value.
• -c, --compressed: Generate a compressed public key (default is false for uncompressed).
• --completion <SHELL>: Generate shell completion script for the specified shell.

Examples

• Generate a wallet with a compressed public key:

  btc-wallet "your-secret-seed-phrase" -c
  

• Print only the Bitcoin address:

  btc-wallet "your-secret-seed-phrase" -p public -r
  

• Generate a shell completion script for bash:

  btc-wallet --completion bash > /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/btc-wallet
