Crate electrum_client

This library provides an extendable Bitcoin-Electrum client that supports batch calls, notifications and multiple transport methods.

By default this library is compiled with support for SSL servers using rustls and support for plaintext connections over a socks proxy, useful for Onion servers. Using different features, the SSL implementation can be removed or replaced with openssl.

A minimal configuration is also provided, which only includes the plaintext TCP client.

Example

use electrum_client::{Client, ElectrumApi};

let mut client = Client::new("tcp://electrum.blockstream.info:50001")?;
let response = client.server_features()?;
