This is a fork of a dogecoin-python library focused on a Python 3 support only. Note that you are looking for python-dogecoin version on PyPI instead of original dogecoin-python.

This package allows performing commands such as listing the current balance and sending coins to the Satoshi (original) client from Python. The communication with the client happens over JSON-RPC.

📖 Documentation for the library can be found here.

🍋 This project uses podmena library to add fancy icons to commit messages.

pip install python-dogecoin

result = conn.validateaddress(address)
print(result)

For other examples and code snippets check documentation.

Poetry is used to manage virtual environment and project's dependencies as well as building the final package.

poetry install --all-extras

Formatting your code after adding changes

make format

To launch basic set of unittests

make tests
# or the same underlying command
poetry run pytest -sv tests/

To launch integration tests you need Dogecoin server to be up and running and configured to use testnet.
