Wrapping transactions as `Arc<Transaction>` allows us to share transactions cheaply between the chain-source and receiving structures. Therefore the chain-source can keep already-fetched transactions (save bandwidth) and have a shared pointer to the transactions (save memory). This is better than the current way we do things, which is to refer back to the receiving structures mid-sync. Documentation for `TxGraph` is also updated.
BDK Esplora
BDK Esplora extends esplora-client
to update bdk_chain
structures
from an Esplora server.
Usage
There are two versions of the extension trait (blocking and async).
For blocking-only:
bdk_esplora = { version = "0.3", features = ["blocking"] }
For async-only:
bdk_esplora = { version = "0.3", features = ["async"] }
For async-only (with https):
bdk_esplora = { version = "0.3", features = ["async-https"] }
To use the extension traits:
// for blocking
use bdk_esplora::EsploraExt;
// for async
// use bdk_esplora::EsploraAsyncExt;
