Backends
|
|
========
|
|
|
|
Backends are the protocols and methods used to communicate with the Monero daemon and interact with
|
|
the wallet. As of the time of this writing, the only backends available in this library are:
|
|
|
|
* ``jsonrpc`` for the HTTP based RPC server,
|
|
* ``offline`` for running the wallet without Internet connection and even without the wallet file.
|
|
|
|
JSON RPC
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
This backend requires a running ``monero-wallet-rpc`` process with a Monero wallet file opened.
|
|
This can be on your local system or a remote node, depending on where the wallet file lives and
|
|
where the daemon is running. Refer to the quickstart for general setup information.
|
|
|
|
The Python `requests`_ library is used in order to facilitate HTTP requests to the JSON RPC
|
|
interface. It makes POST requests and passes proper headers, parameters, and payload data as per
|
|
the official `Wallet RPC`_ documentation.

Offline
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
This backend allows creating a `Wallet` instance without network connection or even without the
|
|
wallet itself. In version 0.5 the only practical use is to cold-generate
|
|
:doc:`subaddresses <address>` like in the example below:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: python
|
|
|
|
In [8]: w = Wallet(OfflineWallet('47ewoP19TN7JEEnFKUJHAYhGxkeTRH82sf36giEp9AcNfDBfkAtRLX7A6rZz18bbNHPNV7ex6WYbMN3aKisFRJZ8Ebsmgef', view_key='6d9056aa2c096bfcd2f272759555e5764ba204dd362604a983fa3e0aafd35901'))
|
|
|
|
In [9]: w.get_address(100,37847)
|
