1. Overview
===========

OCaml-bitcoin is a library offering an OCaml interface to the official
Bitcoin client API [1].  It works by making JSON-RPC calls over the
network to a running Bitcoin daemon offering the client API.


2. Dependencies
===============

The core library depends solely on Yojson and Cryptokit [2,3].
The optional auxiliary engines each have their own set of dependencies:

  * Bitcoin_ocamlnet: Ocamlnet's Netclient [4].
  * Bitcoin_ocsigen: Lwt and the Ocsigen server libraries [5,6].
  * Bitcoin_cohttp_lwt: Lwt and Cohttp [5,7].
  * Bitcoin_cohttp_async: Async and Cohttp.
  * Bitcoin_ocurl: OCurl [8].


3. Building and installing
==========================

This project is managed by dune and should be installable via opam.

Example opam installation command.

```
opam install bitcoin-cohttp-async
```

To use in your project simply list `bitcoin-cohttp-async` in your dune
libraries stanza.
