Develop Ethereum Cold Wallet Using Golang
Generate Ethereum HD wallet & offline sign && broadcast signed tx to network. Solution for eth cold wallet.
Install
Environment Require
- Golang
- Ethereum Private chain
- dep
- cgo or xgo (for go-ethereum dependency)
- MySQL (construct tx)
go get -u github.com/wenweih/eth-cold-wallet
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/wenweih/eth-cold-wallet
dep ensure -v -update
because of the codebase import go-ethereum, which is dependent on c, so cross compile need cgo. I hightly recommend a tool name xgo for Go CGO cross compiler, which is based on the concept of lightweight Linux containers.
go get github.com/karalabe/xgo
Next step is compile binary package for specify platform server, like this:
# for ubuner server
xgo --targets=linux/amd64 ./
if you are insterested in xgo usage, pls read the docutment: xgo#usage
Usage
Firstly, modify configure and put it in ~/eth-cold-wallet.yml
./eth-cold-wallet -h

construct transacion
we have generated some wallets, next step is send amount of eth to the address. By conveniently, we sent ETH using Private Ethereum in our laptop.Ethereum 私有链和 web3.js 使用
# deposit 30 ETH to test address
