Official Python Golos Library

golos-python is the official Golos library for Python. It comes with a BIP38 encrypted wallet and a practical CLI utility called golospy.

Compatibility

This library version is compatible only with golosd versions 0.16.5 and above.

For golosd 0.16.4 use piston-lib instead.

Installation with pipenv (recommended)

Install pipenv first if you don't have it:

pip3 install --upgrade --user pipenv

Then, install steem-python using it:

git clone https://github.com/GolosChain/golos-python.git
cd golos-python
pipenv install --three --dev        # use --two instead of --three for Python 2.7
pipenv install .

Installation with pip3

Note that installation using pip3 requires that the pipenv module be installed to parse the requirements out of the Pipfile so that pip3 can do the install. If you get an error about pipenv not being found, you can resolve it with a pip3 install --upgrade --user pipenv, then the install with pip3 will work as usual.

pip install -U 'git+https://github.com/GolosChain/golos-python.git#egg=steem'

or

git clone https://github.com/GolosChain/golos-python.git
cd golos-python
pip3 install --user .

Homebrew Build Prereqs

If you're on a mac, you may need to do the following first:

brew install openssl
export CFLAGS="-I$(brew --prefix openssl)/include $CFLAGS"
export LDFLAGS="-L$(brew --prefix openssl)/lib $LDFLAGS"

CLI tools bundled

The library comes with a few console scripts.

  • steempy:
    • rudimentary blockchain CLI (needs some TLC and more TLAs)
  • steemtail:
    • useful for e.g. steemtail -f -j | jq --unbuffered --sort-keys .

Documentation

Documentation is available at http://steem.readthedocs.io

  • more unit tests
  • 100% documentation coverage, consistent documentation
