dcrjson

Package dcrjson implements infrastructure for marshalling to and from the decred JSON-RPC API via concrete types. A comprehensive suite of tests is provided to ensure proper functionality.

Although this package was primarily written for the decred, it has intentionally been designed so it can be used as a standalone package for any projects needing to marshal to and from decred JSON-RPC requests and responses.

Note that although it's possible to use this package directly to implement an RPC client, it is not recommended since it is only intended as an infrastructure package. Instead, RPC clients should use the rpcclient package which provides a full blown RPC client with many features such as automatic connection management, websocket support, automatic notification re-registration on reconnect, and conversion from the raw underlying RPC types (strings, floats, ints, etc) to higher-level types with many nice and useful properties.
