dart_coinselect

An unspent transaction output (UTXO) selection module for bitcoin.

WARNING: Value units are in satoshis, not Bitcoin.

Installation

dart pub add dart_coinselect

Algorithms

Module Algorithm Re-orders UTXOs?
null Blackjack, with Accumulative fallback By Descending Value
AlgorithmsEnum.accumulative Accumulative - accumulates inputs until the target value (+fees) is reached, skipping detrimental inputs -
AlgorithmsEnum.blackjack Blackjack - accumulates inputs until the target value (+fees) is matched, does not accumulate inputs that go over the target value (within a threshold) -
AlgorithmsEnum.breakAlgo Break - breaks the input values into equal denominations of output (as provided) -
AlgorithmsEnum.split Split - splits the input values evenly between all outputs, any provided output with .value remains unchanged -

Note: Each algorithm will add a change output if the input - output - fee value difference is over a dust threshold. This is calculated independently by utils.finalize, irrespective of the algorithm chosen, for the purposes of safety.

Pro-tip: if you want to send-all inputs to an output address, AlgorithmsEnum.split with a partial output (.address defined, no .value) can be used to send-all, while leaving an appropriate amount for the fee.

Example

import 'package:dart_coinselect/coinselect.dart';

const feeRate = 55;

void main() {
  List<InputModel> utxos = [
    InputModel(
        i: 0,
        txid:
            '61d520ccb74288c96bc1a2b20ea1c0d5a704776dd0164a396efec3ea7040349d',
        value: 10000),
  ];

  List<OutputModel> outputs = [
    OutputModel(address: '1EHNa6Q4Jz2uvNExL497mE43ikXhwF6kZm', value: 5000)
  ];

  final selection = coinSelect(utxos, outputs, feeRate);

  print(selection);
  // Output is '{"fee": "10560"}"
  // the accumulated fee is always returned for analysis

  // .inputs and .outputs will be null if no solution was found
  if (selection.inputs == null || selection.outputs == null) return;

  // Create raw transaciton and sign it...
