This project is in early development, it does however work with real sats! Always use amounts you don't mind losing.
Cashu Development Kit
CDK is a collection of rust crates for Cashu wallets and mints written in Rust.
ALPHA This library is in early development, the api will change and should be used with caution.
Quick Start
CDK uses Nix flakes to manage development environments. We provide a lean default shell for standard development and a full-stack shell for integration testing.
# Enter the lean development shell (Rust + PostgreSQL)
nix develop
# OR enter the full regtest environment (Bitcoind + Lightning Nodes)
nix develop .#regtest
For more details on available environments, see the Development Guide.
Project structure
The project is split up into several crates in the crates/ directory:
- Libraries:
- cashu: Core Cashu protocol implementation.
- cdk: Rust implementation of Cashu protocol.
- cdk-sqlite: SQLite Storage backend.
- cdk-postgres: PostgreSQL Storage backend.
- cdk-redb: Redb Storage backend.
- cdk-axum: Axum webserver for mint.
- cdk-cln: CLN Lightning backend for mint.
- cdk-lnd: Lnd Lightning backend for mint.
- cdk-lnbits: LNbits Lightning backend for mint. Note: Only LNBits v1 API is supported.
- cdk-ldk-node: LDK Node Lightning backend for mint.
- cdk-fake-wallet: Fake Lightning backend for mint. To be used only for testing, quotes are automatically filled.
- cdk-common: Common utilities and shared code.
