brk_types

Domain types for Bitcoin data analysis with serialization and indexing support.

What It Enables

Work with Bitcoin primitives (heights, satoshis, addresses, transactions) through purpose-built types that handle encoding, arithmetic, time conversions, and database storage automatically.

Key Features

• Bitcoin primitives: Height, Sats, Txid, BlockHash, Outpoint with full arithmetic and conversion support
• Address types: All output types (P2PK33, P2PK65, P2PKH, P2MS, P2SH, P2WPKH, P2WSH, P2TR, P2A, OP_RETURN) with address index variants
• Time indexes: DateIndex, WeekIndex, MonthIndex, QuarterIndex, SemesterIndex, YearIndex, DecadeIndex with cross-index conversion
• Protocol types: Epoch, Halving, TxVersion, RawLocktime
• Financial types: Dollars, Cents, OHLC (Open/High/Low/Close)
• Serialization: Serde + JSON Schema generation via schemars
• Compression: PCO (Pco) derive for columnar compression in vecdb

Type Categories

Core API

All types implement standard traits: Debug, Clone, Serialize, Deserialize, plus domain-specific operations like CheckedSub, Formattable, and PrintableIndex.

use brk_types::{Height, Sats, DateIndex, Date};

let height = Height::new(840_000);
let reward = Sats::FIFTY_BTC / 16;  // Post-4th-halving reward
let date_idx = DateIndex::try_from(Date::new(2024, 4, 20))?;
