Ethereum Go is split up in several sub packages Please refer to each
|
||||
individual package for more information.
|
||||
1. [eth](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum)
|
||||
2. [ethchain](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethchain)
|
||||
3. [ethwire](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethwire)
|
||||
4. [ethdb](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethdb)
|
||||
5. [ethutil](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethutil)
|
||||
6. [ethpipe](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethpipe)
|
||||
7. [ethvm](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethvm)

8. [ethtrie](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethtrie)
|
||||
9. [ethreact](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethreact)

10. [ethlog](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethlog)
|
||||
|
||||
The [eth](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum) is the top-level package
|
||||
of the Ethereum protocol. It functions as the Ethereum bootstrapping and
|
||||
peer communication layer. The [ethchain](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethchain)
|
||||
contains the Ethereum blockchain, block manager, transaction and
|
||||
transaction handlers. The [ethwire](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethwire) contains
|
||||
the Ethereum [wire protocol](http://wiki.ethereum.org/index.php/Wire_Protocol) which can be used
|
||||
to hook in to the Ethereum network. [ethutil](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethutil) contains
|
||||
utility functions which are not Ethereum specific. The utility package
|
||||
contains the [patricia trie](http://wiki.ethereum.org/index.php/Patricia_Tree),
|
||||
[RLP Encoding](http://wiki.ethereum.org/index.php/RLP) and hex encoding
|
||||
helpers. The [ethdb](https://github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/tree/master/ethdb) package
|
||||
contains the LevelDB interface and memory DB interface.
