Geth: go-ethereum/ethclient
===========================

Most developers think of Geth as an application you would run on a Desktop or
Server to connect to the Ethereum Blockchain (and indeed Rivet uses Geth to do
just that), but if you're developing in Golang it's also a library you can use
to connect to an Ethereum client hosted elsewhere.

The basics of using the go-ethereum/ethclient are documented on GoDoc. You can
connect to Rviet with the client library using


.. code-block:: go

  import "github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/ethclient"
  conn, err := ethclient.Dial("https://YourApiKey.eth.rpc.rivet.cloud/")


Then use your connection as documented in `GoDoc <https://godoc.org/github.com/ethereum/go-ethereum/ethclient>`_.
