deriveaddresses

deriveaddresses "descriptor" ( range )

Derives one or more addresses corresponding to an output descriptor.

Examples of output descriptors are:

pkh(pubkey) P2PKH outputs for the given pubkey wpkh(<pubkey>) Native segwit P2PKH outputs for the given pubkey sh(multi(<n>,<pubkey>,<pubkey>,…)) P2SH-multisig outputs for the given threshold and pubkeys raw(<hex script>) Outputs whose scriptPubKey equals the specified hex scripts

In the above, <pubkey> either refers to a fixed public key in hexadecimal notation, or to an xpub/xprv optionally followed by one or more path elements separated by "/", where "h" represents a hardened child key.

For more information on output descriptors, see the documentation in the doc/descriptors.md file.

Argument #1 - descriptor​

Type: string, required

The descriptor.

Argument #2 - range​

Type: numeric or array, optional

If a ranged descriptor is used, this specifies the end or the range (in begin, end notation) to derive.

Result​

[           (json array)
  "str",    (string) the derived addresses
  ...
]

Example usage (with RPC call)​
