ATBCoinJS (atbcoinjs-lib)

The pure JavaScript ATBCoin library for node.js and browsers. Used by over a million wallet users and the backbone for almost all ATBCoin web wallets in production today.

Installation

npm install atbcoinjs-lib

Setup

Node.js

var atbcoin = require('atbcoinjs-lib')

Browser

If you're familiar with how to use browserify, ignore this and proceed normally. These steps are advisory only, and may not be necessary for your application.

Browserify is assumed to be installed for these steps.

From your repository, create an index.js file

module.exports = {
  base58: require('bs58'),
  atbcoin: require('atbcoinjs-lib'),
  ecurve: require('ecurve'),
  BigInteger: require('bigi')
}

Install each of the above packages locally

npm install bs58 atbcoinjs-lib ecurve bigi

After installation, use browserify to compile index.js for use in the browser:

    $ browserify index.js --standalone foo > app.js

You will now be able to use <script src="app.js" /> in your browser, with each of the above exports accessible via the global foo object (or whatever you chose for the --standalone parameter above).

NOTE: See our package.json for the currently supported version of browserify used by this repository.

NOTE: When uglifying the javascript, you must exclude the following variable names from being mangled: Array, BigInteger, Boolean, ECPair, Function, Number, Point and Script. This is because of the function-name-duck-typing used in typeforce. Example:

uglifyjs ... --mangle --reserved 'Array,BigInteger,Boolean,ECPair,Function,Number,Point'

NOTE: If you expect this library to run on an iOS 10 device, ensure that you are using buffer@5.0.5 or greater.

Typescript or VSCode users

Type declarations for Typescript are available for version ^3.0.0 of the library.

npm install @types/atbcoinjs-lib

You can now use atbcoinjs-lib as a typescript compliant library.

import { HDNode, Transaction } from 'atbcoinjs-lib'

For VSCode (and other editors), users are advised to install the type declarations, as Intellisense uses that information to help you code (autocompletion, static analysis).
