npm npm license

Lead Maintainer: Lúcio Rubens

TSARK is a library client designed to facilitate how you interact with the ARK blockchain.

Why TypeScript

  • TypeScript is is a superset of JavaScript which mainly offers optional static typing, classes, and interfaces. The learning curve is not that steep.
  • Types are optional, TSARK compiles into ES5 so you can work with both, ECMAScript or TypeScript.
  • A better development experience, including auto-complete and fully documented.

Documentation

API documentation is hosted on github pages, and is generated from TypeDoc.

Installation

TSARK is avaliable from npm.

yarn add ark-ts

or

npm i ark-ts --save

Usage

For the best TypeScript experience, you should either use Visual Studio Code, or a plug-in for your favorite text editor.

Basic Examples

Get delegate list from Devnet network.

import { Client, Network, NetworkType } from 'ark-ts';

const devnet = Network.getDefault(NetworkType.Devnet);
const client = new Client(devnet);

client.delegate.list().subscribe((list) => {
  console.log(list);
});

Get address from passphrase.

import { PrivateKey } from 'ark-ts/core';

// if no specify a second param, default is mainnet
const key = PrivateKey.fromSeed('my secret passphrase');
console.log(key.getPublicKey().getAddress()); // AaWU6X3pGdtSCK3s9weo9tjth64F3hixgT
