NPM Package Build Status js-standard-style Dependency status

Merkle proof for a Bitcoin transaction.

Install

npm install bitcoin-proof

API


#####getProof(String[] txIds, Number txIndex) -> {txId: String, txIndex: Number, sibling: String[]}

Computes the Merkle proof of a given transaction.

  • txIds - array of transaction hashes (as hex string)
  • txIndex - index of which transaction to compute a Merkle proof for

Returns an object with the following keys:

  • txId - transaction hash that the Merkle proof is computed for
  • txIndex - index of txId among txIds
  • sibling - sibling hashes of txId which comprise the Merkle proof

#####getTxMerkle({txId: String, txIndex: Number, sibling: String[]}) -> String

Computes the Merkle root of a given proof.

  • proof - an object of the form returned by getProof

Returns the Merkle root as a hex string.


#####getMerkleRoot(String[] txIds) -> String

Computes the Merkle root of a set of transactions.

  • txIds - array of transaction hashes (as hex string)

Returns the Merkle root as a hex string.

Usage

var btcProof = require('bitcoin-proof');

var BLOCK_100K_TRANSACTIONS = [
