Bitcoin Token

BitcoinToken is a library that makes it easy to integrate Bitcoin into web applications. It consists of three tools

More information at www.bitcointoken.com and www.bitcointoken.com/docs.

Install

npm i bitcointoken

If you only want to use BitcoinWallet you are done. If you want to use BitcoinDb or BitcoinToken as well you need to install and run a non-standard server in a separate terminal window.

Install and run a non-standard server

We recommend to use Docker and Docker Compose to build and run the server using the commands below. If you do not use docker you can find instructions in the Github repo.

git clone https://github.com/BitcoinDB/bitcoin-non-standard-server.git
cd bitcoin-non-standard-server
docker-compose up

Run in Node

After installing BitcoinToken, create a file index.js and run it with node index.js.

// index.js
const { Wallet } = require('bitcointoken')

const wallet = new Wallet()
console.log(`address: ${wallet.getAddress()}`)

Run in the browser

After installing BitcoinToken, create files index.js and index.html.

// index.js
const Bitcoin = require('bitcointoken')

const wallet = new Bitcoin.Wallet()
document.body.innerHTML = `address: ${wallet.getAddress()}`
<!-- index.html -->
<html>
  <body>
    <script src="./bundle.js"></script>
  </body>
</html>

Install and run browserify, then open index.html in a web browser.

npm install -g browserify
browserify index.js > bundle.js
