    BSV SDK

    BSV BLOCKCHAIN | Software Development Kit for JavaScript and TypeScript

    Welcome to the BSV Blockchain Libraries Project, the comprehensive TypeScript SDK designed to provide an updated and unified layer for developing scalable applications on the BSV Blockchain. This SDK addresses the limitations of previous tools by offering a fresh, peer-to-peer approach, adhering to SPV, and ensuring privacy and scalability.

    Objective

    The BSV Blockchain Libraries Project aims to structure and maintain a middleware layer of the BSV Blockchain technology stack. By facilitating the development and maintenance of core libraries, it serves as an essential toolkit for developers looking to build on the BSV Blockchain.

    Getting Started

    Installation

    To install the SDK, run:

    npm install @bsv/sdk

    Basic Usage

    Here's a simple example of using the SDK to create and sign a transaction:

    import { PrivateKey, P2PKH, Transaction, ARC } from '@bsv/sdk'
    
    const privKey = PrivateKey.fromWif('L5EY1SbTvvPNSdCYQe1EJHfXCBBT4PmnF6CDbzCm9iifZptUvDGB')
    
    const sourceTransaction = Transaction.fromHex('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')
    
    const version = 1
    const input = {
      sourceTransaction,
      sourceOutputIndex: 0,
      unlockingScriptTemplate: new P2PKH().unlock(privKey),
    }
    const output = {
      lockingScript: new P2PKH().lock(privKey.toAddress()),
      change: true
    }
    
    const tx = new Transaction(version, [input], [output])
    await tx.fee()
    await tx.sign()
    
    await tx.broadcast()

    Features & Deliverables

    • Sound Cryptographic Primitives: Secure key management, signature computations, and encryption protocols.

    • Script Level Constructs: Network-compliant script interpreter with support for custom scripts and serialization formats.

    • Transaction Construction and Signing: Comprehensive transaction builder API, ensuring versatile and secure transaction creation.

    • Transaction Broadcast Management: Mechanisms to send transactions to both miners and overlays, ensuring extensibility and future-proofing.

    • Merkle Proof Verification: Tools for representing and verifying merkle proofs, adhering to various serialization standards.

    • Serializable SPV Structures: Structures and interfaces for full SPV verification.

    • Secure Encryption and Signed Messages: Enhanced mechanisms for encryption and digital signatures, replacing outdated methods.

    Documentation

    The Docs are available here on Github pages.
    Example code is available over on our gitbook.

    The SDK is richly documented with code-level annotations. This should show up well within editors like VSCode.
