iota.js

This library is functionally complete, but it is recommended to use iota.rs. The rust library will be more heavily maintained and is more performant.

Mono-repo containing client and supporting packages for the IOTA chrysalis network, implemented in TypeScript to strongly type the objects sent and received from the API.

Runs in both NodeJS and Browser environments.

Prerequisites

npm install @iota/iota.js

Example

const { SingleNodeClient } = require("@iota/iota.js");

async function run() {
    const client = new SingleNodeClient("https://chrysalis-nodes.iota.org");

    const info = await client.info();
    console.log("Node Info");
    console.log("\tName:", info.name);
    console.log("\tVersion:", info.version);
    console.log("\tIs Healthy:", info.isHealthy);
    console.log("\tNetwork Id:", info.networkId);
    console.log("\tLatest Milestone Index:", info.latestMilestoneIndex);
    console.log("\tConfirmed Milestone Index:", info.confirmedMilestoneIndex);
    console.log("\tPruning Index:", info.pruningIndex);
    console.log("\tFeatures:", info.features);
    console.log("\tMin PoW Score:", info.minPoWScore);
}

run()
    .then(() => console.log("Done"))
    .catch((err) => console.error(err));
