JS library for building browser apps & NodeJS services that interact with Loom DAppChains.

Install

NodeJS

# NPM
npm install loom-js
# Yarn
yarn add loom-js

Browser

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/dist/loom.umd.js"></script>

Development

# build for Node
yarn build
# build for Browser
yarn build:browser
# build for Node while targeting ES2017 (more readable than ES5)
yarn build:dev
# run unit tests on Node & Browser
yarn test
# auto-format source files
yarn format
# run unit tests in Node
yarn test:node
# run unit tests in Electon
yarn test:browser
# run e2e test in Node (local DAppChain node must be running first)
yarn e2e:node
# run e2e test in Electron (local DAppChain node must be running first)
yarn e2e:browser

The e2e test environment can be configured by changing .env.test (see .env.test.example for default values).

Debugging

To debug loom-js while using it another project:

  1. Clone the Git repo from https://github.com/loomnetwork/loom-js
  2. Inside the loom-js repo run:
    yarn link
    yarn build:dev
  3. In your project repo run yarn link loom-js.
  4. Debug your project normally.

yarn build:dev will compile the TypeScript source to target ES2017, which requires a lot less transformation of async/await constructs than the ES5 code released on NPM.

Regenerating Protobufs

Whenever you change src/proto/loom.proto, or src/tests/tests.proto you will need to regenerate the corresponding *_pb.js by running:

yarn proto

The shell must be able to locate the protoc binary, which can be obtained from https://github.com/google/protobuf/releases
