Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

JS Stellar Base

Tests Code Climate Coverage Status Dependency Status

The stellar-base library is the lowest-level stellar helper library. It consists of classes to read, write, hash, and sign the xdr structures that are used in stellar-core. This is an implementation in JavaScript that can be used on either Node.js or web browsers.

Warning! Node version of this package is using sodium-native package, a native implementation of Ed25519 in Node.js, as an optional dependency. This means that if for any reason installation of this package fails, stellar-base will fallback to the much slower implementation contained in tweetnacl.

If you are using stellar-base in a browser you can ignore this. However, for production backend deployments you should definitely be using sodium-native. If sodium-native is successfully installed and working StellarBase.FastSigning variable will be equal true. Otherwise it will be false.

Quick start

Using yarn to include js-stellar-base in your own project:

yarn add stellar-base

For browsers, use Bower to install it. It exports a variable StellarBase. The example below assumes you have stellar-base.js relative to your html file.

<script src="stellar-base.js"></script>

<script>
  console.log(StellarBase);
</script>

Install

To use as a module in a Node.js project

  1. Install it using yarn:
yarn add stellar-base
  1. require/import it in your JavaScript:
var StellarBase = require("stellar-base");

To self host for use in the browser

  1. Install it using bower:
bower install stellar-base
  1. Include it in the browser:
<script src="./bower_components/stellar-base/stellar-base.js"></script>

<script>
  console.log(StellarBase);
</script>

If you don't want to use install Bower, you can copy built JS files from the bower-js-stellar-base repo.

To use the cdnjs hosted script in the browser

  1. Instruct the browser to fetch the library from cdnjs, a 3rd party service that hosts js libraries:
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/stellar-base/{version}/stellar-base.js"></script>

<script>
  console.log(StellarBase);
</script>

Note that this method relies using a third party to host the JS library. This may not be entirely secure.

Make sure that you are using the latest version number. They can be found on the releases page in Github.

To develop and test js-stellar-base itself

  1. Install Node 18.x

We support the oldest LTS release of Node, which is currently 18.x. Please likewise install and develop on Node 16 so you don't get surprised when your code works locally but breaks in CI.

If you work on several projects that use different Node versions, you might find helpful to install a NodeJS version manager:

  • https://github.com/creationix/nvm
  • https://github.com/wbyoung/avn
  • https://github.com/asdf-vm/asdf
  1. Install Yarn

This project uses Yarn to manages its dependencies. To install Yarn, follow the project instructions available at https://yarnpkg.com/en/docs/install.

  1. Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/bullioncapital/js-kinesis-base.git
  1. Install dependencies inside js-kinesis-base folder
cd js-kinesis-base
yarn
  1. Observe the project's code style

While you're making changes, make sure to regularly run the linter to catch any linting errors (in addition to making sure your text editor supports ESLint)

yarn lint

as well as fixing any formatting errors with

yarn fmt

If you're working on a file not in src, limit your code to Node 6.16 ES! See what's supported here: https://node.green/. (Our npm library must support earlier versions of Node, so the tests need to run on those versions.)

Updating XDR definitions

  1. Make sure you have Docker installed and running.
  2. make reset-xdr
