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 🙏

xrpl.js

A JavaScript/TypeScript library for interacting with the XRP Ledger

NPM npm bundle size

This is the recommended library for integrating a JavaScript/TypeScript app with the XRP Ledger, especially if you intend to use advanced functionality such as IOUs, payment paths, the decentralized exchange, account settings, payment channels, escrows, multi-signing, and more.

➡️ Reference Documentation

See the full reference documentation for all classes, methods, and utilities.

Features

  1. Managing keys & creating test credentials (Wallet && Client.fundWallet())
  2. Submitting transactions to the XRP Ledger (Client.submit(...) & transaction types)
  3. Sending requests to observe the ledger (Client.request(...) using public API methods)
  4. Subscribing to changes in the ledger (Ex. ledger, transactions, & more...)
  5. Parsing ledger data into more convenient formats (xrpToDrops and rippleTimeToISOTime)

All of which works in Node.js (tested for v14+) & web browsers (tested for Chrome).

Quickstart

Requirements

  • Node.js v16 is recommended. We also support v14, v18 and v20. Other versions may work but are not frequently tested.

Installing xrpl.js

In an existing project (with package.json), install xrpl.js with:

$ npm install --save xrpl

Or with yarn:

$ yarn add xrpl

Example usage:

const xrpl = require("xrpl");
async function main() {
  const client = new xrpl.Client("wss://s.altnet.rippletest.net:51233");
  await client.connect();

  const response = await client.request({
    command: "account_info",
    account: "rPT1Sjq2YGrBMTttX4GZHjKu9dyfzbpAYe",
    ledger_index: "validated",
  });
  console.log(response);

  client.disconnect();
}
main();

For a more in-depth example, you can copy/forking this Code Sandbox template! https://codesandbox.io/s/xrpl-intro-pxgdjr?file=/src/App.js

It goes through:

  1. Creating a new test account
  2. Sending a payment transaction
  3. And sending requests to see your account balance!

Case by Case Setup Steps

If you're using xrpl.js with React or Deno, you'll need to do a couple extra steps to set it up:

Documentation

As you develop with xrpl.js, there's two sites you'll use extensively:

  1. xrpl.org is the primary source for:
  2. js.xrpl.org has the reference docs for this library

Mailing Lists

If you want to hear when we release new versions of xrpl.js, you can join our low-traffic mailing list (About 1 email per week):

If you're using the XRP Ledger in production, you should run a rippled server and subscribe to the ripple-server mailing list as well.

Asking for help

One of the best spots to ask for help is in the XRPL Developer Discord - There's a channel for xrpl.js where other community members can help you figure out how to accomplish your goals.

You are also welcome to create an issue here and we'll do our best to respond within 3 days.
