Self TypeScript SDK
The official Self SDK for TypeScript.
This SDK provides a toolset to interact with the Self network from your TypeScript code.
Installation
$ npm install self-sdk
Usage
Register Application
Before the SDK can be used you must first register an application on the Self Developer Portal. Once registered, the portal will generate credentials for the application that the SDK will use to authenticate against the Self network.
Self provides two isolated networks:
Developer Portal (production network) - Suitable for production services
Developer Portal (sandbox network) - Suitable for testing and experimentation
Register your application using one of the links above (further information).
Examples
Client Setup
async function main() {
const selfsdk = require("self-sdk");
const client = await selfsdk.build(
"<application-id>",
"<application-secret-key>",
"random-secret-string",
"/data",
{ env: "sandbox" }, // optional (defaults to production)
);
await client.start()
}
main();
Additionally, you can import the transpiled modules from dist/lib
in case you have a modular library:
import authentication from "self-sdk/authentication"
Identity
The identity service provides functionality for looking up identities, devices and public keys.
Get an identity:
let identity = await client.identity().get("<self-id>")
Facts
The fact service can be used to ask for specific attested facts from an identity.
Request a fact:
let phoneNumber = await client.facts().request("<self-id>", [{ fact: "unverified_phone_number" }])
Authentication
The authentication service can be used to send an authentication challenge to a users device. The response the user sends will be signed by their identity and can be validated.
let resp = await client.authentication().request("<self-id>")
