@connoropolous/holochain-client v0.6.0

Holochain Client - JavaScript

A JavaScript client for the Holochain Conductor API (works with browsers as well as Nodejs).

Holochain's Conductor API is under active development. This client package tracks that development fairly closely but sometimes gets behind.

Installation

To install from NPM, run

npm install --save-exact @holochain/client

This code is still under alpha development and npm releases are pre-releases with dev tags meaning they will not use full semantic versioning, and you may wish to lock to an exact version of the library for that reason, as shown in the above command.

Sample usage

Use AdminWebsocket

  const admin = await AdminWebsocket.connect(`ws://localhost:8000`, TIMEOUT)
  await admin.generateAgentPubKey()

Use AppWebsocket

  const signalCb = (signal: AppSignal) => {
    // impl...
    resolve()
  }

  const TIMEOUT = 12000
  // default timeout is set to 12000
  const client = await AppWebsocket.connect(`ws://localhost:${appPort}`, 12000, signalCb)

  // default timeout set here (30000) will overwrite the defaultTimeout(12000) set above
  await client.callZome({
   cap: null,
   cell_id,
   zome_name: "test_zome",
   fn_name: 'test_emitter_fn',
   provenance: fakeAgentPubKey('TODO'),
   payload: null,
  }, 30000)
