The decentralized nature of the Litecoin network allows for highly resilient litecoin infrastructure, and the developer community needs reliable, open-source tools to implement litecoin apps and services. ## Get Started ``` npm install litecore-lib ``` ``` bower install litecore-lib ``` ## Documentation The complete docs are hosted here: [litecore documentation](http://litecore.io/guide/). There's also a [litecore API reference](http://litecore.io/api/) available generated from the JSDocs of the project, where you'll find low-level details on each litecore utility. - [Read the Developer Guide](http://litecore.io/guide/) - [Read the API Reference](http://litecore.io/api/) To get community assistance and ask for help with implementation questions, please use our [community forums](https://forum.litecore.io/). ## Examples * [Generate a random address](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/docs/examples.md#generate-a-random-address) * [Generate a address from a SHA256 hash](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/docs/examples.md#generate-a-address-from-a-sha256-hash) * [Import an address via WIF](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/docs/examples.md#import-an-address-via-wif) * [Create a Transaction](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/docs/examples.md#create-a-transaction) * [Sign a Bitcoin message](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/docs/examples.md#sign-a-bitcoin-message) * [Verify a Bitcoin message](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/docs/examples.md#verify-a-bitcoin-message) * [Create an OP RETURN transaction](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/docs/examples.md#create-an-op-return-transaction) * [Create a 2-of-3 multisig P2SH address](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/docs/examples.md#create-a-2-of-3-multisig-p2sh-address) * [Spend from a 2-of-2 multisig P2SH address](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/docs/examples.md#spend-from-a-2-of-2-multisig-p2sh-address) ## Security We're using Litecore in production, as are [many others](http://litecore.io#projects), but please use common sense when doing anything related to finances! We take no responsibility for your implementation decisions. If you find a security issue, please email security@bitpay.com. ## Contributing Please send pull requests for bug fixes, code optimization, and ideas for improvement. For more information on how to contribute, please refer to our [CONTRIBUTING](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md) file. ## Building the Browser Bundle To build a litecore-lib full bundle for the browser: ```sh gulp browser ``` This will generate files named `litecore-lib.js` and `litecore-lib.min.js`. You can also use our pre-generated files, provided for each release along with a PGP signature by one of the project's maintainers. To get them, checkout a release commit (for example, https://github.com/bitpay/bitcore-lib/commit/e33b6e3ba6a1e5830a079e02d949fce69ea33546 for v0.12.6). To verify signatures, use the following PGP keys: - @braydonf: https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x9BBF07CAC07A276D `D909 EFE6 70B5 F6CC 89A3 607A 9BBF 07CA C07A 276D` - @gabegattis: https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x441430987182732C `F3EA 8E28 29B4 EC93 88CB B0AA 4414 3098 7182 732C` - @kleetus: https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x33195D27EF6BDB7F `F8B0 891C C459 C197 65C2 5043 3319 5D27 EF6B DB7F` - @matiu: https://pgp.mit.edu/pks/lookup?op=get&search=0x9EDE6DE4DE531FAC `25CE ED88 A1B1 0CD1 12CD 4121 9EDE 6DE4 DE53 1FAC` ## Development & Tests ```sh git clone https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib cd litecore-lib npm install ``` Run all the tests: ```sh gulp test ``` You can also run just the Node.js tests with `gulp test:node`, just the browser tests with `gulp test:browser` or create a test coverage report (you can open `coverage/lcov-report/index.html` to visualize it) with `gulp coverage`. ## License Code released under [the MIT license](https://github.com/litecoin-project/litecore-lib/blob/master/LICENSE).
