A lightweight BitSong Wallet implementation. Forked from ethereumjs-wallet

It is complemented by the following packages:

Motivations are:

  • be lightweight
  • work in a browser
  • support BIP39 mnemonic phrases
  • support BIP32 HD keys

Features not supported:

  • signing transactions
  • managing storage (neither in node.js or the browser)
  • conversion between various wallet formats

Wallet API

Construction methods:

generateWallet()

Generates wallet from a random BIP39 mnemonic phrase (uses bip39.generateMnemonic() under the hood).

import {generateWallet} from 'bitsong-js-wallet';
const wallet = generateWallet();

walletFromMnemonic(mnemonic)

Create a wallet instance based on BIP39 12 words mnemonic phrase

import {walletFromMnemonic} from 'bitsong-js-wallet';
const wallet = walletFromMnemonic('surround tape away million into program organ tonight write prefer inform cool');

walletFromPrivateKey(privateKey)

Create a wallet instance based on a raw private key

import {walletFromPrivateKey} from 'bitsong-js-wallet';
import {Buffer} from 'safe-buffer';
const privateKeyBuffer = Buffer.from('ef2af2385681c490bc473c2f7e6097fc1a38e6f67b44b81a3350a6583aadd144', 'hex')
const wallet = walletFromPrivateKey(privateKeyBuffer);

walletFromExtendedPrivateKey(extendedPrivateKeyString)

Create an instance based on a BIP32 extended private key (xprv)

import {walletFromExtendedPrivateKey} from 'bitsong-js-wallet';
const wallet = walletFromExtendedPrivateKey('xprv9s21ZrQH143K4KqQx9Zrf1eN8EaPQVFxM2Ast8mdHn7GKiDWzNEyNdduJhWXToy8MpkGcKjxeFWd8oBSvsz4PCYamxR7TX49pSpp3bmHVAY');

Wallet instance methods:

.getAddress()

Return the address: 20 bytes length Buffer or Uint8Array

wallet.getAddress();
// [88,108,62,182,16,84,7,36,101,31,244,29,32,158,20,41,238,62,68,154]

.getAddressString()

Return the BitSong-style address

wallet.getAddress();
// 'Mx586c3eb610540724651ff41d209e1429ee3e449a'

.getMnemonic()

Return the mnemonic phrase: 12 words string. Note: Only works with instance created/generated from mnemonic, otherwise it will throw an error.

wallet.getMnemonic();
// 'surround tape away million into program organ tonight write prefer inform cool'

.getPrivateKey()

Return the private key: 32 bytes length Buffer or Uint8Array

wallet.getPrivateKey();
// [239,42,242,56,86,129,196,144,188,71,60,47,126,96,151,252,26,56,230,246,123,68,184,26,51,80,166,88,58,173,209,68]

.getPrivateKeyString()

Return the private key string of 64 hex characters

wallet.getPrivateKeyString();
// 'ef2af2385681c490bc473c2f7e6097fc1a38e6f67b44b81a3350a6583aadd144'

.getPublicKey()

Return the uncompressed Ethereum-style public key: 64 bytes length Buffer or Uint8Array

wallet.getPublicKey();
// [251,82,201,189,133,251,174,27,6,6,18,34,12,222,116,254,99,169,65,249,135,81,170,13,35,99,50,6,231,95,48,69,41,47,96,75,240,242,9,77,23,168,173,59,137,223,128,80,144,69,34,91,145,21,255,133,112,189,68,8,42,245,210,116]

.getPublicKeyString()

Return the BitSong-style public key string

wallet.getPublicKeyString();
// 'Mpfb52c9bd85fbae1b060612220cde74fe63a941f98751aa0d23633206e75f3045'

Mnemonic

generateMnemonic()

Generate random 12 words mnemonic phrase. Exposed bip39.generateMnemonic().

import {generateMnemonic} from 'bitsong-js-wallet';
const mnemonic = generateMnemonic();
// 'surround tape away million into program organ tonight write prefer inform cool'

isValidMnemonic(mnemonic)

Check that given mnemonic is valid, returns boolean, uses bip39.validateMnemonic() under the hood.

import {isValidMnemonic} from 'bitsong-js-wallet';
const isValid = isValidMnemonic('surround tape away million into program organ tonight write prefer inform cool');
// true
