hxbweb v2.3.3

What is HxbWeb?

HxbWeb aims to deliver a unified, seamless development experience influenced by Ethereum's Web3 implementation. We have taken the core ideas and expanded upon it to unlock the functionality of HXB's unique feature set along with offering new tools for integrating DApps in the browser, Node.js and IoT devices.

Compatibility

• Version built for Node.js v6 and above
• Version built for browsers with more than 0.25% market share

You can access either version specifically from the dist folder.

HxbWeb is also compatible with frontend frameworks such as:

• Angular
• React
• Vue.

You can also ship HxbWeb in a Chrome extension.

Installation

Node.js

npm install hxbweb

or

yarn add hxbweb

Browser

First, don't use the release section of this repo, it has not updated in a long time.

Then easiest way to use HxbWeb in a browser is to install it as above and copy the dist file to your working folder. For example:

cp node_modules/hxbweb/dist/HxbWeb.js ./js/hxbweb.js

so that you can call it in your HTML page as

<script src="./js/hxbweb.js"><script>

Creating an Instance

First off, in your javascript file, define HxbWeb:

const HxbWeb = require('hxbweb')

The easiest way to instantiate hxbWeb is to run

const hxbWeb = new HxbWeb({
    fullHost: 'http://<ip:port>',
    privateKey: '...'
})

but you can continue to use the old way:

const hxbWeb = new HxbWeb(fullNode, solidityNode, eventServer, privateKey)

const hxbWeb = new HxbWeb({
    fullNode: 'http://<ip:port>',
    solidityNode: 'http://<ip:port>',
    eventServer: 'http://<ip:port>',
    privateKey: '...'
  }
)

similar to the old approach
