Practical overview
When it fits
Use it when a Rust or JavaScript/TypeScript application needs Bitcoin SV cryptographic or transaction-and-script operations through a Rust/WebAssembly library.
Who it is for
- Rust developers building Bitcoin SV software.
- JavaScript and TypeScript developers integrating Bitcoin SV operations into Node.js or web projects.
- Deno developers who want to import and initialize the WebAssembly module.
Documented uses
- Build, serialize and deserialize Bitcoin SV transactions.
- Serialize and deserialize scripts and match script templates.
- Derive extended private keys and child keys, and produce P2PKH addresses.
- Use listed hashing, key-derivation, encryption, ECDSA and sighash functions.
Requirements & limits
- The README documents separate packages for Node.js, web and webpack, as well as Rust and Deno entry points.
- The Node.js installation instructions specify version 14.6 or later.
- The repository lists an MIT license.
- The README identifies fuller inline function and structure documentation as planned work.
Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.
Initialize the Deno module
Import and initialize the Bsv Wasm module in Deno.
Before you start
- A Deno project
- A version value to replace
{VERSION}in the documented import URL
Steps
Import
initandTransactionfromhttps://deno.land/x/bsv_wasm@{VERSION}/bsv_wasm.js.Call
await init().
Expected outcome
The example initializes the module and imports the `Transaction` binding.
Guide limitations
- The documented snippet stops at module initialization and does not show transaction construction or execution.
