This library implements the Edge login system. It runs inside a client application, and provides zero-knowledge backup for cryptographic keys and other secrets via a familiar password-based login system.
See https://developer.airbitz.co/javascript/
To quickly get up and running with the UI for account creation, login, and management, use edge-login-ui-web for the web or edge-login-ui-rn for React Native.
Just use npm install --save edge-core-js to add this library to your project.
This library uses modern Javascript syntax features from ES 2018. While these work fine in recent browsers, React Native, and Node 10+, you might need to run this library through Babel if you care about older systems.
On the other hand, this library avoids modern run-time features from ES 2015 or later, so you don't need to provide polyfills. The only features we use from ES 2015 or later are:
Object.assignPromiseUint8Array
If you want to run in the browser, you must also have:
fetchlocalStorageWindow.crypto.getRandomNumbers
This library has React Native support. Starting at version 0.15.0, however, it achieves this support by running most of its logic inside a WebView component. This has several important advantages, including better performance, but it makes integration quite complicated. We are in the process of simplifying and documenting the necessary steps. In the mean time, please refer to the edge-react-gui project for an example of what this integration looks like.
Run yarn to download dependencies and build the library, then run yarn test to run the unit tests, and yarn flow to check for type errors.
All sources are in the JavaScript Standard Style + Prettier. We check files prior to each commit, so if you have formatting issues, you can run yarn format to fix them automatically.
If you use Visual Studio Code, consider installing the prettier-vscode extension. You'll want to enable the prettier.eslintIntegration configuration option for this to work seamlessly with Standard.
If you use Atom, you can use prettier-atom. You'll want to check the "ESLint Integration" setting for this to work seamlessly with Standard.
