It seems you are using the deprecated psi.js library. See here for how to install or build the new PSI library for JS/TS.

Thank you for your response! I am a bit confused! After running in cmd the commands " npm install @openmined/psi.js " and " import PSI from '@openmined/psi.js' ", what is the next step? Is there a way to run the program with commands in cmd or i have to buid a new library? what type o files do i have to create? .ts?and how many? should i put all of them in a new folder?

Sorry for the long message and the number questions!

We currently don't have any commands / binaries, since this library is meant to be used as part of other projects, not standalone. You can find an example here, which runs both the client and the server. If you want to actually run PSI with two different parties, you'll have to split it up into a client and a server, and also handle the network connection. I'm not sure what your use case is, so it's hard to say something more specific here.

I want to use a two-party psi tool, in order to find the intersection of the elements of the two lists. In order to use the example you mentioned, is it enough to create 2 .ts files (client and server) and put each part of the code inside ?

After you run npm install @openmined/psi.js you can use the library in your JS/TS applications.

By default, when you define an import import PSI from '@openmined/psi.js' it will load both client and server libraries for you to run the protocol in a single application.

In a real-world application, you would need to have two separate applications to communicate with each other. How you implement the communication between services is up to you. This library provides a means to serialize objects that can be sent across many means of communication, but any network transport is not a part of the library.
