MOAC JavaScript API version 0.1.2.

Modified from ethereum:web3.js 0.20.0

var Chain3 = require('chain3');

var chain3 = new Chain3();

This is the MOAC compatible JavaScript API which implements the Generic JSON RPC spec as described in the Chain3.md. It's available on npm as a node module, for bower and component as an embeddable js and as a meteor.js package.

Some of the methods require running a local MOAC node to use this library.

Installation

Node.js

npm install chain3

As Browser module

Bower

bower install chain3

Component

component install moac/chain3.js

Include chain3.min.js in your html file. (not required for the meteor package)

Usage

Use the chain3 object directly from global namespace:

console.log(chain3); // {mc: .., db: ..., net: ...} // it's here!

Set a provider (HttpProvider)

if (typeof chain3 !== 'undefined') {
  chain3 = new Chain3(chain3.currentProvider);
} else {
  // set the provider you want from Chain3.providers
  chain3 = new Chain3(new Chain3.providers.HttpProvider("http://localhost:8545"));
}

Set a provider (HttpProvider using HTTP Basic Authentication)

chain3.setProvider(new chain3.providers.HttpProvider('http://host.url', 0, BasicAuthUsername, BasicAuthPassword));

There you go, now you can use it:

var coinbase = chain3.mc.coinbase;
var balance = chain3.mc.getBalance(coinbase);
