Welcome to the bitcoinjs-server wiki!

User Guide

Most people will be interested in bitcoinjs-server's "daemon", a drop-in replacement for bitcoind.

Our daemon however does not come with an integrated wallet for security reasons. It puts an extra step between hackers on the network and your users' coins.

Please see also the Modules section below.

Developer Guide

bitcoinjs-server can also serve as a Bitcoin library you can build right into your Bitcoin-related server. This gives you almost unlimited control and is intended for building very advanced applications or rapidly prototyping Bitcoin software.

  • Library Examples - How to run the included library examples
  • Events - Subscribe to these events to get real-time data from the Bitcoin network
  • Storage - You can also pull data directly from storage
  • Transaction Utility Functions - How to create addresses, send coins, and check balances server-side

Modules

The core bitcoinjs-server is meant to be lean and fast, but it ships with modules to enable more advanced functionality.

  • Exit API - Public API for powering lightweight clients and other Bitcoin webapps
