coinblesk-frontend-bitcoinjs

The Bitcoin.JS wrapper project for coinblesk-frontend

The Bitcoin.JS library does currently (v3.1.1) not fully support the Bitcoin BIP-65 OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY. To approach that and to separate the building process of the Bitcoin.JS library from the actual Coinblesk project, this Bitcoin.JS wrapper was created.

To support updates in an easy manner, there are two scripts provided.

Development

There are two folders available: /src and /dist. The source folder contains two complete Bitcoin.JS scripts. One should be the original script (src/bitcoinjs.original.js and the other one is a copy of it, which was then modified to approach BIP-65. This allows for an easy comparison between the files. When there is an update, you can easily move the necessary code.

Update

• Update the Bitcoin.JS version in the package.json and run yarn install

• Run the following script:

  bash script.load-and-combine.sh
  

• This script replaces both the bitcoinjs.original.js and the bitcoinjs.modified.js files in /src with the newest version of Bitcoin.JS

• Modify the bitcoinjs.modified.js to approach the changes of BIP-65.

• Run the following script:

  bash script.release.sh
  

• This script creates a minified version of the bitcoinjs.modified.js in the /dist folder.

• Push those changes to GitHub

• Make sure, that coinblesk-frontend takes the newest version of this dependency (there are no versions, but only a link to GitHub). It's probably the easiest to just delete this folder in the node_modules of coinblesk-frontend – or maybe even the full node_modules folder. A simple yarn install won't be enough.
