Atomicals Javascript Library

Use yarn package manager instead of npm. Instructions below (They are: npm install -g yarn)

In the latest version of the CLI processing library the option switches (the settings starting with --) are not processed correctly and it would lead to too small of a fee being set and result in your transactions not being mined.

Workaround: Use yarn instead of npm

0. Environment File (.env)

The environment file comes with defaults (.env.example), but it is highly recommended to install and operate your own ElectrumX server. Web browser communication is possible through the wss (secure websockets) interface of ElectrumX.

ELECTRUMX_PROXY_BASE_URL=https://ep.your-atomicals-electrumx-host/proxy

// Optional
WALLET_PATH=./wallets
WALLET_FILE=wallet.json

// The number of concurrent processes to be used. This should not exceed the number of CPU cores available. If not set, the default behavior is to use all available CPU cores minus one.
CONCURRENCY=4

1. Wallet Setup

The purpose of the wallet is to create p2tr (pay-to-taproot) spend scripts and to receive change from the transactions made for the various operations. Do not put more funds than you can afford to lose, as this is still beta!

To initialize a new wallet.json file that will store your address for receiving change use the wallet-init command. Alternatively, you may populate the wallet.json manually, ensuring that the address at m/44'/0'/0'/0/0 equals the address and the derivePath is set correctly.

Configure the path in the environment .env file to point to your wallet file. defaults to ./wallet.json

Default:

WALLET_PATH=.
WALLET_FILE=wallet.json

Update to wallets/ directory:

WALLET_PATH=./wallets
WALLET_FILE=wallet.json

Create the wallet:

yarn cli wallet-init

>>>
