Ethereum JavaScript API

This is the Ethereum compatible JavaScript API which implements the Generic JSON RPC spec. It's available on npm as a node module and also for bower and component as an embeddable js

Installation

Node.js

npm install ethereum.js

For browser

Bower

bower install ethereum.js

Component

component install ethereum/ethereum.js

Include ethereum.min.js in your html file.
Include bignumber.js

Usage

Require the library:

var web3 = require('web3');

Set a provider (QtProvider, WebSocketProvider, HttpRpcProvider)

var web3.setProvider(new web3.providers.WebSocketProvider('ws://localhost:40404/eth'));

There you go, now you can use it:

var coinbase = web3.eth.coinbase;
var balance = web3.eth.balanceAt(coinbase);

For another example see example/index.html.
