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, for bower and component as an embeddable js and as a meteor.js package.

You need to run a local Ethereum node to use this library.

Meteor.js

As Browser module

Bower

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

Usage

Use the web3 object directly from global namespace:

ole.log(web3); // {eth: .., shh: ...} // it's here!

Set a provider (HttpProvider)

.setProvider(new web3.providers.HttpProvider('http://localhost:8545'));

There you go, now you can use it:

coinbase = web3.eth.coinbase;
balance = web3.eth.getBalance(coinbase);
