The xdb-digitalbits-base library is the lowest-level digitalbits helper library. It consists of classes to read, write, hash, and sign the xdr structures that are used in digitalbits-core. This is an implementation in JavaScript that can be used on either Node.js or web browsers.
Warning! Node version of this package is using
sodium-native
package, a native implementation of Ed25519 in Node.js, as an optional dependency. This means that if for any reason installation of this package fails,xdb-digitalbits-base
will fallback to the much slower implementation contained intweetnacl
.If you are using
xdb-digitalbits-base
in a browser you can ignore this. However, for production backend deployments you should definitely be usingsodium-native
. Ifsodium-native
is successfully installed and workingDigitalBitsBase.FastSigning
variable will be equaltrue
. Otherwise it will befalse
.
