@nawab_kibria/bitcoin-lib

A comprehensive, production-ready Bitcoin wallet library with full support for all major Bitcoin address formats. Built with TypeScript and thoroughly tested.

🚀 Installation

npm install @nawab_kibria/bitcoin-lib

📚 What's Available

This library provides four main classes that work together to provide complete Bitcoin wallet functionality:

1. WalletManager - Complete Wallet Solution

2. BitcoinWallet - Address Generation & HD Wallet Management

3. TransactionBuilder - Transaction Creation & Signing

4. ElectrumClient - Blockchain Connectivity

🎯 WalletManager - All-in-One Interface

The WalletManager is the main class that provides all 9 core Bitcoin wallet features in a single, easy-to-use interface.

✅ Core Features

1. Generate Wallet - Create new wallets with mnemonic and extended keys
2. Export Wallet - Export extended keys and mnemonics
3. Import Wallet - Import from extended keys or mnemonics
4. Fetch Balance - Get balance for any address
5. Fetch UTXOs - Retrieve unspent transaction outputs
6. Create Transaction - Build and sign transactions
7. Estimate Fees - Real-time network fee estimation
8. Broadcast Transaction - Send transactions to the network
9. Transaction History - Get complete transaction history

🔧 Quick Start

import { WalletManager } from '@nawab_kibria/bitcoin-lib';
import * as bitcoin from 'bitcoinjs-lib';

// Configure wallet manager
const walletManager = new WalletManager({
    electrumServer: {
        host: 'localhost',
        port: 50001,
        ssl: false
    },
    network: bitcoin.networks.regtest,
    defaultAddressType: 'native_segwit'
});

// 1. Generate a new wallet
const wallet = walletManager.generateWallet();
console.log('Mnemonic:', wallet.mnemonic);

// 2. Connect to Electrum server  
await walletManager.connect();

// 3. Derive addresses
const address = walletManager.deriveAddress(0, 'native_segwit');
console.log('Address:', address.address);

// 4. Check balance
const balance = await walletManager.fetchBalance(address.address);
console.log('Balance:', balance.confirmed, 'sats');

// 5. Create and broadcast transaction
const tx = await walletManager.createTransaction(
    fromAddress, toAddress, amount, feeRate, privateKey, 'native_segwit'
);
const result = await walletManager.broadcastTransaction(tx.hex);
console.log('TXID:', result.txid);

🔑 BitcoinWallet - HD Wallet & Address Generation

The BitcoinWallet class handles hierarchical deterministic wallet creation and address generation for all Bitcoin address types.

✨ Address Types Supported

• Legacy (P2PKH) - 1... addresses using BIP44 (m/44'/0'/0'/0/x)
• SegWit (P2SH-P2WPKH) - 3... addresses using BIP49 (m/49'/0'/0'/0/x)
• Native SegWit (P2WPKH) - bc1q... addresses using BIP84 (m/84'/0'/0'/0/x)

🔧 Usage

import { BitcoinWallet } from '@nawab_kibria/bitcoin-lib';
import * as bitcoin from 'bitcoinjs-lib';

// Generate a new wallet
const wallet = BitcoinWallet.generate(bitcoin.networks.bitcoin);
console.log('Mnemonic:', wallet.mnemonic);

// Or create from existing mnemonic
const existingWallet = BitcoinWallet.fromMnemonic(
  'abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon abandon about',
  bitcoin.networks.bitcoin
);

// Generate addresses of all types
const legacyAddresses = wallet.generateLegacyAddresses(3);
const segwitAddresses = wallet.generateSegwitAddresses(3);
const nativeSegwitAddresses = wallet.generateNativeSegwitAddresses(3);

console.log('First Native SegWit Address:', nativeSegwitAddresses[0].address);
// Output: bc1qar0srrr7xfkvy5l643lydnw9re59gtzzwf5mdq
