dash-platform-sdk v1.3.3

Javascript SDK for Dash Platform network that let you interact with the chain.

Does not support Core chain by design

It can be used to query network, create, sign and broadcast the transactions in any Javascript environment. It works both in Node.js, Browsers, and with modern frontend frameworks

SDK uses a pre-defined set of seed nodes (public RPC) at the start, and then tries to switch to the latest list of nodes from the network

Currently, only minimal features are included, such as document querying and creation of the documents, and all necessary related functions to do that There is no input validation and error handling implemented yet relying on a happy path, this is going to be fixed in next versions

Features

• Cryptographic proofs for DAPI (GRPC) queries
• Create, Sign, and Broadcast Dash Platform (Dash Evolution) transactions
• Rich API compatible with ESNext
• Isomorphic library (works in Web and Node.js environments)
• Autogenerated documentation

Browser Support

The SDK is isomorphic and works in both Node.js and web browsers without requiring polyfills. When using in browsers, make sure to include the library from CDN or bundle it with your application.

Quickstart

Install

$ npm install dash-platform-sdk

Alternatively, you could simply include the library from the CDN:

https://unpkg.com/dash-platform-sdk/dist/main.js

Import

To use the SDK, simply import the library and instantiate an instance of DashPlatformSDK:

// ES6 / EcmaScript
import {DashPlatformSDK} from 'dash-platform-sdk'

// CommonJS
const {DashPlatformSDK} = require('dash-platform-sdk')

const sdk = new DashPlatformSDK({network: 'testnet'})

Or load it straight from the web page:

<script src="https://unpkg.com/dash-platform-sdk/bundle.min.js"></script>
<script>
    const {DashPlatformSDK} = window.DashPlatformSDK
    const sdk = new DashPlatformSDK.DashPlatformSDK({network: 'testnet'})
</script>

Now you're ready to make queries in the network and push your data!

See docs/Quickstart.md for basic usage examples (register data contract, push/update/delete documents).

API Documentation

The full autogenerated typedoc reference is available at https://pshenmic.github.io/dash-platform-sdk/index.html

Error Handling

The SDK currently relies on a happy path and doesn't include comprehensive error handling. This will be improved in future versions. For now, wrap SDK calls in try-catch blocks:

try {
  const identity = await sdk.identities.getIdentityByIdentifier('invalid-id')
} catch (error) {
  console.error('Failed to fetch identity:', error)
}
