Installation

Direct <script> include via CDN

In case you're not using any JS bundling/compilation technique, the SDK can also be loaded with the traditional <script> tag, as follows:

Latest SDK version

<script src="https://unpkg.com/@aeternity/aepp-sdk/dist/aepp-sdk.browser-script.js"></script>

Specific SDK version

<script src="https://unpkg.com/@aeternity/aepp-sdk@VERSION/dist/aepp-sdk.browser-script.js"></script>

...where VERSION is the version number of the SDK you want to use (eg. 8.1.0).

Browser <script> tag

The bundle will assign the SDK to a global variable called Ae that makes all functionalities of the SDK accessible.

Usage:

<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8">
</head>
<body>
  <!-- include latest SDK version -->
  <script src="https://unpkg.com/@aeternity/aepp-sdk/dist/aepp-sdk.browser-script.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript">
    const node = new Ae.Node('https://testnet.aeternity.io')
    const aeSdk = new Ae.AeSdk({
      nodes: [{ name: 'testnet', instance: node }]
    })
    aeSdk.height().then(height => {
      console.log("Current Block Height:" + height)
    })
  </script>
</body>
</html>
