## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
See also: [RippleAPI Beginners Guide](https://xrpl.org/get-started-with-rippleapi-for-javascript.html)
|
|
|
|
### Requirements
|
|
|
|
+ **[Node v10](https://nodejs.org/)** is recommended. Other versions may work but are not frequently tested.
|
|
+ **[Yarn](https://yarnpkg.com/)** is recommended. `npm` may work but we use `yarn.lock`.
|
|
|
|
### Install
|
|
|
|
In an existing project (with `package.json`), install `ripple-lib`:
|
|
```
|
|
$ yarn add ripple-lib
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then see the [documentation](https://github.com/ripple/ripple-lib/blob/develop/docs/index.md) and [code samples](https://github.com/ripple/ripple-lib/tree/develop/docs/samples).
|

### Mailing Lists
|
|
|
|
We have a low-traffic mailing list for announcements of new ripple-lib releases. (About 1 email per week)
|
|
|
|
+ [Subscribe to ripple-lib-announce](https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/ripple-lib-announce)
|
|
|
|
If you're using the XRP Ledger in production, you should run a [rippled server](https://github.com/ripple/rippled) and subscribe to the ripple-server mailing list as well.

## Development
|
|
|
|
To build the library for Node.js:
|
|
```
|
|
$ yarn compile
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The TypeScript compiler will [output](./tsconfig.json#L7) the resulting JS files in `./dist/npm/`.
|
|
|
|
To build the library for the browser:
|
|
```
|
|
$ yarn build
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Gulp will [output](./Gulpfile.js) the resulting JS files in `./build/`.
|
|
|
|
For details, see the `scripts` in `package.json`.
|
|
|
|
## Running Tests
|
|
|
|
1. Clone the repository
|
|
2. `cd` into the repository and install dependencies with `yarn install`
|
|
3. `yarn test`
|
|
|
|
Also, run `yarn lint` to lint the code with `tslint`.
|
|
|
|
## Generating Documentation
|
|
|
|
The continuous integration tests require that the documentation stays up-to-date. If you make changes to the JSON schemas, fixtures, or documentation sources, you must update the documentation by running `yarn run docgen`.
