### Browser
If you're familiar with how to use browserify, ignore this and proceed normally.
These steps are advisory only, and may not be necessary for your application.
These steps are advisory only, and may not be suitable for your application.
[Browserify](https://github.com/substack/node-browserify) is assumed to be installed for these steps.
From your repository, create an `index.js` file
For your project, create an `index.js` file
``` javascript
module.exports = {
base58: require('bs58'),
bitcoin: require('bitcoinjs-lib'),
ecurve: require('ecurve'),
BigInteger: require('bigi')
let bitcoin = require('bitcoinjs-lib')
// your code here
function myFunction () {
return bitcoin.ECPair.makeRandom().toWIF()
}
```
Install each of the above packages locally
``` bash
npm install bs58 bitcoinjs-lib ecurve bigi
module.exports = {
myFunction
}
```
After installation, use browserify to compile `index.js` for use in the browser:
Now, to compile for the browser:
``` bash
$ browserify index.js --standalone foo > app.js
browserify index.js --standalone foo > app.js
```
You will now be able to use `<script src="app.js" />` in your browser, with each of the above exports accessible via the global `foo` object (or whatever you chose for the `--standalone` parameter above).
**NOTE**: See our package.json for the currently supported version of browserify used by this repository.
You can now put `<script src="app.js" />` in your web page, using `foo.myFunction` to create a new Bitcoin private key.
**NOTE**: When uglifying the javascript, you must exclude the following variable names from being mangled: `Array`, `BigInteger`, `Boolean`, `ECPair`, `Function`, `Number`, `Point` and `Script`.
**NOTE**: If you uglify the javascript, you must exclude the following variable names from being mangled: `BigInteger`, `ECPair`, `Point`.
This is because of the function-name-duck-typing used in [typeforce](https://github.com/dcousens/typeforce).
**NOTE**: This library tracks Node LTS features, if you need strict ES5, use [`--transform babelify`](https://github.com/babel/babelify) in conjunction with your `browserify` step (using an [`es2015`](http://babeljs.io/docs/plugins/preset-es2015/) preset).
**NOTE**: If you expect this library to run on an iOS 10 device, ensure that you are using [buffer@5.0.5](https://github.com/feross/buffer/pull/155) or greater.
