Elm offchain package for Cardano. This project aims to be the friendliest and most productive way of handling an offchain Cardano frontend. It should be a perfect match to Aiken for onchain code.
Remark: this is aspiration as the elm-cardano package is not published yet.
Install the Elm package with your usual tool. We recommand using elm-json.
# Install
elm install mpizenberg/elm-cardano
# Or better, use elm-json
elm-json install mpizenberg/elm-cardano
Once the elm-cardano package is installed in your elm project, you need to add
the corresponding JS file elm-cardano.js
to your index.html
. Finally, you
need to call initElmCardanoJs(app)
after initializing the main of the elm app.
TODO: this file currently lives in
examples/wallet-cip30/elm-cardano.js
we should bring it up in the repo once things have stabilized a bit.
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Main</title>
<script src="main.js"></script>
<script src="elm-cardano.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="myapp"></div>
<script>
var app = Elm.Main.init({
node: document.getElementById('myapp'),
flags: null,
});
initElmCardanoJs(app)
</script>
</body>
</html>
After that, just follow the elm-cardano package docs to know how to use it.
Contributions are welcomed! For now things are moving fast so I suggest discussing first over TxPipe discord, in the Elm Cardano thread.
