Using Terra.js on the new Terra chain

Outside of the deprecation of the treasury, market, and oracle modules, Terra.js functionality remains relatively unchanged. There are a few additions to allow for legacy commands which are explained in the Using Terra Classic page.

Terra.js seeks to provide a compatible way to work with the Terra blockchain within JavaScript runtimes, such as Node.js and the browser. Terra.js enables the following functions:

  • Deserializing blockchain data into JavaScript objects with native data types and methods

  • Serializing objects back into a blockchain-compatible format

  • Providing access to the terrad node API (LCD) from a JavaScript-based interface

  • Providing additional utilities, such as hash functions and key-signing algorithms
