Extendability

There is room for extending this API through a request method. This method might also be useful as a base from which all the other methods in the specification might have wrapper methods.

Syntax

window.webbtc.request(method, params)

Parameters

• method: String Required
• params: Array Required

Returns

• Promise | Object

NOTE:
This call might be asynchronous is would return a promise based on wether or not the payment has been broadcast Onchain and or processed successfully

Example

// Example of calling an existing method
window.webbtc.request('getInfo',[])
{ 
  "version" : 1,
  "supports" : [
    "bip39",
    "bip32"
  ],
  "methods": [ // schema for available methods
    "enable",
    "getInfo",
    "getAddress",
    "signMessage",
    "verifyMessage",
    "makeInvoice",
    "sendPayment"
  ]
}

// Example for calling an arbitrary message not covered in the specification

// Custom method might be 
// hello(name) {
// return "Hello ${name}" 
//}

> await window.webbtc.request('hello',['Alice'])

Hello Alice
