Installation & Setup

Prerequisites

Before installing IOTA Repstation, ensure you have:

Node.js Environment

Node.js version 16 or higher
npm, yarn, or pnpm package manager
TypeScript support (recommended)

IOTA Wallet Setup

An IOTA wallet for testnet/mainnet transactions
Basic understanding of IOTA addresses and transactions
Access to IOTA RPC endpoints

Installation

Install the Package

Install IOTA Repstation using your preferred package manager:

npm install @repstation/sdk

yarn add @repstation/sdk

pnpm add @repstation/sdk

Install IOTA SDK (Optional)

For real blockchain interactions, install the official IOTA SDK:

npm install @iota/sdk

The IOTA SDK is optional. IOTA Repstation includes mock clients for development and testing.

TypeScript Configuration

If using TypeScript, ensure your tsconfig.json supports modern ES features:

tsconfig.json

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "target": "ES2022",
    "module": "ESNext",
    "moduleResolution": "bundler",
    "strict": true,
    "esModuleInterop": true,
    "skipLibCheck": true
  }
}

Network Configurations

IOTA Repstation supports multiple networks:

Testnet
Mainnet
Custom

const config = {
  network: 'testnet',
  rpcUrl: 'https://api.testnet.iota.cafe'
};

Best for: Development, testing, and integration

const config = {
  network: 'mainnet',
  rpcUrl: 'https://api.mainnet.iota.cafe'
};

Best for: Production applications

const config = {
  network: 'custom',
  rpcUrl: 'https://your-custom-node.com'
};

Best for: Private networks or custom deployments

Client Configuration

Browser/Frontend Setup

For frontend applications:

import { RepstationClient } from '@repstation/sdk';

const client = new RepstationClient({
    network: 'testnet', // or 'mainnet'
    rpcUrl: 'https://api.testnet.iota.cafe',
    client: iotaClient // Optional
});

Verification

Test your installation with a simple reputation query:

async function testInstallation() {
  try {
    const result = await client.getReputationProfile({
      walletAddress: '0x86d455032e8c6af6885ff07cbf4eb1f76c532e4de1f7c6358d2ed06dc51d7554'
    });
    
    if (result.success) {
      console.log('✅ Installation successful!');
      console.log('Profile:', result.profile);
    } else {
      console.log('❌ Installation issue:', result.error);
    }
  } catch (error) {
    console.error('❌ Installation failed:', error);
  }
}

testInstallation();
