If your project does not contain it already, install the peer dependency @iota/iota-sdk as well.

npm install @iota/iota-sdk

You can install the latest alpha version of the library by running the following command:

npm install @iota/identity-wasm@alpha

Alternatively, you can build the bindings yourself if you have Rust installed. If not, refer to rustup.rs for the installation.

• Node.js (>= v20)
• Rust (>= 1.65)
• Cargo (>= 1.65)
• for running example: a local network node with the IOTA identity package deployed as described here

If you want to build the library from source, you will first need to manually install wasm-bindgen-cli. A manual installation is required because we use the Weak References feature, which wasm-pack does not expose.

cargo install --force wasm-bindgen-cli

After installing wasm-bindgen-cli, you can install the necessary dependencies using the following command:

npm install

You can build the bindings for node.js using the following command:

npm run build:nodejs
