1. config.json
Use Environment Variables: For better security, consider using environment variables instead of storing sensitive data (like private keys) in plaintext. This can be managed with libraries like dotenv, which load environment variables from a
.env file:
PRIVATE_KEY=your_private_key_here
NETWORK=testnet # 'testnet' or 'bitcoin'
Notes:
Environment Variables: Replace config.json by accessing sensitive information directly from environment variables like process.env.PRIVATE_KEY.
Error Handling: Add checks to ensure PRIVATE_KEY and NETWORK are defined and valid to prevent runtime errors:
if (!process.env.PRIVATE_KEY) {
console.error("Error: PRIVATE_KEY is missing.");
process.exit(1);
}
Refactor to Functions: Wrap the logic in reusable functions to improve readability and facilitate testing:
function getPublicKey(privateKey, network) {
return Buffer.from(ECPair.fromWIF(privateKey, network).publicKey).toString('hex');
}
Switch to Environment Variables: For security, avoid reading private keys directly from config.json. Access process.env.PRIVATE_KEY directly instead.
Input Validation: Check if txHex is provided and correctly formatted:
const txHex = process.argv[2];
if (!txHex) {
console.error("Error: Transaction hex is missing.");
process.exit(1);
}
Error Handling: Use a try-catch block to handle potential errors in the signing process:
Modularity: Refactor the signing logic into functions (e.g., signTransaction) to improve readability and ease testing.
4. Testing
Add Minimal Test Coverage: Implement basic unit tests for public-key.js and sign.js to cover core functionalities and edge cases. Using a testing framework like Jest or Mocha can simplify this process. Suggested tests include:
Public Key Generation: Check that the function returns the correct public key for a valid private key.
Transaction Signing: Validate that a provided transaction is correctly signed, including error handling for invalid input.
5. README.md Enhancements
Specify Compatibility: Mention the tested Node.js versions (e.g., v14.x, v16.x) and compatible operating systems (macOS, Ubuntu, Windows).
Recap:
Security Notes: It's better to use environment variables for sensitive data.
Error Handling: Document expected error messages for common issues (e.g., missing private key, invalid transaction hex).
Examples and Usage: Expand usage examples to guide users through setting up environment variables, running the library commands, and troubleshooting common issues.
