bchLib.PrivateKey is not a constructor

[dovancao]

Hi there
I try use BCH-lib to create a private key
This is my code

// create transaction: sender send BCH to receiver
let privateKey = new bchLib.PrivateKey('testnet');
console.log(privateKey)

But I got this issue

let privateKey = new bchLib.PrivateKey('testnet');
                 ^
TypeError: bchLib.PrivateKey is not a constructor

How can I fix it?

Hi dovanco-

Thank you for your interest In OWS. We’re working hard to bring it to a 1.0 state. We’re in almost done refactoring the libraries to reduce the code base size, to make it easier to use the software with multiple networks, and to make it more extensible. The responsibility for creating keys has been moved to a new
key-lib. The doc needs updating but you should be able to create a new private key for bch as follows.

var keyLib = require(‘@owstack/key-lib’); let privateKey = new keyLib.PrivateKey('bchtest'); console.log(privateKey)

See
networks.js for a description of the bch networks.
