The Lit JavaScript SDK provides developers with a framework for implementing Lit functionality into their own applications. Find installation instructions in the docs to get started with the Lit SDK based on your use case:
Removed browser-specific methods, e.g., checkAndSignAuthSig
yarn add @lit-protocol/lit-node-client-nodejs
or..
Operable in both Node.js and the browser
yarn add @lit-protocol/lit-node-client
📝 If you're looking to use the Lit SDK, you're probably all set with just the lit-node-client .
Get started with interacting with Lit network!

If you're a tech-savvy user and wish to utilize only specific submodules that our main module relies upon, you can find individual packages listed below. This way, you can import only the necessary packages that cater to your specific use case::
| Version | Link |
|---|---|
| V6 (Beta) | 6.x.x docs |
| V5 (Current) | 5.x.x docs |
| V2 | 2.x.x docs |
- node (v19.x or above)
The following commands will help you start developing with this repository.
First, install the dependencies via yarn:
yarn
You can build the project with the following commands:
// for local development - It stripped away operations that don't matter for local dev
yarn build:dev
// you should never need to use yarn build unless you want to test or publish it
yarn build
yarn test:unit
yarn test:local
nx generate @nx/js:library
yarn tools --create --react contracts-sdk --demo// delete an app from ./app/<app-name>
yarn delete:app <app-name>
// delete a package from ./packages/<package-name>
yarn delete:package <package-name>
yarn buildyarn nx run <project-name>:buildDuring development you may wish to build your code changes in packages/ in a client application to test the correctness of the functionality.
If you would like to establish a dependency between packages within this monorepo and an external client application that consumes these packages:
- Run
npm linkat the root of the specific package you are making code changes in.
cd ./packages/*/<package-name>
npm link
- Build the packages with or without dependencies
yarn build
# or
yarn nx run lit-node-client-nodejs:build --with-deps=false
- In the client application, run
npm link <package> --saveto ensure that thepackage.jsonof the client application is updated with afile:link to the dependency. This effectively creates a symlink in thenode_modulesof the client application to the local dependency in this repository.
cd path/to/client-application
npm link <package> --save
Having done this setup, this is what the development cycle looks like moving forward:
- Make code change
- Rebuild specific package
- Rebuild client application.
You must have at least nodejs v18 to do this.
-
Install the latest packages with
yarn install -
Run
yarn bumpto bump the version -
Build all the packages with
yarn build -
Run the unit tests with
yarn test:unit& e2e node testsyarn test:locallocally & ensure that they pass -
Update the docs with
yarn gen:docs --push -
Finally, publish with the
@cayennetag:yarn publish:cayenne -
Commit these changes "Published version X.X.X"
git checkout serrano
yarn bump
yarn build
yarn node ./tools/scripts/pub.mjs --tag serrano-jalapenoThe following will serve the react testing app and launch the cypress e2e testing after
yarn test:localyarn test:unitFirst, deploy your Lit Node Contracts, since the correct addresses will be pulled from the ../lit-assets/blockchain/contracts/deployed-lit-node-contracts-temp.json file.
Set these two env vars:
export LIT_JS_SDK_LOCAL_NODE_DEV="true"
export LIT_JS_SDK_FUNDED_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY="putAFundedPrivateKeyOnChronicleHere"Run:
yarn update:contracts-sdk --fetch
yarn update:contracts-sdk --gen
yarn build:packagesTo run manual tests:
yarn nx run nodejs:serve- LIT_JS_SDK_GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN - a github access token to get the contract ABIs from a private repo
- LIT_JS_SDK_LOCAL_NODE_DEV - set to true to use a local node
- LIT_JS_SDK_FUNDED_WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY - set to a funded wallet on Chronicle Testnet
