nostr

  

Communicate with any participant, be it relays or clients, with elixir

Installation

As of now, this project needs rust to compile. We’re in the process of getting rid of that dependency despite rust still being used under the covers, thanks to rustler_precompiled.

def deps do
  [
    {:nostr,  git: "https://github.com/RooSoft/nostr.git"}
  ]
end

Create a private key

iex -S mix

K256.Schnorr.generate_random_signing_key

Use the example app

In the lib/examples, there is a NostrApp ready to be used. It connects to a relay and retrieves your own notes and stuff. The easiest way to use it is to create a .iex.local.exs file and paste that in

relay = "wss://relay.nostr.pro" ## here's a list of relays: https://nostr-registry.netlify.app
private_key = <<>> ### here goes your private key

NostrApp.start_link(relay, private_key)

and start iex

iex -S mix

Now what?

You’ll receive past and live events into the console, and are now able to send messages with that identity.

NostrApp.send("aren't you entertained?")
