Nostr Wallet Connect service using Strike API.

Supported NWC Commands

make_invoice - requires partner.invoice.create and partner.invoice.quote.generate Strike API scopes.

lookup_invoice - requires partner.invoice.read Strike API scope.

Helper Scripts

npm run generate-secret will randomly generate a 32 byte hex encoded string which you can use to create your NWC_SERVICE_PRIVKEY and NWC_CONNECTION_SECRET env vars.

npm run print-nwc will print out your NWC connection string that you can use in Nostr clients such as Damus to make payments.

Usage

  1. Create an account with Strike if you don't already have one https://strike.me/download/
  2. Get a Strike API key from https://dashboard.strike.me/
  3. Install the dependencies using npm or yarn or whatever your heart desires
  4. Create a .env file with all the required env variables (see .env.example)
  5. Make sure you have money in your Strike account
  6. Print your NWC connection by running npm run print-nwc and copy it into whatever Nostr client you'd like to use to make payments
  7. Run the server npm start. If you have pm2 installed, start the server by running pm2 start src/index.js instead of npm start.

Make sure the server is running whenever making payments.
