**brk-client**
***
# brk-client
JavaScript/TypeScript client for the [Bitcoin Research Kit](https://github.com/bitcoinresearchkit/brk) API.
Zero dependencies.
[npm](https://www.npmjs.com/package/brk-client) | [API Reference](https://github.com/bitcoinresearchkit/brk/blob/main/modules/brk-client/docs/globals.md)
AI clients can use the same API through the official stateless, read-only MCP
endpoint at [mcp.bitview.space](https://mcp.bitview.space/). No authentication
is required.
## Installation
```bash
npm install brk-client
```
Or just copy [`index.js`](globals.md) into your project - it's a single file with no dependencies.
## Quick Start
```javascript
import { BrkClient } from 'brk-client';
// Use the free public API or your own instance
const client = new BrkClient('https://bitview.space');
// or: `const client = new BrkClient({ baseUrl: 'https://bitview.space', timeout: 10000 });`
// Blockchain data (mempool.space compatible)
const block = await client.getBlockByHeight(800000);
const tx = await client.getTx('abc123...');
const address = await client.getAddress('bc1q...');
// Metrics API - typed, chainable
const prices = await client.metrics.price.usd.split.close
.by.dateindex
.last(30); // Last 30 items
// Generic metric fetching
const data = await client.getMetric('price_close', 'dateindex', -30);
```
