Socket researchers found 10 typosquatted npm packages that auto-run on install, show fake CAPTCHAs, fingerprint by IP, and deploy a credential stealer.
@noir-lang/noir_wasm
Advanced tools
This JavaScript package enables users to compile a Noir program, i.e. generating its artifacts, both in Node.JS environments and the browser.
The package also handles dependency management like how Nargo (Noir's CLI tool) operates, but the package is used just for compilation, not proving, verifying and simulating functions.
// Node.js
import { compile, createFileManager } from '@noir-lang/noir_wasm';
const fm = createFileManager(myProjectPath);
const myCompiledCode = await compile(fm);
// Browser
import { compile, createFileManager } from '@noir-lang/noir_wasm';
const fm = createFileManager('/');
for (const path of files) {
await fm.writeFile(path, await getFileAsStream(path));
}
const myCompiledCode = await compile(fm);
