@welshman/dvm

@welshman/dvm is a comprehensive package for building and interacting with Data Vending Machines (DVMs) in the Nostr ecosystem. It provides both server-side DVM implementation capabilities and client-side request handling.

What is a DVM?

A Data Vending Machine (DVM) is a Nostr service that:

• Listens for specific kinds of events
• Processes these events according to defined rules
• Responds with new events containing processed data
• Optionally provides progress updates during processing

Installation

npm install @welshman/dvm
