filecoin-address

This is a JS implementation of the Filecoin address type, inspired by go-address. It can create new address instances and encode addresses, and it takes care of decoding and validating checksums.

Install

Usage

const { newFromString, encode } = require('@glif/filecoin-address')

const address = newFromString('t1hvuzpfdycc6z6mjgbiyaiojikd6wk2vwy7muuei')
const addressProtocol = address.protocol()
const addressPayload = address.payload()
const addressString = address.str // Uint8Array

const networkPrefix = 't'
const encoded = encode(networkPrefix, address)
