X-Address Compatibility

• ripple-binary-codec handles X-addresses by looking for a few specific files (Account/SourceTag, Destination/DestinationTag).
• If other fields (in the future) must to support X-addresses with tags, this library will need to be updated.
• When decoding rippled binary, the output will always output classic address + tag, with no X-addresses. X-address support only applies when encoding to binary.

encodeForSigning(json: object): string

Encode the transaction object for signing.

encodeForSigningClaim(json: object): string

Encode the transaction object for payment channel claim.

encodeForMultisigning(json: object, signer: string): string

Encode the transaction object for multi-signing.

encodeQuality(value: string): string

'5D06F4C3362FE1D0'

decodeQuality(value: string): string

> api.decodeQuality('5D06F4C3362FE1D0')
'195796912.5171664'

Tests

Run unit tests with:

yarn test

Use --coverage to generate and display code coverage information:

yarn test --coverage

This tells jest to output code coverage info in the ./coverage directory, in addition to showing it on the command line.
