Introducing Enhanced Alert Actions and Triage Functionality
Socket now supports four distinct alert actions instead of the previous two, and alert triaging allows users to override the actions taken for all individual alerts.

Package description
The 'rlp' npm package is used for encoding and decoding data using the Recursive Length Prefix (RLP) encoding scheme, which is commonly used in Ethereum and other blockchain technologies. RLP is a method to encode arbitrarily nested arrays of binary data, and it is particularly useful for serializing data structures in a compact and efficient manner.
Encoding Data
This feature allows you to encode an array of data into RLP format. In this example, the array ['cat', 'dog'] is encoded into its RLP representation.
const rlp = require('rlp');
const encoded = rlp.encode(['cat', 'dog']);
console.log(encoded);
Decoding Data
This feature allows you to decode RLP-encoded data back into its original form. In this example, the RLP-encoded buffer is decoded back into the array ['cat', 'dog'].
const rlp = require('rlp');
const encoded = Buffer.from('c88363617483646f67', 'hex');
const decoded = rlp.decode(encoded);
console.log(decoded);
The 'ethereumjs-util' package provides a variety of utility functions for Ethereum, including RLP encoding and decoding. It offers a broader range of functionalities compared to 'rlp', such as cryptographic functions, keccak hashing, and more. It is more comprehensive for Ethereum-specific tasks.
The 'rlp-stream' package is designed for streaming RLP encoding and decoding. It is useful for handling large datasets or continuous streams of data that need to be processed in chunks. This package is more specialized for streaming use cases compared to 'rlp'.
Readme
npm install rlp
var RLP = require('rlp');
var nestedList = [ [], [[]], [ [], [[]] ] ];
var encoded = RLP.encode(nestedList);
var decoded = RLP.decode(encoded);
assert.deepEqual(nestedList, decoded);
});
rlp.encode(plain)
- RLP encodes an Array
, Buffer
or String
and returns a Buffer
rlp.decode(encoded)
- Decodes a RLP encoded Buffer
, Array
or String
and returns a Buffer
or an Array
of Buffers
test uses mocha. To run
