Base58btc Isomorphic Encoder/Decoder for JS and TS (@interop/base58-universal)
Isomorphic JS encode/decode library using the Base58 (Bitcoin) encoding scheme (for Node.js and browsers).
Table of Contents
Background
(Converted to TypeScript from Digital Bazaar's base58-universal
repository.)
This library provides a TypeScript and JS encoder/decoder functions for the Base58 (Bitcoin) encoding scheme using an alphabet popularized by Bitcoin. It works in both Node.js and in Web browsers with no dependencies.
Security
TBD
Install
- Node.js 12+.
NPM
To install via NPM:
npm install @interop/base58-universal
Development
To install locally (for development):
git clone https://github.com/interop-alliance/base58-universal.git
cd base58-universal
npm install
Usage
The library can be loaded with ESM or CommonJS:
1import * as base58btc from '@interop/base58-universal'
1const base58btc = require('@interop/base58-universal')
Encoding
encode(input: Uint8Array): string- Returns a base58 encoded string.
1const input1 = Uint8Array([1, 2, 3, 4]) 2const encoded1 = base58btc.encode(input1) 3// > 2VfUX 4 5const input2 = Uint8Array([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10]) 6const encoded2 = base58btc.encode(input2) 7// > 4HUtbHhN2TkpR
Decoding
decode(input: string): Uint8Arrayinput:string- string to decode- Returns a
Uint8Arraywith the decoded bytes.
1const input3 = '2VfUX' 2const decoded3 = base58btc.decode(input3) 3// > Uint8Array [ 1, 2, 3, 4 ] 4 5const input4 = '4HUtbHhN2TkpR' 6const decoded4 = base58btc.decode(input4) 7// > Uint8Array [ 8// 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 9// 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 10// ]
String Handling
This library uses Uint8Array for encoder input and decoder output. Conversion to and from strings can be done with a variety of tools.
Browser
- TextEncoder and TextDecoder using the Encoding standard.
1const input5 = new TextEncoder().encode('abc') 2const encoded5 = base58btc.encode(input5) 3// > ZiCa 4 5const decoded6 = base58btc.decode(encoded5) 6const output6 = new TextDecoder().decode(decoded6) 7// > abc
Node.js
- TextEncoder and TextDecoder using the Encoding standard.
- Buffer
fromandtoStringwith encoding options.
1// Using TextEncoder/TextDecoder (included in Node.js since v12) 2const input7 = new TextEncoder().encode('abc') 3const encoded7 = base58btc.encode(input7) 4// > ZiCa 5 6const decoded8 = base58btc.decode(encoded7) 7const output8 = new TextDecoder().decode(decoded8) 8// > abc 9 10// Using Buffer (which is a Uint8Array) 11const input9 = Buffer.from('616263', 'hex') 12const encoded9 = base58btc.encode(input9) 13const decoded9 = base58btc.decode(encoded9) 14Buffer.from(decoded9).toString() 15// > abc 16Buffer.from(decoded9).toString('hex') 17// > 616263
