String encodings for javascript.

Usage

'use strict';

const assert = require('assert');
const {base58, bech32, cashaddr} = require('bstring');

// Base58
const b58 = base58.encode(Buffer.from([1,2,3]));
assert(base58.test(b58));
const data = base58.decode(b58);
console.log(data);

// Bech32
const b32 = bech32.encode('bc', 0, Buffer.alloc(20, 0x10));
assert(bech32.test(b32));
const {hrp, version, hash} = bech32.decode(b32);
console.log([hrp, version, hash]);

// CashAddr
const address = cashaddr.encode('bitcoincash', 0, Buffer.alloc(20, 0x10));
assert(cashaddr.test(address));
const res1 = cashaddr.decode(address);
console.log([res1.prefix, res1.type, res1.hash]);

const noPrefixAddress = address.split(':')[1];
assert(cashaddr.test(noPrefixAddress, 'bitcoincash'));
const res2 = cashaddr.decode(noPrefixAddress, 'bitcoincash');
console.log([res2.prefix, res2.type, res2.hash]);
