Taquito Utils

Description

The @mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils package provides developers with utility functions in Taquito.

You can find a full list of available utility functions in Taquito here

Usage Example

To use the functions, simply import the function you need as such:

import { getPkhfromPk, b58cencode, b58cdecode } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils';

const publicKeyHash = getPkhfromPk('replace_with_publickey');
const encoded = b58cencode('replace_with_publickey');

Using Validation Functions from @mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils

Taquito provides functions that allow us to see if an address, a chain, a key hash, a contract address, a public key, or a signature is valid. Note that these validations do not rely on a node but are done based on checksums. Thus, they allow us to check if a value is valid and not if it exists on a chain. The ValidationResult returned by these functions is an enum that can take the following values:

0 = NO_PREFIX_MATCHED,
1 = INVALID_CHECKSUM,
2 = INVALID_LENGTH,
3 = VALID

Validate an address

The validateAddress function

This function can be used to validate implicit addresses (mv1, mv2, mv3) and originated addresses (KT1).

In the following example, the function is first called with a valid public key hash (pkh). It is then called with the same pkh where one character differs (e.g. 'p' instead of 'P'), which results in an invalid checksum.

Live Editor

import { validateAddress } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils'; //valid const pkh = 'mv1ENbzDhD32LEfMzqsH3PC6SUv2y62tJCrH'; const validation = validateAddress(pkh); println(`Calling the validateAddress function with ${pkh} returns ${validation}.`); //invalid checksum const invalidPkh = 'mv1NRLktBobVVU4Sy4Ab26DLTUAhUtxsWUHf'; const invalidValidation = validateAddress(invalidPkh); println(`Calling the validateAddress function with ${invalidPkh} returns ${invalidValidation}.`);

import { validateAddress } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils';

//valid
const pkh = 'mv1ENbzDhD32LEfMzqsH3PC6SUv2y62tJCrH';
const validation = validateAddress(pkh);
println(`Calling the validateAddress function with ${pkh} returns ${validation}.`);

//invalid checksum
const invalidPkh = 'mv1NRLktBobVVU4Sy4Ab26DLTUAhUtxsWUHf';
const invalidValidation = validateAddress(invalidPkh);
println(`Calling the validateAddress function with ${invalidPkh} returns ${invalidValidation}.`);

Result

The validateKeyHash function

This function is used to validate implicit addresses (mv1, mv2, mv3).

Here is a valid example with a pkh and an invalid one where the prefix is missing :

Live Editor

import { validateKeyHash } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils'; //valid const keyHash = 'mv1ENbzDhD32LEfMzqsH3PC6SUv2y62tJCrH'; const validation = validateKeyHash(keyHash); println(`Calling the validateKeyHash function with ${keyHash} returns ${validation}.`); //invalid prefix const keyHashWithoutPrefix = 'L9r8mWmRPndRhuvMCWESLGSVeFzQ9NAWx'; const invalidValidation = validateKeyHash(keyHashWithoutPrefix); println(`Calling the validateKeyHash function with ${keyHash} returns ${invalidValidation}.`);

import { validateKeyHash } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils';

//valid
const keyHash = 'mv1ENbzDhD32LEfMzqsH3PC6SUv2y62tJCrH';
const validation = validateKeyHash(keyHash);
println(`Calling the validateKeyHash function with ${keyHash} returns ${validation}.`);

//invalid prefix
const keyHashWithoutPrefix = 'L9r8mWmRPndRhuvMCWESLGSVeFzQ9NAWx';
const invalidValidation = validateKeyHash(keyHashWithoutPrefix);
println(`Calling the validateKeyHash function with ${keyHash} returns ${invalidValidation}.`);

Result

The validateContractAddress function

This function is used to validate originated addresses (KT1).

Here is a valid example with the address of an existing contract :

Live Editor

import { validateContractAddress } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils'; //valid const contractAddress = 'KT1AfxAKKLnEg6rQ6kHdvCWwagjSaxEwURSJ'; const validation = validateContractAddress(contractAddress); println(`Calling the validateContractAddress function with ${contractAddress} returns ${validation}.`);

import { validateContractAddress } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils';

//valid
const contractAddress = 'KT1AfxAKKLnEg6rQ6kHdvCWwagjSaxEwURSJ';
const validation = validateContractAddress(contractAddress);
println(`Calling the validateContractAddress function with ${contractAddress} returns ${validation}.`);

Result

Validate a chain

The validateChain function is used to validate a chain id.

The following example shows a valid result when using the mainnet chain id and an invalid result if the prefix is missing :

Live Editor

import { validateChain } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils'; //valid const chainId = 'NetXdQprcVkpaWU'; const validation = validateChain(chainId); println(`Calling the validateChain function with ${chainId} returns ${validation}.`); //invalid prefix const chainIdWithoutPrefix = 'XdQprcVkpaWU'; const invalidValidation = validateChain(chainIdWithoutPrefix); println(`Calling the validateChain function with ${chainIdWithoutPrefix} returns ${invalidValidation}.`);

import { validateChain } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils';

//valid
const chainId = 'NetXdQprcVkpaWU';
const validation = validateChain(chainId);
println(`Calling the validateChain function with ${chainId} returns ${validation}.`);

//invalid prefix
const chainIdWithoutPrefix = 'XdQprcVkpaWU';
const invalidValidation = validateChain(chainIdWithoutPrefix);
println(`Calling the validateChain function with ${chainIdWithoutPrefix} returns ${invalidValidation}.`);

Result

Validate a public key

The validatePublicKey is used to check if a public key is valid.

Live Editor

import { validatePublicKey } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils'; //valid const publicKey = 'edpkvS5QFv7KRGfa3b87gg9DBpxSm3NpSwnjhUjNBQrRUUR66F7C9g'; const validation = validatePublicKey(publicKey); println(`Calling the validatePublicKey function with ${publicKey} returns ${validation}.`); //invalid prefix const value = 'mv1ENbzDhD32LEfMzqsH3PC6SUv2y62tJCrH'; const invalidValidation = validatePublicKey(value); println(`Calling the validatePublicKey function with ${value} returns ${invalidValidation}.`);

import { validatePublicKey } from '@mavrykdynamics/taquito-utils';

//valid
const publicKey = 'edpkvS5QFv7KRGfa3b87gg9DBpxSm3NpSwnjhUjNBQrRUUR66F7C9g';
const validation = validatePublicKey(publicKey);
println(`Calling the validatePublicKey function with ${publicKey} returns ${validation}.`);

//invalid prefix
const value = 'mv1ENbzDhD32LEfMzqsH3PC6SUv2y62tJCrH';
const invalidValidation = validatePublicKey(value);
println(`Calling the validatePublicKey function with ${value} returns ${invalidValidation}.`);

Verification of a signature

Taquito provides a function named verifySignature that allows verifying signatures of payloads. The function takes a message, a public key, and a signature as parameters and returns a boolean indicating if the signature matches.

Here is an example of a successful verification:
