工具包提供了大量的通用实用函数去编写 dapps、处理用户输入和格式化数据等功能。


地址相关函数

There are several formats available to represent Ethereum addresses and various ways they are determined.

utils . getAddress ( address )   =>   Address
Normalize any supported address-format to a checksum address.
utils . getIcapAddress ( address )   =>   hex
Normalize any supported address-format to a ICAP address.
utils . getContractAddress ( transaction )   =>   Address
Computes the contract address of a contract deployed by transaction. The only properties used are from and nonce.
convert between address formats
let address = "0xd115bffabbdd893a6f7cea402e7338643ced44a6";
let icapAddress = "XE93OF8SR0OWI6F4FO88KWO4UNNGG1FEBHI";

console.log(utils.getAddress(address));
// "0xD115BFFAbbdd893A6f7ceA402e7338643Ced44a6"

console.log(utils.getAddress(icapAddress));
// "0xD115BFFAbbdd893A6f7ceA402e7338643Ced44a6"

console.log(utils.getAddress(address, true));
// "XE93OF8SR0OWI6F4FO88KWO4UNNGG1FEBHI"

console.log(utils.getAddress(icapAddress, true));
// "XE93OF8SR0OWI6F4FO88KWO4UNNGG1FEBHI"

};

console.log(utils.getContractAddress(transaction));
// "0x0CcCC7507aEDf9FEaF8C8D731421746e16b4d39D"

Arrayish

An arrayish object is used to describe binary data and has the following conditions met:

  • has a length property
  • has a value for each index from 0 up to (but excluding) length
  • has a valid byte for each value; a byte is an integer in the range [0, 255]
  • is not a string

Examples: Buffer, [ 1, 2, 3 ], Uint8Array

utils . isArrayish ( object )   =>   boolean
Returns true if object can be treated as an arrayish object.
utils . arrayify ( hexStringOrBigNumberOrArrayish )   =>   Uint8Array
Returns a Uint8Array of a hex string, BigNumber or of an Arrayish object.
utils . concat ( arrayOfHexStringsAndArrayish )   =>   Uint8Array
Return a Uint8Array of all arrayOfHexStringsAndArrayish concatenated.
utils . padZeros ( typedUint8Array, length )   =>   Uint8Array
Return a Uint8Array of typedUint8Array with zeros prepended to length bytes.
utils . stripZeros ( hexStringOrArrayish )   =>   Uint8Array
Returns a Uint8Array with all leading zero bytes striped.

大数处理

A BigNumber is an immutable object which allow accurate math operations on values larger than JavaScript can accurately handle can safely handle. Also see: Constants

prototype . sub ( otherValue )   =>   BigNumber
Return a new BigNumber of this minus otherValue.
prototype . mul ( otherValue )   =>   BigNumber
Return a new BigNumber of this times otherValue.
prototype . div ( otherValue )   =>   BigNumber
Return a new BigNumber of this divided by otherValue.
prototype . mod ( otherValue )   =>   BigNumber
Return a new BigNumber of this modulo otherValue.
prototype . maskn ( bits )   =>   BigNumber
Return a new BigNumber with the number of bits masked.
prototype . eq ( otherValue )   =>   boolean
Return true if this is equal to otherValue.
prototype . lt ( otherValue )   =>   boolean
Return true if this is less than otherValue.
prototype . lte ( otherValue )   =>   boolean
Return true if this is less or equal to otherValue.
prototype . gt ( otherValue )   =>   boolean
Return true if this is greater than otherValue.
prototype . gte ( otherValue )   =>   boolean
Return true if this is greater than or equal to otherValue.
prototype . isZero ( )   =>   boolean
Return true if this is equal to zero.
prototype . toNumber ( )   =>   number

Return a JavaScript number of the value.

An error is thrown if the value is outside the safe range for JavaScript IEEE 754 64-bit floating point numbers (over 53 bits of mantissa).

prototype . toString ()   =>   string
Return a decimal string representation.
prototype . toHexString ( )   =>   hex
Return a hexstring representation of the value.

创建 BigNumber 实例

utils . bigNumberify ( value )   =>   BigNumber

Returns a BigNumber instance of value. The value may be anything that can reliably be converted into a BigNumber:

Type Examples Notes
decimal string "42", "-42"  
hexadecimal string "0x2a", "-0x2a" case-insensitive
numbers 42, -42 must be witin the safe range
Arrayish [ 30, 252 ] big-endian encoding
BigNumber any other BigNumber returns the same instance
examples
let gasPriceWei = utils.bigNumberify("20902747399");
let gasLimit = utils.bigNumberify(3000000);

let maxCostWei = gasPriceWei.mul(gasLimit)
console.log("Max Cost: " + maxCostWei.toString());
// "Max Cost: 62708242197000000"

console.log("Number: " + maxCostWei.toNumber());
// throws an Error, the value is too large for JavaScript to handle safely

Bytes32 字符串

Often for short strings, it is far more efficient to store them as a fixed, null-terminated bytes32, instead of a dynamic length-prefixed bytes.

utils . formatBytes32String ( text )   =>   hex

Returns a hex string representation of text, exactly 32 bytes wide. Strings must be 31 bytes or shorter, or an exception is thrown.

NOTE: Keep in mind that UTF-8 characters outside the ASCII range can be multiple bytes long.

utils . parseBytes32String ( hexStringOrArrayish )   =>   string
Returns hexStringOrArrayish as the original string, as generated by formatBytes32String.
example
let text = "Hello World!"

let bytes32 = ethers.utils.formatBytes32String(text)
// "0x48656c6c6f20576f726c64210000000000000000000000000000000000000000"

// "Hello World!"

Compute the SHA256 cryptographic hash using the Solidity non-standard (tightly) packed data for values given the types.
utils . solidityPack ( types, values )   =>   hex
Compute the Solidity non-standard (tightly) packed data for values given the types.

Hex 字符串

A hex string is always prefixed with “0x” and consists of the characters 0 – 9 and a – f. It is always returned lower case with even-length, but any hex string passed into a function may be any case and may be odd-length.

utils . hexlify ( numberOrBigNumberOrHexStringOrArrayish )   =>   hex

utils . isHexString ( value )   =>   boolean
Returns true if value is a valid hexstring.
utils . hexDataLength ( hexString )   =>   number
Returns the length (in bytes) of hexString if it is a valid data hexstring (even length).
utils . hexDataSlice ( hexString , offset [ , endOffset ] )   =>   hex
Returns a string for the subdata of hexString from offset bytes (each byte is two nibbled) to endOffset bytes. If no endOffset is specified, the result is to the end of the hexString is used. Each byte is two nibbles.
utils . hexStripZeros ( hexString )   =>   hex
Returns hexString with all leading zeros removed, but retaining at least one nibble, even if zero (e.g. 0x0). This may return an odd-length string.
utils . hexZeroPad ( hexString , length )   =>   hex
Returns hexString padded (on the left) with zeros to length bytes (each byte is two nibbles).

Namehash

utils . namehash ( ensName )   =>   hex
Compute the namehash of ensName. Currently only supports the characters [a-z0-9.-]. The concerns with fully supporting UTF-8 are largely security releated, but are open for discussion.
examples
let namehash = utils.namehash('ricmoo.firefly.eth');
// "0x0bcad17ecf260d6506c6b97768bdc2acfb6694445d27ffd3f9c1cfbee4a9bd6d"

签名

There are two common formats for signatures in Ethereum. The flat-format, which is a hexstring with 65 bytes (130 nibbles); or an expanded-format, which is an object with the properties:

  • r and s — the (r, s) public point of a signature
  • recoveryParam — the recovery parameter of a signautre (either 0 or 1)
  • v — the recovery param nomalized for Solidity (either 27 or 28)
utils . splitSignature ( hexStringOrArrayishOrSignature )   =>   Signature
Returns an expanded-format signature object for hexStringOrArrayishOrSignature. Passing in an signature that is already in the expanded-format will ensure both recoveryParam and v are populated.
utils . joinSignature ( signature )   =>   hex
Returns the flat-format signature hexstring of signature. The final v byte will always be normalized to 0x1b of 0x1c.
To Expanded-Format
// Flat-format; this is the format provided by JSON-RPC responses
let flat = "0x0ba9770fd8778383f6d56faadc71e17b75f0d6e3ff0a408d5e6c4cee3bd70a16" +
             "3574da0ebfb1eaac261698b057b342e52ea53f85287272cea471a4cda41e3466" +
             "1b"
let expanded = utils.splitSignature(flat);

console.log(expanded);
// {
//    r: "0x0ba9770fd8778383f6d56faadc71e17b75f0d6e3ff0a408d5e6c4cee3bd70a16",
//    s: "0x3574da0ebfb1eaac261698b057b342e52ea53f85287272cea471a4cda41e3466",
//    recoveryParam: 0,
//    v: 27
// }
To Flat-Format
// Expanded-format; this is the format Solidity and other tools often require
let expanded = {
    r: "0x0ba9770fd8778383f6d56faadc71e17b75f0d6e3ff0a408d5e6c4cee3bd70a16",

    recoveryParam: 0,
    v: 27
}
let flat = utils.joinSignature(expanded);

console.log(flat)
// "0x0ba9770fd8778383f6d56faadc71e17b75f0d6e3ff0a408d5e6c4cee3bd70a16" +
//   "3574da0ebfb1eaac261698b057b342e52ea53f85287272cea471a4cda41e3466" +
//   "1b"

  • to
  • nonce
