caver.klay.abi

The caver-klay-abi package allows you to de- and encode parameters from an ABI (Application Binary Interface). This will be used for calling functions of a deployed smart-contract.

encodeFunctionSignature ​


caver.klay.abi.encodeFunctionSignature(functionSignature)

Encodes the function signature to its ABI signature, which are the first 4 bytes of the sha3 hash of the function name including types.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
functionSignatureString | ObjectThe function signature or the JSON interface object of the function to encode. If String it has to be in the form function(type,type,...), e.g: myFunction(uint256,uint32[],bytes10,bytes)

Return Value

TypeDescription
StringThe ABI signature of the function.

Examples


// From a JSON interface object
caver.klay.abi.encodeFunctionSignature({
name: 'myMethod',
type: 'function',
inputs: [{
type: 'uint256',
name: 'myNumber'
},{
type: 'string',
name: 'myString'
}]
})
> 0x24ee0097
// From a function signature
caver.klay.abi.encodeFunctionSignature('myMethod(uint256,string)')
> '0x24ee0097'

encodeEventSignature ​


caver.klay.abi.encodeEventSignature(eventSignature)

Encodes the event signature to its ABI signature, which is the sha3 hash of the event name including input types.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
eventSignatureString | ObjectThe event signature or the JSON interface object of the event to encode. If string it has to be in the form event(type,type,...), e.g: myEvent(uint256,uint32[],bytes10,bytes)

Return Value

TypeDescription
StringThe ABI signature of the event.

Examples


// From a JSON interface object
caver.klay.abi.encodeEventSignature({
name: 'myEvent',
type: 'event',
inputs: [{
type: 'uint256',
name: 'myNumber'
},{
type: 'bytes32',
name: 'myBytes'
}]
})
> 0xf2eeb729e636a8cb783be044acf6b7b1e2c5863735b60d6daae84c366ee87d97
// From an event signature
caver.klay.abi.encodeEventSignature('myEvent(uint256,bytes32)')
