Overview

base58 is a binary-to-text codec that encodes into a ASCII/ANSI-string (single bytes) and decodes back to the original data in binary.

Functions

func CheckDecode

func CheckDecode(encoded []byte) ([]byte, error)

Decodes the Base58-content then checks the checksum. Returns content without the checksum.

func CheckEncode

func CheckEncode(dataWithChecksum []byte) ([]byte, error)

CheckEncode checks the concatenated 4-byte checksum then encodes the data to Base58.

func ChecksumEncode

func ChecksumEncode(data []byte) []byte

ChecksumEncode calculates the 4-byte checksum, concatenates the checksum, then encodes the content into Base58.

func Decode

func Decode(encoded []byte) ([]byte, error)

Decode decodes the Base58-encoded content.
