SYNOPSIS

NPM Package Build Status Coverage Status Gitter js-standard-style

This library eases the handling of Ethereum accounts, where accounts can be either external accounts or contracts (see Account Types docs).

Note that the library is not meant to be used to handle your wallet accounts, use e.g. the web3-eth-personal package from the web3.js library for that. This is just a semantic wrapper to ease the use of account data and provide functionality for reading and writing accounts from and to the Ethereum state trie.

INSTALL

npm install ethereumjs-account

BROWSER

This module work with browserify.

API

new Account([data])

Creates a new account object

  • data - an account can be initialized with either a buffer containing the RLP serialized account. Or an Array of buffers relating to each of the account Properties, listed in order below. For example:
var raw = [
  '0x02', //nonce
  '0x0384', //balance
  '0x56e81f171bcc55a6ff8345e692c0f86e5b48e01b996cadc001622fb5e363b421', //stateRoot
  '0xc5d2460186f7233c927e7db2dcc703c0e500b653ca82273b7bfad8045d85a470', //codeHash
]
 
var account = new Account(raw)

Or lastly an Object containing the Properties of the account:

var raw = {
  nonce: '',
  balance: '0x03e7',
  stateRoot: '0x56e81f171bcc55a6ff8345e692c0f86e5b48e01b996cadc001622fb5e363b421',
  codeHash: '0xc5d2460186f7233c927e7db2dcc703c0e500b653ca82273b7bfad8045d85a470',
}
 
var account = new Account(raw)

For Object and Array each of the elements can either be a Buffer, hex String, Number, or an object with a toBuffer method such as Bignum.

Account Properties

  • nonce - The account's nonce.
  • balance - The account's balance in wei.
  • stateRoot - The stateRoot for the storage of the contract.
  • codeHash - The hash of the code of the contract.

Account Methods

account.isEmpty()

Returns a Boolean determining if the account is empty.

account.isContract()

Returns a Boolean deteremining if the account is a contract.

account.serialize()

Returns the RLP serialization of the account as a Buffer.

account.toJSON([object])

Returns the account as JSON.

  • object - A Boolean that defaults to false. If object is true then this will return an Object, else it will return an Array.

account.getCode(trie, cb)

Fetches the code from the trie.

  • trie - The trie storing the accounts.
  • cb - The callback.

account.setCode(trie, code, cb)

Stores the code in the trie.

  • trie - The trie storing the accounts.
  • code - A Buffer.
  • cb - The callback.

Example for getCode and setCode:

// Requires manual merkle-patricia-tree install
const SecureTrie = require('merkle-patricia-tree/secure')
const Account = require('./index.js').default
 
let code = Buffer.from(
  '73095e7baea6a6c7c4c2dfeb977efac326af552d873173095e7baea6a6c7c4c2dfeb977efac326af552d873157',
  'hex',
)
 
let raw = {
  nonce: '',
  balance: '0x03e7',
  stateRoot: '0x56e81f171bcc55a6ff8345e692c0f86e5b48e01b996cadc001622fb5e363b421',
  codeHash: '0xb30fb32201fe0486606ad451e1a61e2ae1748343cd3d411ed992ffcc0774edd4',
}
 
let account = new Account(raw)
let trie = new SecureTrie()
 
account.setCode(trie, code, function(err, codeHash) {
  console.log(`Code with hash 0x${codeHash.toString('hex')} set to trie`)
  account.getCode(trie, function(err, code) {
    console.log(`Code ${code.toString('hex')} read from trie`)
  })
})

account.getStorage(trie, key, cb)

Fetches key from the account's storage.

account.setStorage(trie, key, val, cb)

Stores a val at the key in the contract's storage.

Example for getStorage and setStorage:

// Requires manual merkle-patricia-tree install
const SecureTrie = require('merkle-patricia-tree/secure')
const Account = require('./index.js').default
 
let raw = {
  nonce: '',
  balance: '0x03e7',
  stateRoot: '0x56e81f171bcc55a6ff8345e692c0f86e5b48e01b996cadc001622fb5e363b421',
  codeHash: '0xb30fb32201fe0486606ad451e1a61e2ae1748343cd3d411ed992ffcc0774edd4',
}
 
let account = new Account(raw)
let trie = new SecureTrie()
 
let key = Buffer.from('0000000000000000000000000000000000000000', 'hex')
let value = Buffer.from('01', 'hex')
 
account.setStorage(trie, key, value, function(err, value) {
  account.getStorage(trie, key, function(err, value) {
    console.log(`Value ${value.toString('hex')} set and retrieved from trie.`)
  })
})
