_section: AbiCoder @<AbiCoder> @SRC<abi:class.AbiCoder>
|
||
|
|
||
|
The **AbiCoder** is a collection of Coders which can be used to
|
||
|
encode and decode the binary data formats used to interoperate
|
||
|
between the EVM and higher level libraries.
|
||
|
|
||
|
Most developers will never need to use this class directly, since
|
||
|
the [[Interface]] class greatly simplifies these operations.
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
_subsection: Creating Instance @<AbiCoder--creating>
|
||
|
|
||
|
For the most part, there should never be a need to manually create
|
||
|
an instance of an [[AbiCoder]], since one is created with the
|
||
|
default coersion function when the library is loaded which can
|
||
|
be used universally.
|
||
|
|
||
|
This is likely only needed by those with specific needs to override
|
||
|
how values are coerced after they are decoded from their binary format.
|
||
|
|
||
|
_property: new ethers.utils.AbiCoder([coerceFunc]) @SRC<abi:constructor.AbiCoder>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Create a new AbiCoder instance, which will call the //coerceFunc// on every
|
||
|
decode, where the result of the call will be used in the Result.
|
||
|
|
||
|
The function signature is `(type, value)`, where the //type// is the string
|
||
|
describing the type and the //value// is the processed value from the underlying
|
||
|
Coder.
|
||
|
|
||
|
If the callback throws, the Result will contain a property that when accessed will
|
||
|
throw, allowing for higher level libraries to recover from data errors.
|
||
|
|
||
|
_property: ethers.utils.defaultAbiCoder => [[AbiCoder]]
|
||
|
|
||
|
An [[AbiCoder]] created when the library is imported which is used by
|
||
|
the [[Interface]].
|
||
|
|
||
|
_subsection: Coding Methods @<AbiCoder--methods>
|
||
|
|
||
|
_property: abiCoder.encode(types, values) => string<[[DataHexString]]> @<AbiCoder-encode> @SRC<abi/abi-coder>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Encode the array //values// according the array of //types//, each of which may be a
|
||
|
string or a [[ParamType]].
|
||
|
|
||
|
_property: abiCoder.decode(types, data) => [[Result]] @<AbiCoder-decode> @SRC<abi/abi-coder>
|
||
|
|
||
|
Decode the //data// according to the array of //types//, each of which may be a
|
||
|
string or [[ParamType]].
