Package containing some low-level utils useful for everyday coding with Substrate and web3.
Provides neat and no-extra-dependencies tools to interact with Substrate and Ethereum addresses, strings (utf8 and utf16 encoding/decoding) and more.
For example, Address doesn't depend on Polkadot libraries, WASM, and even ethers.js.
Minified version of address.js weights just 8 Kb with all hashing and crypto being bundled in.
And there is no WASM at all when you need just check or convert an address.
Zero dependencies. Definitely typed. Works in browser and Node.js.
Address object provide several tools for Substrate and Ethereum addresses.
Like checking, validating, mirroring, boxing and unboxing, formatting and capitalizing.
import {Address} from '@unique-nft/utils'
// or
// import {Address} from '@unique-nft/utils/address'
// or
// import {extract} from '@unique-nft/utils/address'
Address.is.ethereumAddressObject({Ethereum: '0xf8cC75F76d46c3b1c5F270Fe06c8FFdeAB8E5eaB'}) //true
Address.validate.substrateAddress('5HgvUDiRm5yjRSrrG9B6q6km7KLzkXMxvFLHPZpA13pmwCJQ') // true
Address.mirror.substrateToEthereum('5HgvUDiRm5yjRSrrG9B6q6km7KLzkXMxvFLHPZpA13pmwCJQ') // 0xf8cC75F76d46c3b1c5F270Fe06c8FFdeAB8E5eaB
Address.collection.idToAddress(105) // '0x17c4e6453CC49aaaAEAcA894e6d9683E00000069'
Address.nesting.idsToAddress(10, 5) // '0xf8238CcffF8eD887463Fd5e00000000a00000005'

Address.extract.addressForScanNormalized('yGJMj5z32dpBUigGVFgatC382Ti3FNVSKyfgi87UF7f786MJL') // 5HgvUDiRm5yjRSrrG9B6q6km7KLzkXMxvFLHPZpA13pmwCJQ
Address.extract.addressForScanNormalized('0xf8cC75F76d46c3b1c5F270Fe06c8FFdeAB8E5eaB') // 0xf8cc75f76d46c3b1c5f270fe06c8ffdeab8e5eabAnd much more! Mirroring, packing/unpacking CrossAccountId in different formats, guessing address types and more.
Also, encoding, decoding and formatting Substrate addresses without WASM or any heavy libraries.

StringUtils provides tools to encode/decode UTF-8 and UTF-16 strings and to pack/unpack hex strings.
import {Utf8, Utf16, HexString} from '@unique-nft/utils/string'
// or import just all in one entry point:
// import {StringUtils} from '@unique-nft/utils'
Utf8.stringToU8a('a 🌷') // Uint8Array [97, 32, 240, 159, 140, 183]
Utf8.u8aToString([97, 32, 240, 159, 140, 183]) // "a 🌷" // it takes usual number arrays too
Utf8.hexStringToString('0x6120f09f8cb7') // "a 🌷"
Utf8.stringToHexString('a 🌷') // "0x6120f09f8cb7"
Utf8.lengthInBytes('a 🌷') // 6

A tiny (0.5 Kb) and zero-dependency module to detect whether metamask extension presents, detect whether the access is granted and get account(s) or request access.
Node.js-safe, it will not throw unexpected errors like "cannot find window".
Also, these methods are safe in a common way, they don't throw errors,
but return wrapped result or error with additional info.
The ExtensionsTools, Ethereum and Polkadot modules should be imported directly from
@unique-nft/utils/extension because they are not available at @unique-nft/utils.
For Ethereum browser extensions, like metamask:
import {ExtensionTools} from '@unique-nft/utils/extension'
const Ethereum = ExtensionTools.Ethereum
//or
import {Ethereum} from '@unique-nft/utils/extension'
const {address, chainId} = await Ethereum.getAccounts()
const {result, error} = await Ethereum.getAccountsSafe()
// or
const {address, chainId} = await Ethereum.requestAccounts()
const {result, error} = await Ethereum.requestAccountsSafe()
// or
const {address, chainId} = await Ethereum.getOrRequestAccounts(boolean) // true - resuest, false - get
const {result, error} = await Ethereum.getOrRequestAccountsSafe(boolean) // true - resuest, false - get
//subscribe on chainId or SelectedAddress changes:
const unsubscribe = Ethereum.subscribeOnChanges(({reason, address, chainId}) => {/*...*/})Also, Ethereum extension tool provide some helpers to work with Unique chains.
All this helpers have all 4 chains, so every helper can be used for unique, quartz, opal and sapphire.
import {Ethereum, UniqueChainName} from '@unique-nft/utils/extension'
Ethereum.currentChainIs.opal() // boolean
Ethereum.currentChainIs.byName('opal') // boolean
Ethereum.currentChainIs.byName(UniqueChainName.opal) // boolean
Ethereum.addChain.quartz()
Ethereum.addChain.byName('quartz')
Ethereum.addChain.byName(UniqueChainName.quartz)
Ethereum.switchChainTo.unique()
Ethereum.switchChainTo.byName('unique')
Ethereum.switchChainTo.byName(UniqueChainName.unique)
Ethereum.chainNameToChainId.unique // 8880
Ethereum.chainIdToChainName[8881] // quartz
// non-related with extension helpers
Ethereum.parseEthersTxReceipt(txReceipt) // unstableMore complex example, when we want to request user to grant access.
If user has already granted access, it will work silently, just like getAccounts.
import {Ethereum} from '@unique-nft/utils/extension'
import {IEthereumExtensionError} from './ethereum'
try {
const {address, chainId} = await Ethereum.requgestAccounts()
let provider = new ethers.providers.Web3Provider(window.ethereum)
console.log(ethers.utils.formatEther(await provider.getBalance(result.selectedAddress)))
} catch (e: IEthereumExtensionError) {
/* note:
if we call Ethereum.getAccounts(), there may be one more type of error:
if (e.needToRequestAccess){
alert(`Please, grant access to your account`)
await Ethereum.requestAccounts()
}
*/
if (e.extensionNotFound) {
alert(`Please install some ethereum browser extension`)
} else if (e.userRejected) {
alert(`But whyyyyyyy?`)
} else {
alert(`Connection to ethereum extension failed: ${e.message}`)
}
}A tiny (1.5 Kb) and zero-dependency (no WASM, no anything) module to work with Polkadot extensions family -
Polkadot.js, Subwallet, Talisman and other Polkadot.js-compatible wallets.
Actually it's a neat and really useful replacement for the extension-dapp module.
This module works in browsers with multiple wallets, it can detect whether there is an extension installed and contains the boilerplate logic around detecting wallets, it's access and so on.
Node.js-safe, it will not throw unexpected errors like "cannot find window".
Also, these methods are safe in a common way, they don't throw errors,
but return wrapped result or error with additional info.
The ExtensionsTools, Ethereum and Polkadot modules should be imported directly
from @unique-nft/utils/extension because they are not available at @unique-nft/utils.
import {ExtensionTools} from '@unique-nft/utils/extension'
//or
import {Polkadot} from '@unique-nft/utils/extension'
try {
const result = await Polkadot.enableAndLoadAllWallets()
result.accounts[0].address // string
} catch(e) {
if (e.extensionNotFound) {
alert(`Please install some polkadot.js compatible extension`)
} else if (e.accountsNotFound) {
if (e.userHasWalletsButHasNoAccounts) {
alert(`Please, create an account in your wallet`)
} else if (e.userHasBlockedAllWallets) {
alert(`Please, grant access to at least one of your accounts`)
await Polkadot.requestAccounts()
}
} else {
alert(`Connection to polkadot extension failed: ${e.message}`)
}
}Also, it contains ready signer object for the Unique SDK:
import {Polkadot} from '@unique-nft/utils/extension'
import {Sdk} from '@unique-nft/sdk'
const {accounts} = await Polkadot.enableAndLoadAllWallets() // Some checks are omitted
const account = accounts[0] // For the simplicity
const sdk = new Sdk({
baseUrl: 'https://rest.opal.uniquenetwork.dev/v1',
signer: account.signer
})
// or provide it (or override default one) on demand with specific request:
const sdkWithoutSigner = new Sdk({baseUrl: 'https://rest.opal.uniquenetwork.dev/v1'})
const result = await sdkWithoutSigner.balance.transfer.submitWaitResult({
amount: 1,
address: account.address,
destination: "5..." // some another address
}, {
signer: account.signer
})enableAndLoadAllWallets and loadEnabledWallets return such result:
export interface IPolkadotExtensionLoadWalletsResult {
wallets: IPolkadotExtensionWallet[]
accounts: IPolkadotExtensionAccount[]
rejectedWallets: Array<IPolkadotExtensionWalletInfo & {
error: Error

}>
}
export type IPolkadotExtensionLoadWalletsError = Error & {
extensionNotFound: boolean
accountsNotFound: boolean
userHasWalletsButHasNoAccounts: boolean
userHasBlockedAllWallets: boolean
