Philosophy

This module is a set of small, dependency-free utilities used across the other packages. It is intentionally generic — nothing here knows about Ethereum, chains, or transactions. Pure, side-effect-free, no third-party runtime dependencies. No new dependencies in @ethernauta/utils is a hard rule of the monorepo.

API

Hex ↔ bytes

import { bytes_to_hex, hex_to_bytes, strip_hex_prefix } from "@ethernauta/utils"

const hex = bytes_to_hex(new Uint8Array([0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef])) // "0xdeadbeef"
const bytes = hex_to_bytes("0xdeadbeef")                            // Uint8Array
const stripped = strip_hex_prefix("0xdeadbeef")                     // "deadbeef"

Hex ↔ number

import { hex_to_number, number_to_hex } from "@ethernauta/utils"

const hex = number_to_hex(255)  // "0xff"
const value = hex_to_number("0xff") // 255

Bytes ↔ unsigned integer

import { bytes_to_uint } from "@ethernauta/utils"

const n = bytes_to_uint(new Uint8Array([0x01, 0x00])) // 256n

RLP encoding

import { rlp_encode, type RlpInput } from "@ethernauta/utils"

const encoded = rlp_encode([
  new Uint8Array([0x01]),
  new Uint8Array([0x02, 0x03]),
])

Wei ↔ string formatting

import {
  format_ether, format_gwei, format_unit,
  parse_ether, parse_gwei, parse_unit,
} from "@ethernauta/utils"

format_ether(1_000_000_000_000_000_000n)  // "1"
format_gwei(2_000_000_000n)               // "2"
format_unit(123_456n, 4)                  // "12.3456"

parse_ether("1.5")                         // 1500000000000000000n
parse_gwei("2")                            // 2000000000n
parse_unit("12.34", 4)                     // 123400n

Time helpers

import { seconds_to_big, now_to_big, deadline_in } from "@ethernauta/utils"

const now = now_to_big()                        // BigInt seconds since epoch
const in_one_minute = deadline_in(60)           // now + 60
const ms_as_bigint = seconds_to_big(30)         // 30n

Case conversion

import { camel_to_kebab } from "@ethernauta/utils"

camel_to_kebab("transferFrom") // "transfer-from"

Type narrowing — invariant

import { invariant } from "@ethernauta/utils"

const input: string | null = "helloWorld"
invariant(typeof input === "string", "input must be a string")
// input is narrowed to `string` from here on
