ex_rlp v0.1.0 ExRLP
ExRLP 
Elixir implementation of Ethereum’s RLP (Recursive Length Prefix) encoding
The encoding’s specification can be found in the yellow paper or in the ethereum wiki
Installation
The easiest way to add ExRLP to your project is by using Mix.
Add :ex_rlp
as a dependency to your project’s mix.exs
:
defp deps do
[
{:ex_rlp, "~> 0.1.0"}
]
end
And run:
$ mix deps.get
Basic Usage
Use ExRLP.encode/1 method to encode an item to RLP representation. An item can be nonnegative integer, binary or list. List can contain integers, binaries or lists.
## Examples
iex(1)> "dog" |> ExRLP.encode
"83646f67"
iex(2)> 1000 |> ExRLP.encode
"8203e8"
iex(3)> [ [ [], [] ], [] ] |> ExRLP.encode
"c4c2c0c0c0"
Use ExRLP.decode/1 method to decode a rlp encoded data. All items except lists are decoded as binaries so additional deserialization is needed if initially an item of another type was encoded.
## Examples
iex(1)> "83646f67" |> ExRLP.decode
"dog"
iex(2)> "8203e8" |> ExRLP.decode |> :binary.decode_unsigned
1000
iex(3)> "c4c2c0c0c0" |> ExRLP.decode
[[[], []], []]
More example can be found in test files.
