Module forest_filecoin::shim::address

Structs

• Address
  A Filecoin address is an identifier that refers to an actor in the Filecoin state. All actors (miner actors, the storage market actor, account actors) have an address. This address encodes information about the network to which an actor belongs, the specific type of address encoding, the address payload itself, and a checksum. The goal of this format is to provide a robust address format that is both easy to use and resistant to errors.
• CurrentNetwork
  For user safety, Filecoin has different addresses for its mainnet and test networks: Mainnet and testnet addresses are prefixed with f and t, respectively.
• StrictAddress
  A Filecoin address is an identifier that refers to an actor in the Filecoin state. All actors (miner actors, the storage market actor, account actors) have an address. This address encodes information about the network to which an actor belongs, the specific type of address encoding, the address payload itself, and a checksum. The goal of this format is to provide a robust address format that is both easy to use and resistant to errors.

Enums

• Error
  Address error
• Network
  Network defines the preconfigured networks to use with address encoding
• Payload
  Payload is the data of the Address. Variants are the supported Address protocols.
• Protocol
  Protocol defines the addressing protocol used to derive data to an address

Constants

• ADDRESS_ENCODER 🔒
  defines the encoder for base32 encoding with the provided string with no padding
• LOCAL_NETWORK 🔒
• PAYLOAD_HASH_LEN
  Hash length of payload for Secp and Actor addresses.

Statics

• GLOBAL_NETWORK 🔒
• ZERO_ADDRESS
  Zero address used to avoid allowing it to be used for verification. This is intentionally disallowed because it is an edge case with Filecoin’s BLS signature verification.
