multiformats.cid — mvxcvi/multiformats 0.2.1

CID is a self-describing content-addressed identifier. It uses cryptographic hashing to identify content, multicodec packed codes to label the content type, and multibase to encode the final identifier into a string.

ContentID cljs

create clj/s

(create codec mhash)

Construct a new v1 content identifier for a known codec type and multihash.

decode clj/s

(decode data)

Decode a content identifier from a byte array.

encode clj/s

(encode cid)

Encode a content identifier into a binary representation. Returns the byte array.

format clj/s

(format cid)

(format base cid)

Format a CID into a string representation. Returns a multibase-prefixed string representing the encoded value. Uses base32 if not otherwise specified.

inspect clj/s

(inspect x)

Inspect a CID, encoded byte array, or string and return a map of information about the content identifier.

parse clj/s

(parse string)

Parse a content identifier from a base-encoded string.

read-bytes clj/s

(read-bytes data offset)

Read a content identifier from a byte array. Returns a tuple containing the CID and the number of bytes read.

write-bytes clj/s

(write-bytes cid buffer offset)

Write an encoded content identifier to a byte array at the given offset. Returns the number of bytes written.
