Expand description

Encoding and decoding of the Bech32 format

Bech32 is an encoding scheme that is easy to use for humans and efficient to encode in QR codes.

A Bech32 string consists of a human-readable part (HRP), a separator (the character '1'), and a data part. A checksum at the end of the string provides error detection to prevent mistakes when the string is written off or read out loud.

The original description in BIP-0173 has more details.

§Examples

use bech32::{self, FromBase32, ToBase32, Variant};
let encoded = bech32::encode("bech32", vec![0x00, 0x01, 0x02].to_base32(), Variant::Bech32).unwrap();
assert_eq!(encoded, "bech321qqqsyrhqy2a".to_string());
let (hrp, data, variant) = bech32::decode(&encoded).unwrap();
assert_eq!(hrp, "bech32");
assert_eq!(Vec::<u8>::from_base32(&data).unwrap(), vec![0x00, 0x01, 0x02]);
assert_eq!(variant, Variant::Bech32);

Structs§

  • Allocationless Bech32 writer that accumulates the checksum data internally and writes them out in the end.
  • Integer in the range 0..32

Enums§

  • Error types for Bech32 encoding / decoding
  • Used for encode/decode operations for the two variants of Bech32

Traits§

  • Interface to calculate the length of the base32 representation before actually serializing
  • A trait to convert between u8 arrays and u5 arrays without changing the content of the elements, but checking that they are in range.
  • Parse/convert base32 slice to Self. It is the reciprocal of ToBase32.
  • A trait for converting a value to a type T that represents a u5 slice.
  • Interface to write u5s into a sink
