equihashjs-verify

JavaScript check for valid Equihash solutions. Ported from ZCASH on Python

ZCASH implementation: https://github.com/zcash/zcash/blob/master/qa/rpc-tests/test_framework/equihash.py

Installation

npm install equihashjs-verify

Node version: >= 10. Older versions may work but not testable because mocha dropped the support.

Usage

var eq = require('equihashjs-verify')

var equihash = new eq.Equihash(eq.networks.bitcoingold)

var header = new Buffer(..., 'hex') // include nonce in the header
var solution = new Buffer(..., 'hex') // do not include byte size preamble "fd4005"

var valid = equihash.verify(header, solution)
//returns boolean

var eq = require('equihashjs-verify')

var equihash = new eq.Equihash(eq.networks.bitcoingold)

var header = new Buffer(..., 'hex') // nonce may not be included in the header
var solution = new Buffer(..., 'hex') // do not include byte size preamble "fd4005"
var nonce = new Buffer(..., 'hex')

var valid = equihash.verify(header, solution, nonce)
//returns boolean
