Learn about the splitSignature utils method
Introduction
The splitSignature method is used to split an Ethereum signature hex string into separate parts. The signature must be in a specific format for this method to work.
Usage
This method should be used when you want to split a compact Ethereum signature into its individual components. This can be useful when working with Ethereum signatures in your code, as it allows you to extract the relevant values from a signature for further processing.
Here's a simple code example to demonstrate how to use this method:
const { Utils } = require("alchemy-sdk");
// Flat-format; this is the format provided by JSON-RPC responses
let flatSig =
"0x0ba9770fd8778383f6d56faadc71e17b75f0d6e3ff0a408d5e6c4cee3bd70a16" +
"3574da0ebfb1eaac261698b057b342e52ea53f85287272cea471a4cda41e3466" +
"1b";
let expandedSig = Utils.splitSignature(flatSig);
console.log(expandedSig);
// {
// r: "0x0ba9770fd8778383f6d56faadc71e17b75f0d6e3ff0a408d5e6c4cee3bd70a16",
// s: "0x3574da0ebfb1eaac261698b057b342e52ea53f85287272cea471a4cda41e3466",
// recoveryParam: 0,
// v: 27
// }
