Decode QR Code

Decodes a base64-encoded jpeg to a UTF-8 string. POST only.

Request:

• requestType is decodeQRCode

• qrCodeBase64 is a base64-encoded jpeg string to be decoded

Response

• qrCodeData (S) is a UTF-8 string containing the decoded data from the base64 string

• requestProcessingTime (N) is the API request processing time (in millisec)

Example: Refer to Decode QR Code example.

Detect Mime Type

Gets the mime type of uploaded file or data.

Request:

• requestType is detectMimeType

• data is the data (optional)

• file is the pathname of a data file to upload (optional if data provided)

• filename is a filename to associate with data (optional if file uploaded in which case the uploaded filename is always used)

• isText is false if data is a hex string (optional)

Response

• type (S) is the mime type

• requestProcessingTime (N) is the API request processing time (in millisec)

Example: Refer to Detect Mime Type example.

Encode QR Code

Encodes a UTF-8 string to a base64-encoded jpeg. POST only.

Request:

• requestType is encodeQRCode

• qrCodeData is a UTF-8 text string to be encoded

• width is the width of the output image (optional)

• height is the height of the output image (optional)

Response

• qrCodeBase64 (S) is a base64 string encoding a jpeg image of the QR code

• requestProcessingTime (N) is the API request processing time (in millisec)

Example: Refer to Encode QR Code example.

Full Hash To Id

Converts a full hash to an ID.

Request:

• requestType is fullHashToId

• fullHash is the full hash 64-digit (32-byte) hex string

Response:

• stringId (S) is the ID corresponding to the hash, in the form of an decimal string

• longId (S) is the signed long integer (8-bytes) representation of the ID used internally, returned as a string

• requestProcessingTime (N) is the API request processing time (in millisec)

Example: Refer to Full Hash To Id example.

Hash

Calculates the hash of a secret for use in phased transactions with voting model 5 (Vote By Secret).

Request:

• requestType is hash

• hashAlgorithm is the hash function used: 2 for SHA256, 3 for SHA3, 5 for SCRYPT, 6 for RIPEMD160, 25 for Keccack25 and 62 for SHA256 followed by RIPEMD160, according to Get Constants​

• secret is a secret phrase in text form or hex string form

• secretIsText is true if secret is text, false if it is a hex string (optional)

Note: secret is converted from a hex string to a byte array, which is what the hash algorithm expects, unless secretIsText is true, in which case secret is first converted from text to a UTF-8 hex string as by Hex Convert.

Response:

• hash (S) is the hash of the secret, in the form of a hex string

• requestProcessingTime (N) is the API request processing time (in millisec)

Example: Refer to Hash example.

Hex Convert

Converts a text string into a UTF-8 hex string and if the text input is already a hex string, also into text.

Request:

• requestType is hexConvert

• string is a text string, possibly a hex string

Response:

• binary (S) is the converted UTF-8 hex string

• text (S) is a text string converted from string if it is a valid UTF-8 hex string

• requestProcessingTime (N) is the API request processing time (in millisec)

Example: Refer to Hex Convert example.

Long Convert

Converts an ID to the signed long integer representation used internally.

Request:

• requestType is longConvert

• id is a numerical ID, in decimal form but equivalent to an 8-byte unsigned integer as produced by SHA-256 hashing

Response:

• stringId (S) is the numerical ID

• longId (S) is the signed long integer (8-bytes) representation of the ID used internally, returned as a string

• requestProcessingTime (N) is the API request processing time (in millisec)

Note: Java does not support unsigned integers, so any unsigned ID (such as a block ID) visible in the NRS client is represented internally as a signed integer.

Example: Refer to Long Convert example.

RS Convert

Get both the Reed-Solomon account address and the account number given an account ID.

Request:

• requestType is rsConvert

• account is an account ID (either RS address or number)

Response:

• accountRS (S) is the Reed-Solomon address of the account

• requestProcessingTime (N) is the API request processing time (in millisec)

• account (S) is the account number

Example: Refer to RS Convert example.
