base58

Base58和Base58Check实现，与比特币网络所使用的实现兼容。也可以使用任何其他替代字母表（如XRP的）。

从版本2.0.0开始 python2不再受支持，1.x系列将继续得到支持，但不会添加新功能。

命令行用法

$ printf "hello world" | base58
StV1DL6CwTryKyV

$ printf "hello world" | base58 -c
3vQB7B6MrGQZaxCuFg4oh

$ printf "3vQB7B6MrGQZaxCuFg4oh" | base58 -dc
hello world

$ printf "4vQB7B6MrGQZaxCuFg4oh" | base58 -dc
Invalid checksum

模块用法

>>> import base58
>>> base58.b58encode(b'hello world')
b'StV1DL6CwTryKyV'
>>> base58.b58decode(b'StV1DL6CwTryKyV')
b'hello world'
>>> base58.b58encode_check(b'hello world')
b'3vQB7B6MrGQZaxCuFg4oh'
>>> base58.b58decode_check(b'3vQB7B6MrGQZaxCuFg4oh')
b'hello world'
>>> base58.b58decode_check(b'4vQB7B6MrGQZaxCuFg4oh')

# Use another alphabet. Here, using the built-in XRP/Ripple alphabet.
