Struct Address 

pub struct Address {
    pub address_string: String,
    pub public_key_hash: [u8; 20],
    pub network: Network,
}

A Bitcoin P2PKH address.

Contains the 20-byte public key hash and the network it belongs to. Can be serialized to/from the Base58Check string format.

Fields

address_string: String

The human-readable Base58Check address string.

public_key_hash: [u8; 20]

The 20-byte RIPEMD-160(SHA-256(pubkey)) hash.

network: Network

The network this address belongs to.

Implementations

impl Address

pub fn from_string(addr: &str) -> Result<Self, ScriptError>

Parse a Base58Check-encoded address string.

Decodes the string, validates the checksum, and detects the network from the version byte (0x00 = mainnet, 0x6f = testnet).

Arguments

• addr - The Base58Check address string.

Returns

An Address or an error if the string is invalid.

pub fn from_public_key_hash(hash: &[u8; 20], network: Network) -> Self

Create an address from a 20-byte public key hash.

Arguments

• hash - The 20-byte hash160 of the public key.
• network - The target network (Mainnet or Testnet).

Returns

A new Address with the encoded Base58Check string.

pub fn from_public_key_string( pub_key_hex: &str, mainnet: bool, ) -> Result<Self, ScriptError>

Create a mainnet address from a hex-encoded public key string.

Computes hash160 of the decoded public key bytes and produces a mainnet address.

Arguments

• pub_key_hex - Hex-encoded public key (compressed or uncompressed).

Returns

A mainnet Address, or an error if the hex is invalid.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for Address

fn clone(&self) -> Address

Returns a duplicate of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for Address

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Display for Address

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Display the address as its Base58Check string.

impl PartialEq for Address

fn eq(&self, other: &Address) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
