Settings API Reference ex_abi v0.5.16

Documentation for ABI, the function interface language for Solidity. Generally, the ABI describes how to take binary Ethereum and transform it to or from types that Solidity understands.

Tools for decoding event data and topics given a list of function selectors.

Module to help parse the ABI function signatures, e.g. my_function(uint64, string[]).

ABI.TypeDecoder is responsible for decoding types to the format expected by Solidity. We generally take a function selector and binary data and decode that into the original arguments according to the specification.

ABI.TypeEncoder is responsible for encoding types to the format expected by Solidity. We generally take a function selector and an array of data and encode that array according to the specification.
