@portal-hq/tron-protobuf-module v1.0.3

Description

This repo is used to create JS/TS modules for interacting with Tron protobufs.

The tronweb node module has methods that can be used to deserialize raw data based on the tron protobuf definition, however these methods were previously not exposed. Version 6.0.3 exposes tronWeb.utils.transaction.DeserializeTransaction() method, however it only supports 7 different contract types right now, and most importantly does not support TransferContract type which is used for native TRX transfers.
