• new Account([data])
• Account Properties
• Account Methods
  • account.isEmpty()
  • account.isContract()
  • account.serialize()

new Account([data])

Creates a new account object

• data - an account can be initialized with either a buffer containing the RLP serialized account. Or an Array of buffers relating to each of the account Properties, listed in order below. For example:

var raw = [ 
  '0x02', //nonce
  '0x0384', //balance
  '0x56e81f171bcc55a6ff8345e692c0f86e5b48e01b996cadc001622fb5e363b421', //stateRoot
  '0xc5d2460186f7233c927e7db2dcc703c0e500b653ca82273b7bfad8045d85a470'  //codeHash
  ];

var account = new Account(raw);

Or lastly an Object containing the Properties of the account:

var raw = {
  nonce: '',
  balance: '0x03e7',
  stateRoot: '0x56e81f171bcc55a6ff8345e692c0f86e5b48e01b996cadc001622fb5e363b421',
  codeHash: '0xc5d2460186f7233c927e7db2dcc703c0e500b653ca82273b7bfad8045d85a470'
};

var account = new Account(raw);

For Object and Array each of the elements can either be a Buffer, hex String, Number, or an object with a toBuffer method such as Bignum.

Account Properties

• nonce - The account's nonce.
• balance - The account's balance in wei.
• stateRoot - The stateRoot for the storage of the contract.
• codeHash - The hash of the code of the contract.

Account Methods

account.isEmpty()

Returns a Boolean determining if the account is empty.

account.isContract()

Returns a Boolean deteremining if the account is a contract.

account.serialize()

Returns the RLP serialization of the account as a Buffer.

account.toJSON([object])

Returns the account as JSON.

• object - A Boolean that defaults to false. If object is true then this will return an Object, else it will return an Array.

account.getCode(trie, cb)

Fetches the code from the trie.

• trie - The trie storing the accounts.
• cb - The callback.

account.setCode(trie, code, cb)

Stores the code in the trie.

• trie - The trie storing the accounts.
• code - A Buffer.
• cb - The callback.

account.getStorage(trie, key, cb)

Fetches key from the account's storage.

account.setStorage(trie, key, val, cb)

Stores a val at the key in the contract's storage.
