Evmdecoder NPM

EvmDecoder

A library to fetch and decode smart contract related bytecode data from an EVM node.

EvmDecoder can determine if an address is a contract and (for supported types) return information about and/or properties of the contract. It can also decode transaction input data when provided with the respective (or matching) ABIs.

All feature requests and contributions will be considered!

Contract Identification

EvmDecoder aims to identify common types of smart contracts by matching unique function signatures in the deployed bytecode of contracts. When a contract is identified as a type of proxy, the decoder will attempt to determine the contract address and type behind the proxy recusively and classify the final contract in the proxy chain.

Types of contracts that can be identified:

Proxies: ERC897, ERC1822, ERC1967
Proxy Clones: ERC1167, ERC3448, Simple Multisig Clone
GnosisSafe
Gnosis Multisig
Diamond Proxies (ERC2535 / multi-facet proxies)
Simple Tokens (ERC20)
NFTs (ERC721)
MultiTokens (ERC1155)
FlashLoan lenders and receivers (ERC3156)
Contract Registries (ERC1820)
Offchain Resolvers (ERC3668)

How to use

yarn add evmdecoder or npm install evmdecoder to install.

    directory: './abis'
  }
})
await evmDecoder.initialize()
