potcore-message adds support for verifying and signing potcoin messages in Node.js and web browsers.

See the main potcore repo for more information.

Getting Started

npm install potcore-message

bower install potcore-message

To sign a message:

var potcore = require('potcore-lib');
var Message = require('potcore-message');

var privateKey = potcore.PrivateKey.fromWIF('cPBn5A4ikZvBTQ8D7NnvHZYCAxzDZ5Z2TSGW2LkyPiLxqYaJPBW4');
var signature = Message('hello, world').sign(privateKey);

To verify a message:

var address = 'n1ZCYg9YXtB5XCZazLxSmPDa8iwJRZHhGx';
var signature = 'H/DIn8uA1scAuKLlCx+/9LnAcJtwQQ0PmcPrJUq90aboLv3fH5fFvY+vmbfOSFEtGarznYli6ShPr9RXwY9UrIY=';
