decodeAbiParameters #

Decodes ABI encoded data using the ABI specification, given a set of ABI parameters (inputs/outputs) and the encoded ABI data.

The decodeAbiParameters function is used by the other contract decoding utilities (ie. decodeFunctionData, decodeEventLog, etc).

Install #

import { decodeAbiParameters } from 'viem'

Usage #

The decodeAbiParameters function takes in two parameters:

• a set of ABI Parameters (params), that can be in the shape of the inputs or outputs attribute of an ABI Item.
• the ABI encoded data (data) that correspond to the given params.

import { decodeAbiParameters } from 'viem'

const values = decodeAbiParameters(
  [{ name: 'x', type: 'uint32' }],
  '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000010f2c',
)
// [69420]

Return Value #

The decoded data. Type is inferred from the ABI.

Parameters #

params #

• Type: AbiParameter[]

The set of ABI parameters to decode against data, in the shape of the inputs or outputs attribute of an ABI event/function.

These parameters must include valid ABI types.

const values = decodeAbiParameters(
  [{ name: 'x', type: 'uint32' }], 
  '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000010f2c',
)

data #

• Type: Hex

The ABI encoded data.

const values = decodeAbiParameters(
  [{ name: 'x', type: 'uint32' }],
  '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000010f2c', 
)
