Tronlink unrecognized PK format
Hello, Sirs
It's dublicate of issue #75 When we use older version it give a PK in format:
TRX Privkey: 1MmbZJRoHKX75mC2neUGimxvsZyZpf6KBxoNDVxogH3kevW424
It's not base58, from commit it was fixed:
if (strncmp(ticker, "TRX", 3) == 0) {
// For tron, output hex string for private key
char *buf = BN_bn2hex(EC_KEY_get0_private_key(pkey));
strcpy(privkey_buf, buf);
if (buf) OPENSSL_free(buf);
}
I'm asking for a hint how to convert previously generated format PK into hex one, which is acceptable for tronlink. I think many people, especially on windows struggling to convert.
I tried on fast hand in this way, but it's not correct:
const bs58 = require('bs58');
const { ec: EC } = require('elliptic');
const arrayToHex = (uint8Array) =>
Array.from(uint8Array)
.map((byte) => byte.toString(16).padStart(2, '0'))
.join('');
function convertBase58ToHex(base58Key) {
const privateKeyBytes = bs58.decode(base58Key);
const privateKeyHex = privateKeyBytes.slice(1, -4);
return arrayToHex(privateKeyHex);
}
const privateKeyBase58 = '1oqSVtJJBpWKpRwpqeuSKvb7v39RwJYCdZQj6Fuw2hkg9Xipek';
const privateKeyHex = convertBase58ToHex(privateKeyBase58);
console.log(privateKeyHex);
//result should be a PK of TXXXGFPPqUHy6X4kcD6gcyAqtjyozYsgqa address, but it's private key from another address
