Python SCALE Codec

Python SCALE Codec Library

Description

Most of the data that the Substrate RPCs output is encoded with the SCALE Codec. This codec is used by the Substrate nodes' internal runtime. In order to get to meaningful data this data will need to be decoded. The Python SCALE Codec Library will specialize in this task.

Example

RuntimeConfiguration().update_type_registry(load_type_registry_preset("default"))
RuntimeConfiguration().update_type_registry(load_type_registry_preset("kusama"))
obj = ScaleDecoder.get_decoder_class('Compact<Balance>', ScaleBytes("0x130080cd103d71bc22"))
obj.decode()
print(obj.value)
