Description

This is a JavaScript library for convering a Status chat key ot a chat name.

Details

It uses the Linear-Feedback Shift Register algorithm on the 8 least significant bytes of the X of ECDSA public key.

Building

You can update the contents of dist folder by running:

yarn test
yarn build

Usage

The library exports just one method:

const StatusIm = require('./dist/status-chat-name.js')

let chatKey = '0x040bc5bdbd8edf82962b191e80541d7ca8868920b1b415fcd999d6bd723cbbcff17f34e1e6e0484c11d9c7c63b164878a6da3173a49ceaf5fea2faac98928f8a47'

let chatName = StatusIm.chatKeyToChatName(chatKey)

if (chatName != 'Defensive Impartial Impala') {
  throw new Error('FAIL!')
}
