Interface Block<T, C, A, V>

Represents an IPLD block (including its CID) that can be decoded to data of type T.

interface Block<
    T = unknown,
    C extends number = number,
    A extends number = number,
    V extends Version = 1,
> {
    bytes: ByteView<T>;
    cid: Link<T, C, A, V>;
}

Type Parameters

T = unknown
Logical type of the data encoded in the block
C extends number = number
multicodec code corresponding to codec used to encode the block
A extends number = number
multicodec code corresponding to the hashing algorithm used in CID creation.
V extends Version = 1
CID version
