Bitcoin address form validation JavaScript and PHP


I've seen a few Bitcoin Address form validation scripts for various languages, but surprisingly can't really find anything for two common web languages, Javascript and PHP.

Here's one for Python, but is there one for PHP and/or JS?

from hashlib import sha256

digits58 = '123456789ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz'

def decode_base58(bc, length):
    n = 0
    for char in bc:
        n = n * 58 + digits58.index(char)
    return n.to_bytes(length, 'big')

def check_bc(bc):
    bcbytes = decode_base58(bc, 25)
    return bcbytes[-4:] == sha256(sha256(bcbytes[:-4]).digest()).digest()[:4]

if __name__ == '__main__':
    bc = '1AGNa15ZQXAZUgFiqJ2i7Z2DPU2J6hW62i'
    assert check_bc(bc)
    assert not check_bc( bc.replace('N', 'P', 1) )
    assert check_bc('1111111111111111111114oLvT2')
    assert check_bc("17NdbrSGoUotzeGCcMMCqnFkEvLymoou9j")

Solution

  • Here's a JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/timrpeterson/XsCQq/2/

    And here's the full code upon which the JSFiddle is based:

    <html>

    <div id="text">
    </div>
    
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var address = "1Eym7pyJcaambv8FG4ZoU8A4xsiL9us2zz";
    if (check(address)) {
        document.getElementById('text').innerHTML += "valid";
    } else {
        document.getElementById('text').innerHTML += "invalid";
    }
    
    
    function check(address) {
      var decoded = base58_decode(address);     
      if (decoded.length != 25) return false;
    
      var cksum = decoded.substr(decoded.length - 4); 
      var rest = decoded.substr(0, decoded.length - 4);  
    
      var good_cksum = hex2a(sha256_digest(hex2a(sha256_digest(rest)))).substr(0, 4);
    
      if (cksum != good_cksum) return false;
      return true;
    }
    
    function base58_decode(string) {
      var table = '123456789ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz';
      var table_rev = new Array();
    
      var i;
      for (i = 0; i < 58; i++) {
        table_rev[table[i]] = int2bigInt(i, 8, 0);
      } 
    
      var l = string.length;
      var long_value = int2bigInt(0, 1, 0);  
    
      var num_58 = int2bigInt(58, 8, 0);
    
      var c;
      for(i = 0; i < l; i++) {
        c = string[l - i - 1];
        long_value = add(long_value, mult(table_rev[c], pow(num_58, i)));
      }
    
      var hex = bigInt2str(long_value, 16);  
    
      var str = hex2a(hex);

      var output = str;
      if (nPad > 0) output = repeat("\0", nPad) + str;
    
      return output;
    }
    
    function hex2a(hex) {
        var str = '';
        for (var i = 0; i < hex.length; i += 2)

        var nBuf;
        var strBuf;
        var strOut = "";
        for (var i = 0; i < l; i++) {

          strBuf = aHex[Math.floor(nBuf/16)];
          strBuf += aHex[nBuf % 16];
          strOut += strBuf;
        }
        return strOut;
    }
    
    function pow(big, exp) {
        if (exp == 0) return int2bigInt(1, 1, 0);
        var i;
        var newbig = big;
        for (i = 1; i < exp; i++) {

    }
    
    function repeat(s, n){
        var a = [];
        while(a.length < n){
            a.push(s);
        }
        return a.join('');
    }
    </script>
    </body>
    </html>
    

    And here is a PHP example (assuming your have PHP BC-Math):

    <?php
    
    function checkAddress($address)
    {
        $origbase58 = $address;
        $dec = "0";
    
        for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($address); $i++)
        {
            $dec = bcadd(bcmul($dec,"58",0),strpos("123456789ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz",substr($address,$i,1)),0);
        }
    
        $address = "";
    
        while (bccomp($dec,0) == 1)
        {
            $dv = bcdiv($dec,"16",0);
            $rem = (integer)bcmod($dec,"16");
            $dec = $dv;
            $address = $address.substr("0123456789ABCDEF",$rem,1);
        }
    
        $address = strrev($address);
    
        for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($origbase58) && substr($origbase58,$i,1) == "1"; $i++)
        {
            $address = "00".$address;
        }
    
        if (strlen($address)%2 != 0)
        {
            $address = "0".$address;
        }
    
        if (strlen($address) != 50)
        {
            return false;
        }
    
        if (hexdec(substr($address,0,2)) > 0)
        {
            return false;
        }
    
        return substr(strtoupper(hash("sha256",hash("sha256",pack("H*",substr($address,0,strlen($address)-8)),true))),0,8) == substr($address,strlen($address)-8);
    }
    
    ?>
