Summary of ognus/wallet-address-validator

The ognus/wallet-address-validator is a JavaScript-based utility that allows for the validation of Bitcoin and altcoin addresses on several different cryptocurrencies’ networks. It provides methods to validate an address, detect an address' type (segwit, bech32, p2sh) and detect the network (mainnet, testnet).

The supported cryptocurrencies are:

Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin Testnet
Litecoin (LTC)
Dogecoin (DOGE)
Bech32 format coins (BTC, LTC, DOGE)

This script could be extremely useful for cryptocurrency applications or wallets to ensure that the addresses are valid before any transactions are made.

Its usage is simple and direct, after installation via npm, one could use it as follows:

var WAValidator = require('wallet-address-validator');

var valid = WAValidator.validate('1KFzzGtDdnq5hrwxXGjwVnKzRbvf8WVxck', 'BTC');
if(valid)
    console.log('This is a valid address');
else
    console.log('Address INVALID');

In the code snippet above, the method WAValidator.validate() takes two arguments, the address and the cryptocurrency, and returns if the address is valid or not.

To use the package the wallet-address-validator may need to be installed via npm, using the command npm install wallet-address-validator.
