Learn about the toUtf8Bytes utils method.

Introduction

The toUtf8Bytes method is used to convert a string to its equivalent UTF-8 encoded byte array representation.

Usage

This method should be used when you want to convert a string to its UTF-8 encoded byte array representation. For example, you can use this method to convert the string 'Hello World' to its UTF-8 encoded byte array representation.

Here’s a simple code example to demonstrate how to use this method:

1
const { Utils } = require("alchemy-sdk");
2
3
let message = "Hello World";
4
5
let utf8Bytes = Utils.toUtf8Bytes(message); 
6
console.log(utf8Bytes); // [72, 101, 108, 108, 111, 32, 87, 111, 114, 108, 100]
