# lethean-util
CryptoNote node utility for Lethean — address generation, validation, and block/transaction processing.
This is Lethean's equivalent of `cryptoforknote-util`. It's a C++ native Node.js addon that links against the Lethean blockchain source tree.
## Install
```bash
npm install
# Requires: cmake, g++, libboost-all-dev
# The native addon links against ../blockchain/src/ via the Lethean symlink
```
## Usage
```javascript
var cn = require('lethean-util');
// Validate address
var decoded = cn.address_decode(Buffer.from('iTHNUNiuu3VP...'));
// Get block hash
var hash = cn.get_pow_hash(blockBlob);
// Convert block blob
var converted = cn.convert_blob(blockBlob);
```
