Byte array to Hex string conversion in javascript

Question

I have a byte array of the form [4,-101,122,-41,-30,23,-28,3,..] which I want to convert in the form 6d69f597b217fa333246c2c8 I\'m using below func

Answer 1

You are missing the padding in the hex conversion. You'll want to use

function toHexString(byteArray) {
  return Array.from(byteArray, function(byte) {
    return ('0' + (byte & 0xFF).toString(16)).slice(-2);
  }).join('')
}

so that each byte transforms to exactly two hex digits. Your expected output would be 04812d7e3a9829e5d51bdd64ceb35df060699bc1309731bd6e6f1a5443a7f9ce0af4382fcfd6f5f8a08bb2619709c2d49fb771601770f2c267985af2754e1f8cf9
