Interface: Chunk

Defined in: core-sdk/src/chunk/cac.ts:25

Content Addressed Chunk (CAC) - the immutable building block of Swarm, holding at most 4096 bytes of payload.

• span indicates the size of the payload in bytes.
• payload contains the actual data or the body of the chunk.
• data contains the full chunk data - span and payload.
• address is the Swarm hash (or reference) of the chunk.

The toSingleOwnerChunk method allows converting the CAC into a Single Owner Chunk (SOC).
