The EventId class can be called in order to construct event ids, although this is not necessary when building Event objects as it will be done automatically at that time.

Upon instantiation the following content are passed to the class instance to generate the event ID: public_key, created_at, kind, tags and content. For more information about these individual objects please refer to the relevant sections: Keys, Timestamp, Kind and Tag, respectively.

    print("  Build Event ID:")
    event_id = EventId(keys.public_key(), Timestamp.now(), Kind(1), [], "content")
    print(f"     - {event_id}")

Once we have an event id object we are able to format and parse this using a few simple methods. To present as a hex, bech32, nostr uri or as bytes we need only call the relevant methods to_hex(), to_bech32(), to_nostr_uri() or to_bytes(). Similarly, we can parse these different representations of the event ID by using the opposite 'from' methods: from_hex(), from_bech32(), from_nostr_uri() or from_bytes().

In the event that we want to generalise and simplify this process, across hex/bech32 or nostr uri formats, we can instead simply call parse() method and pass this the event id string matching one of these formats.

For more information/examples on the formatting of Nostr objects please refer to NIP-19 and NIP-21.

    # To Hex and then Parse
    print("  Event ID (hex):")
    event_id_hex = event_id.to_hex()
    print(f"     - Hex: {event_id_hex}")
    print(f"     - Parse: {EventId.parse(event_id_hex)}")
    print(f"     - From Hex: {EventId.from_hex(event_id_hex)}")

    # To Bech32 and then Parse
    print("  Event ID (bech32):")
    event_id_bech32 = event_id.to_bech32()
    print(f"     - Bech32: {event_id_bech32}")
    print(f"     - Parse: {EventId.parse(event_id_bech32)}")
    print(f"     - From Bech32: {EventId.from_bech32(event_id_bech32)}")

    # To Nostr URI and then Parse
    print("  Event ID (nostr uri):")
    event_id_nostr_uri = event_id.to_nostr_uri()
    print(f"     - Nostr URI: {event_id_nostr_uri}")
    print(f"     - Parse: {EventId.parse(event_id_nostr_uri)}")
    print(f"     - From Nostr URI: {EventId.from_nostr_uri(event_id_nostr_uri)}")

    # As Bytes and then Parse
    print("  Event ID (bytes):")
    event_id_bytes = event_id.as_bytes()
    print(f"     - Bytes: {event_id_bytes}")
    print(f"     - From Bytes: {EventId.from_bytes(event_id_bytes)}")

In addition to directly creating/manipulating event ID objects we can also easily access these directly from events, by calling the id() method on and instance of the Event class, or, verify that the event id (and signature) for an event is valid, by using the verify() method.

    # Event ID from Event & Verfiy
    print("  Event ID from Event & Verify:")
    event = EventBuilder.text_note("This is a note", []).to_event(keys)
    print(f"     - Event ID: {event.id()}")
    print(f"     - Verify the ID & Signature: {event.verify()}")
