Ethereum Transaction Hash to PublicKey Node JS

Installation

$ git clone https://github.com/tinwaninja/get_public_key_eth
$ cd get_public_key_eth
$ yarn install

For example, address 0xFffFffFB5c79E42fA9Bb34f80A701872d5FA75e5 To get the publicKey from that address, it will use transaction https://etherscan.io/tx/0x4a61da70eb0e80cf54450240e1b44c5c38d9c57dcc572099bd6599694864ce87 (any out transaction)

so open index.js and change line 5 and enter the transaction hash, you need to register infura.io to get the key to access the rpc ethereum mainnet, after getting the infura key, edit the 4th line in the index.js script, after saving it then run:

$ node index.js

The result should be as follows:

address: 0xFffFffFB5c79E42fA9Bb34f80A701872d5FA75e5
publicKey: 0xab98c8dfcfa1655da5265550c34196442a5ac44882ebece9d83b817dda822a5ff040fb786d187ed0fb81d1031addadecdb97a2899c02a11f1ffd413ed465cd85

Please note that the publicKey can only be extracted on transactions EIP-1559, you can read the details of the Ethereum update in this article (meaning the transaction must be more than August 5th, 2021)
