Transaction Schema

[phil.lewis]

So I originally posed this question in a different post discussing the New Balance coloured coins

@phil.lewis

So, if a block is a collection of transactions, which are collectively hashed to chain to the next block and a transaction contains a timestamp, input, output and amount, where does the “colour” information live? Is it another field or part of an existing field?

Is there any documentation anywhere that shows the schema of a Cardano transaction?

but didn’t get a response, so thought I would ask it separately.

Can anyone point me to some (presumably IOHK) documentation that describes what information is stored in a transaction and how the additional data stored to “colour” a coin can be accessed? I am also interested to know what capacity this (or any other) additional field in a transaction can hold.

Wow, I think I can actually hear crickets. Was it something I said

Well as a last resort there’s always the code…
