Expand description
Identity keypair of a node.
Example: Generating RSA keys with OpenSSL
openssl genrsa -out private.pem 2048
openssl pkcs8 -in private.pem -inform PEM -topk8 -out private.pk8 -outform DER -nocrypt
rm private.pem # optional
Loading the keys:
let mut bytes = std::fs::read("private.pk8").unwrap();
let keypair = Keypair::rsa_from_pkcs8(&mut bytes);
Variants
Ed25519(Keypair)
An Ed25519 keypair.
Rsa(Keypair)
An RSA keypair.
Secp256k1(Keypair)
A Secp256k1 keypair.
