pub enum Keypair {

}
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.

Implementations

Generate a new Ed25519 keypair.

Generate a new Secp256k1 keypair.

Decode an keypair from a DER-encoded secret key in PKCS#8 PrivateKeyInfo format (i.e. unencrypted) as defined in RFC5208.

Decode a keypair from a DER-encoded Secp256k1 secret key in an ECPrivateKey structure as defined in RFC5915.

Sign a message using the private key of this keypair, producing a signature that can be verified using the corresponding public key.

Get the public key of this keypair.
