Expand description

The public key of a node’s identity keypair.

Variants

Ed25519(PublicKey)

A public Ed25519 key.

Rsa(PublicKey)

A public RSA key.

Secp256k1(PublicKey)

A public Secp256k1 key.

Implementations

Verify a signature for a message using this public key, i.e. check that the signature has been produced by the corresponding private key (authenticity), and that the message has not been tampered with (integrity).

Encode the public key into a protobuf structure for storage or exchange with other nodes.

Decode a public key from a protobuf structure, e.g. read from storage or received from another node.

Convert the PublicKey into the corresponding PeerId.
