Required Associated Types

type PublicKey: PublicKey

Required Methods

fn new() -> Self

Generates a new secret key.

fn to_bytes(&self) -> Vec<u8>

Converts the secret key to a byte vector.

fn from_bytes(bytes: impl AsRef<[u8]>) -> Result<Self, KeyPairError>

where Self: Sized,

Creates a secret key from a byte slice.

fn to_hex(&self) -> String

Converts the secret key to a hexadecimal string.

fn from_hex(hex: &str) -> Result<Self, KeyPairError>

where Self: Sized,

Creates a secret key from a hexadecimal string.

fn pubkey(&self) -> Self::PublicKey

Returns the corresponding public key.

Dyn Compatibility

This trait is not dyn compatible.

In older versions of Rust, dyn compatibility was called "object safety", so this trait is not object safe.
