Struct bip39::Seed

pub struct Seed { /* fields omitted */ }

The secret value used to derive HD wallet addresses from a Mnemonic phrase.

It cannot be created directly, you must create a Mnemonic instance and get the seed from it with Mnemonic::get_seed().

Because it is not possible to create a Mnemonic instance that is invalid, it is therefore impossible to have a Seed instance that is invalid. This guarantees that only a valid, intact mnemonic phrase can be used to derive HD wallet addresses.

To get the raw byte value use Seed::as_bytes(), or the hex representation with Seed::as_hex(). These can be used to derive HD wallet addresses using another crate (deriving HD wallet addresses is outside the scope of this crate and the BIP39 standard).

Methods

impl Seed

fn as_bytes(&self) -> &[u8]

Get the seed value as a slice

fn as_hex(&self) -> &str

Get the seed value as a hex string

fn to_owned(&self) -> Seed

Get an owned Seed from this instance

Note: this clones the Seed
