Struct bls_like::single::SecretKeyVT

pub struct SecretKeyVT<E: EngineBLS>(pub E::Scalar);

Secret signing key lacking the side channel protections from key splitting. Avoid using directly in production.

Methods

impl<E: EngineBLS> SecretKeyVT<E>

pub fn to_repr(&self) -> <E::Scalar as PrimeField>::Repr

Convert our secret key to its representation type, which satisfies both AsRef<[u64]> and ff::PrimeFieldRepr. We suggest ff::PrimeFieldRepr::write_le for serialization, invoked by our write method.

pub fn write<W: Write>(&self, writer: W) -> Result<()>

pub fn from_repr(
    repr: <E::Scalar as PrimeField>::Repr
) -> Result<Self, PrimeFieldDecodingError>

Convert our secret key from its representation type, which satisfies Default, AsMut<[u64]>, and ff::PrimeFieldRepr. We suggest ff::PrimeFieldRepr::read_le for deserialization, invoked via our read method, which requires a seperate call.

pub fn read<R: Read>(reader: R) -> Result<<E::Scalar as PrimeField>::Repr>

pub fn generate<R: Rng>(rng: R) -> Self

Generate a secret key without side channel protections.

pub fn sign(&self, message: Message) -> Signature<E>

Sign without side channel protections from key mutation.

pub fn into_split_dirty(&self) -> SecretKey<E>

Convert into a SecretKey that supports side channel protections, but does not itself resplit the key.

pub fn into_split<R: Rng>(&self, rng: R) -> SecretKey<E>

Convert into a SecretKey applying side channel protections.

pub fn into_public(&self) -> PublicKey<E>

Derive our public key from our secret key

Trait Implementations
