[−][src]Crate cashweb_secp256k1
Secp256k1
Rust bindings for Pieter Wuille's secp256k1 library, which is used for fast and accurate manipulation of ECDSA signatures on the secp256k1 curve. Such signatures are used extensively by the Bitcoin network and its derivatives.
To minimize dependencies, some functions are feature-gated. To generate random keys or to re-randomize a context object, compile with the "rand" feature. To de/serialize objects with serde, compile with "serde".
Where possible, the bindings use the Rust type system to ensure that
API usage errors are impossible. For example, the library uses context
objects that contain precomputation tables which are created on object
construction. Since this is a slow operation (10+ milliseconds, vs ~50
microseconds for typical crypto operations, on a 2.70 Ghz i7-6820HQ)
the tables are optional, giving a performance boost for users who only
care about signing, only care about verification, or only care about
parsing. In the upstream library, if you attempt to sign a message using
a context that does not support this, it will trigger an assertion
failure and terminate the program. In rust-secp256k1
, this is caught
at compile-time; in fact, it is impossible to compile code that will
trigger any assertion failures in the upstream library.
use cashweb_secp256k1::rand::rngs::OsRng; use cashweb_secp256k1::{Secp256k1, Message}; use cashweb_secp256k1::bitcoin_hashes::sha256; let secp = Secp256k1::new(); let mut rng = OsRng::new().expect("OsRng"); let (secret_key, public_key) = secp.generate_keypair(&mut rng); let message = Message::from_hashed_data::<sha256::Hash>("Hello World!".as_bytes()); let sig = secp.sign(&message, &secret_key); assert!(secp.verify(&message, &sig, &public_key).is_ok());
The above code requires rust-secp256k1
to be compiled with the rand
and bitcoin_hashes
feature enabled, to get access to generate_keypair
Alternately, keys and messages can be parsed from slices, like
use self::cashweb_secp256k1::{Secp256k1, Message, SecretKey, PublicKey}; let secp = Secp256k1::new(); let secret_key = SecretKey::from_slice(&[0xcd; 32]).expect("32 bytes, within curve order"); let public_key = PublicKey::from_secret_key(&secp, &secret_key); // This is unsafe unless the supplied byte slice is the output of a cryptographic hash function. // See the above example for how to use this library together with bitcoin_hashes. let message = Message::from_slice(&[0xab; 32]).expect("32 bytes"); let sig = secp.sign(&message, &secret_key); assert!(secp.verify(&message, &sig, &public_key).is_ok());
Users who only want to verify signatures can use a cheaper context, like so:
use cashweb_secp256k1::{Secp256k1, Message, Signature, PublicKey}; let secp = Secp256k1::verification_only(); let public_key = PublicKey::from_slice(&[ 0x02, 0xc6, 0x6e, 0x7d, 0x89, 0x66, 0xb5, 0xc5, 0x55, 0xaf, 0x58, 0x05, 0x98, 0x9d, 0xa9, 0xfb, 0xf8, 0xdb, 0x95, 0xe1, 0x56, 0x31, 0xce, 0x35, 0x8c, 0x3a, 0x17, 0x10, 0xc9, 0x62, 0x67, 0x90, 0x63, ]).expect("public keys must be 33 or 65 bytes, serialized according to SEC 2"); let message = Message::from_slice(&[ 0xaa, 0xdf, 0x7d, 0xe7, 0x82, 0x03, 0x4f, 0xbe, 0x3d, 0x3d, 0xb2, 0xcb, 0x13, 0xc0, 0xcd, 0x91, 0xbf, 0x41, 0xcb, 0x08, 0xfa, 0xc7, 0xbd, 0x61, 0xd5, 0x44, 0x53, 0xcf, 0x6e, 0x82, 0xb4, 0x50, ]).expect("messages must be 32 bytes and are expected to be hashes"); let sig = Signature::from_compact(&[ 0xdc, 0x4d, 0xc2, 0x64, 0xa9, 0xfe, 0xf1, 0x7a, 0x3f, 0x25, 0x34, 0x49, 0xcf, 0x8c, 0x39, 0x7a, 0xb6, 0xf1, 0x6f, 0xb3, 0xd6, 0x3d, 0x86, 0x94, 0x0b, 0x55, 0x86, 0x82, 0x3d, 0xfd, 0x02, 0xae, 0x3b, 0x46, 0x1b, 0xb4, 0x33, 0x6b, 0x5e, 0xcb, 0xae, 0xfd, 0x66, 0x27, 0xaa, 0x92, 0x2e, 0xfc, 0x04, 0x8f, 0xec, 0x0c, 0x88, 0x1c, 0x10, 0xc4, 0xc9, 0x42, 0x8f, 0xca, 0x69, 0xc1, 0x32, 0xa2, ]).expect("compact signatures are 64 bytes; DER signatures are 68-72 bytes"); assert!(secp.verify(&message, &sig, &public_key).is_ok());
Observe that the same code using, say signing_only
to generate a context would simply not compile.
