# ECDSA Verify

[](https://crates.io/crates/ecdsa_verify)
`ecdsa_verify` is a pure Rust crate for verifying ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital
Signature Algorithm) signatures. This crate provides functions to handle
elliptic curve operations and verify signatures against given message hashes
and public keys.
## Features
- Supports the `secp256k1` and `secp256r1` elliptic curves.
- Implements elliptic curve operations in Jacobian coordinates.
- Provides a function to verify ECDSA signatures.
## Installation
Add the following to your `Cargo.toml`:
```toml
[dependencies]
ecdsa_verify = "1.1"
```
## Usage
```rust
use ecdsa_verify::{verify, Point3D, EcdsaSignature, secp256r1};
use num_bigint::BigInt;
use num_traits::Zero;
fn main() {
let message_hash = hex::decode("48c08394455a5007945a9025c58be18f1795db8a6f8c12e70a00c1cdd6d3df78").unwrap();
let sig = EcdsaSignature {
r: BigInt::parse_bytes(b"7679932563960414347091205306595575529033945270189659289643076129390605281494", 10).unwrap(),
s: BigInt::parse_bytes(b"47844299635965077418200610260443789525430653377570372618360888620298576429143", 10).unwrap(),
};
let public_key = Point3D {
x: BigInt::parse_bytes(b"57742645121064378973436687487225580113493928349340781038880342836084265852815", 10).unwrap(),
y: BigInt::parse_bytes(b"99327750397910171089097863507426920114029443958399733106031194020330646322282", 10).unwrap(),
z: BigInt::zero(),
};
let curve = secp256r1();
let is_valid = verify(&message_hash, &sig, &public_key, &curve);
println!("Signature valid: {}", is_valid);
}
```
## Benchmarks
