pub struct VerificationKeyBytes(_);
Expand description

A refinement type for [u8; 32] indicating that the bytes represent an encoding of an Ed25519 verification key.

This is useful for representing an encoded verification key, while the VerificationKey type in this library caches other decoded state used in signature verification.

A VerificationKeyBytes can be used to verify a single signature using the following idiom:

use core::convert::TryFrom;
VerificationKey::try_from(vk_bytes)
    .and_then(|vk| vk.verify(&sig, msg));

Implementations§

Returns the byte encoding of the verification key.

This is the same as .into(), but does not require type inference.
