Struct PrivateKey

pub struct PrivateKey { /* private fields */ }

Privatekey, a keypair for performing ECDH and blinding operations.

Implementations

impl PrivateKey

pub fn from_bytes(b: &[u8]) -> Result<PrivateKey, KeyError>

from_bytes creates a new keypair from the given bytes

pub fn from_pem_files( priv_file: String, pub_file: String, ) -> Result<PrivateKey, KeyError>

Load private and public PEM files.

pub fn generate<R: Rng>(rng: &mut R) -> Result<PrivateKey, KeyError>

generate creates a new key pair

Arguments

• rng - an implementation of Rng, a random number generator.

Returns

• Returns a PrivateKey or an error.

pub fn load_bytes(&mut self, b: &[u8]) -> Result<(), KeyError>

load_bytes loads a key from the given bytes.

pub fn to_pem_files( &self, priv_file: String, pub_file: String, ) -> Result<(), KeyError>

to_pem_files writes the public and privates keys to two PEM files.

pub fn regenerate<R: Rng>(&mut self, rng: &mut R) -> Result<(), KeyError>

regenerate uses the given rng to generate a new key.

pub fn public_key(&self) -> PublicKey

public_key returns the PublicKey

pub fn exp(&self, public_key: &PublicKey) -> [u8; 32]

Exp calculates the shared secret with the provided public key.

pub fn to_vec(&self) -> Vec<u8>

to_vec returns the private key as a Vec

pub fn as_array(self) -> [u8; 32]

as_array returns the private key as an array [u8; KEY_SIZE]

pub fn reset(&mut self)

reset resets the key to explicit zeros

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for PrivateKey

fn clone(&self) -> PrivateKey

Returns a copy of the value.

fn clone_from(&mut self, source: &Self)

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Debug for PrivateKey

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Default for PrivateKey

fn default() -> Self

Returns the “default value” for a type.

impl PartialEq for PrivateKey

fn eq(&self, other: &PrivateKey) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
