Struct frost_core::frost::Identifier

pub struct Identifier<C: Ciphersuite>(/* private fields */);

A FROST participant identifier.

The identifier is a field element in the scalar field that the secret polynomial is defined over, corresponding to some x-coordinate for a polynomial f(x) = y. MUST NOT be zero in the field, as f(0) = the shared secret.

Implementations

impl<C> Identifier<C>where C: Ciphersuite,

pub fn derive(s: &[u8]) -> Result<Self, Error<C>>

Derive an Identifier from an arbitrary byte string.

This feature is not part of the specification and is just a convenient way of creating identifiers.

Each possible byte string will map to an uniformly random identifier. Returns an error if the ciphersuite does not support identifier derivation, or if the mapped identifier is zero (which is unpredictable, but should happen with negligible probability).

pub fn serialize(&self) -> <<C::Group as Group>::Field as Field>::Serialization

Serialize the identifier using the ciphersuite encoding.

pub fn deserialize( buf: &<<C::Group as Group>::Field as Field>::Serialization ) -> Result<Self, Error<C>>

Deserialize an Identifier from a serialized buffer. Returns an error if it attempts to deserialize zero.
