Struct BasicIdentity

pub struct BasicIdentity { /* private fields */ }

A cryptographic identity which signs using an Ed25519 key pair.

The caller will be represented via Principal::self_authenticating, which contains the SHA-224 hash of the public key.

Implementations

impl BasicIdentity

pub fn from_pem_file<P: AsRef<Path>>(file_path: P) -> Result<Self, PemError>

Available on crate feature pem only.

Create a BasicIdentity from reading a PEM file at the path.

pub fn from_pem<R: Read>(pem_reader: R) -> Result<Self, PemError>

Available on crate feature pem only.

Create a BasicIdentity from reading a PEM File from a Reader.

pub fn from_signing_key(key: SigningKey) -> Self

Create a BasicIdentity from a SigningKey from ed25519-consensus.
