Struct saltyrtc_client::crypto::KeyPair

pub struct KeyPair { /* private fields */ }

Wrapper for holding a public/private key pair and encrypting/decrypting messages.

Implementations

impl KeyPair

pub fn new() -> Self

Create a new key pair and wrap it in a KeyPair.

pub fn from_private_key(private_key: PrivateKey) -> Self

Create a new key pair from an existing private key.

The private key is consumed and transferred into the KeyPair.

pub fn from_keypair(public_key: PublicKey, private_key: PrivateKey) -> Self

Create a new key pair from an existing public and private key.

The two keys are consumed and transferred into the KeyPair.

pub fn public_key(&self) -> &PublicKey

Return a reference to the public key.

pub fn public_key_hex(&self) -> String

Return the public key as hex-encoded string.

pub fn private_key(&self) -> &PrivateKey

Return a reference to the private key.

Warning: Be careful with this! The only reason to access the private key is probably to be able to restore it when working with trusted keys.

pub fn private_key_hex(&self) -> String

Return the private key as hex-encoded string.

Warning: Be careful with this! The only reason to access the private key is probably to be able to restore it when working with trusted keys.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for KeyPair

Implementation required because Debug is not implemented for PrivateKey.

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.
