Struct SecretKey

pub struct SecretKey(/* private fields */);

A secret key.

Implementations

impl SecretKey

pub fn random_with_rng(rng: &mut (impl CryptoRng + RngCore)) -> Self

Creates a secret key using the given RNG.

pub fn random() -> Self

Available on crate feature default-rng only.

Creates a secret key using the default RNG.

pub fn public_key(&self) -> PublicKey

Returns a public key corresponding to this secret key.

pub fn to_be_bytes( &self, ) -> SecretBox<GenericArray<u8, FieldBytesSize<Secp256k1>>>

Serializes the secret key as a scalar in the big-endian representation.

pub fn try_from_be_bytes( bytes: &SecretBox<GenericArray<u8, FieldBytesSize<Secp256k1>>>, ) -> Result<Self, String>

Deserializes the secret key from a scalar in the big-endian representation.

Trait Implementations

impl Clone for SecretKey

fn clone(&self) -> SecretKey

Returns a duplicate of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl Display for SecretKey

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl Drop for SecretKey

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.

impl PartialEq for SecretKey

fn eq(&self, other: &SecretKey) -> 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.
