Public Functions Documentation¶

function EthereumKeyGenerator¶

EthereumKeyGenerator()

Construct a new Ethereum Key Generator.

function EthereumKeyGenerator¶

EthereumKeyGenerator(
    std::string_view private_key
)

Import a private key and construct a new Ethereum Key Generator.

Parameters:

private_key Private key in string form

function EthereumKeyGenerator¶

EthereumKeyGenerator(
    const ethereum::scalar_field_value_type & private_key
)

Import a private key and construct a new Ethereum Key Generator.

Parameters:

private_key Private key in string form

function get_private_key¶

inline pubkey::ext_private_key< ethereum::policy_type > get_private_key() const

Getter for private key (be careful with security implications).

Return: Reference to the private key

function get_public_key¶

inline pubkey::public_key< ethereum::policy_type > get_public_key() const

Getter for public key.

Return: Reference to the public key

function get_address¶

inline const std::string & get_address() const

Getter for the Ethereum address.

Return: Ethereum address

function GetUsedPubKeyValue¶

inline const std::string & GetUsedPubKeyValue() const

Get the single public key value used by ethereum addressing.

Return: The concatenated X and Y coordinates in string form

function GetEntirePubValue¶

inline std::string GetEntirePubValue() const

Get all key value of the public key.

Return: The concatenated X+Y key

function ExtractPubKeyFromField¶

template <typename T >
static T ExtractPubKeyFromField(
    const pubkey::public_key< ethereum::policy_type > & pub_key
)

Extract the key vector data from the ECDSA public key.

Parameters:

pub_key Public ECDSA key

Return: Key data (X + Y) of the public key

function DeriveAddress¶

static std::string DeriveAddress(
    const std::vector< std::uint8_t > & pub_key_vect
)

Derive the ethereum address from de XY concatenated coordinates.

Parameters:

pub_key_vect The concatenated vector representation of both X and Y coordinates

Return: Ethereum address in string form

Warning: The LSB is the 0 index and the MSB is the 63th.

function CreateKeys¶

static std::shared_ptr< pubkey::ext_private_key< ethereum::policy_type > > CreateKeys()

Create the ECDSA key pair.

Return: Private key pointer

function BuildPublicKey¶

static pubkey::public_key< ethereum::policy_type > BuildPublicKey(
    const std::string & pubkey_data
)
