Type Alias SecretKey

pub type SecretKey = SecretKey<NistP256>;

NIST P-256 secret key.

Aliased Type

struct SecretKey { /* private fields */ }

Implementations

impl<C> SecretKey<C>

where C: Curve,

pub fn random(rng: &mut impl CryptoRngCore) -> SecretKey<C>

where C: CurveArithmetic,

Generate a random SecretKey.

pub fn new(scalar: ScalarPrimitive<C>) -> SecretKey<C>

Create a new secret key from a scalar value.

pub fn as_scalar_primitive(&self) -> &ScalarPrimitive<C>

Borrow the inner secret ScalarPrimitive value.

⚠️ Warning

This value is key material.

Please treat it with the care it deserves!

pub fn to_nonzero_scalar(&self) -> NonZeroScalar<C>

where C: CurveArithmetic,

Get the secret NonZeroScalar value for this key.

⚠️ Warning

This value is key material.

Please treat it with the care it deserves!

pub fn public_key(&self) -> PublicKey<C>

where C: CurveArithmetic,

Get the PublicKey which corresponds to this secret key

pub fn from_bytes( bytes: &GenericArray<u8, <C as Curve>::FieldBytesSize>, ) -> Result<SecretKey<C>, Error>

Deserialize secret key from an encoded secret scalar.

pub fn from_slice(slice: &[u8]) -> Result<SecretKey<C>, Error>

Deserialize secret key from an encoded secret scalar passed as a byte slice.

The slice is expected to be a minimum of 24-bytes (192-byts) and at most C::FieldBytesSize bytes in length.

Byte slices shorter than the field size are handled by zero padding the input.

pub fn to_bytes(&self) -> GenericArray<u8, <C as Curve>::FieldBytesSize>

Serialize raw secret scalar as a big endian integer.

pub fn from_sec1_der(der_bytes: &[u8]) -> Result<SecretKey<C>, Error>

where C: Curve + ValidatePublicKey, <C as Curve>::FieldBytesSize: ModulusSize,

Deserialize secret key encoded in the SEC1 ASN.1 DER ECPrivateKey format.

Trait Implementations

impl<C> Clone for SecretKey<C>

where C: Clone + Curve,

fn clone(&self) -> SecretKey<C>

Returns a copy of the value.

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

Performs copy-assignment from source.

impl<C> ConstantTimeEq for SecretKey<C>

where C: Curve,

fn ct_eq(&self, other: &SecretKey<C>) -> Choice

Determine if two items are equal.

impl<C> Debug for SecretKey<C>

where C: Curve,

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

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl<C> Drop for SecretKey<C>

where C: Curve,

fn drop(&mut self)

Executes the destructor for this type.

impl<C> From<&NonZeroScalar<C>> for SecretKey<C>

where C: CurveArithmetic,

fn from(scalar: &NonZeroScalar<C>) -> SecretKey<C>

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl<C> From<&SigningKey<C>> for SecretKey<C>

where C: PrimeCurve + CurveArithmetic, <C as CurveArithmetic>::Scalar: Invert<Output = CtOption<<C as CurveArithmetic>::Scalar>> + SignPrimitive<C>, <<C as Curve>::FieldBytesSize as Add>::Output: ArrayLength<u8>,

fn from(secret_key: &SigningKey<C>) -> SecretKey<C>

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl<C> From<NonZeroScalar<C>> for SecretKey<C>

where C: CurveArithmetic,

fn from(scalar: NonZeroScalar<C>) -> SecretKey<C>

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl<C> From<SigningKey<C>> for SecretKey<C>

fn from(key: SigningKey<C>) -> SecretKey<C>

Converts to this type from the input type.

impl<C> PartialEq for SecretKey<C>

where C: Curve,

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