Types

type Info

type Info interface {
	// Human-readable type for key listing
	GetType() KeyType
	// Name of the key
	GetName() string
	// Public key
	GetPubKey() crypto.PubKey
	// Address
	GetAddress() types.AccAddress
}

Info is the publicly exposed information about a keypair

type KeyType added in v0.24.0

type KeyType uint

KeyType reflects a human-readable type for key listing.

const (
	TypeLocal   KeyType = 0
	TypeLedger  KeyType = 1
	TypeOffline KeyType = 2
)

Info KeyTypes

func (KeyType) String added in v0.24.0

func (kt KeyType) String() string

String implements the stringer interface for KeyType.

type Keybase

type Keybase interface {
	// CRUD on the keystore
	List() ([]Info, error)
	Get(name string) (Info, error)
	GetByAddress(address types.AccAddress) (Info, error)
	Delete(name, passphrase string, skipPass bool) error

	// Sign some bytes, looking up the private key to use
	Sign(name, passphrase string, msg []byte) ([]byte, crypto.PubKey, error)

	// CreateMnemonic creates a new mnemonic, and derives a hierarchical deterministic
	// key from that.
	CreateMnemonic(name string, language Language, passwd string, algo SigningAlgo) (info Info, seed string, err error)

	// CreateAccount creates an account based using the BIP44 path (44'/118'/{account}'/0/{index}
	CreateAccount(name, mnemonic, bip39Passwd, encryptPasswd string, account uint32, index uint32) (Info, error)

	// Derive computes a BIP39 seed from th mnemonic and bip39Passwd.
	// Derive private key from the seed using the BIP44 params.
	// Encrypt the key to disk using encryptPasswd.
	// See https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/issues/2095
	Derive(name, mnemonic, bip39Passwd, encryptPasswd string, params hd.BIP44Params) (Info, error)

	// CreateLedger creates, stores, and returns a new Ledger key reference
	CreateLedger(name string, algo SigningAlgo, account uint32, index uint32) (info Info, err error)

	// CreateOffline creates, stores, and returns a new offline key reference
	CreateOffline(name string, pubkey crypto.PubKey) (info Info, err error)

	// The following operations will *only* work on locally-stored keys
	Update(name, oldpass string, getNewpass func() (string, error)) error
	Import(name string, armor string) (err error)
	ImportPubKey(name string, armor string) (err error)
	Export(name string) (armor string, err error)
	ExportPubKey(name string) (armor string, err error)

	// ExportPrivateKeyObject *only* works on locally-stored keys. Temporary method until we redo the exporting API
	ExportPrivateKeyObject(name string, passphrase string) (crypto.PrivKey, error)

	// CloseDB closes the database.
	CloseDB()
}

Keybase exposes operations on a generic keystore

func New

func New(name, dir string) Keybase

New creates a new instance of a lazy keybase.

Example
// Select the encryption and storage for your cryptostore
cstore := NewInMemory()

sec := Secp256k1

// Add keys and see they return in alphabetical order
bob, _, err := cstore.CreateMnemonic("Bob", English, "friend", sec)
if err != nil {
	// this should never happen
	fmt.Println(err)
} else {
	// return info here just like in List
	fmt.Println(bob.GetName())
}
cstore.CreateMnemonic("Alice", English, "secret", sec)
cstore.CreateMnemonic("Carl", English, "mitm", sec)
info, _ := cstore.List()
for _, i := range info {
	fmt.Println(i.GetName())
}

// We need to use passphrase to generate a signature
tx := []byte("deadbeef")
sig, pub, err := cstore.Sign("Bob", "friend", tx)
if err != nil {
	fmt.Println("don't accept real passphrase")
}

// and we can validate the signature with publicly available info
binfo, _ := cstore.Get("Bob")
if !binfo.GetPubKey().Equals(bob.GetPubKey()) {
	fmt.Println("Get and Create return different keys")
}

if pub.Equals(binfo.GetPubKey()) {
	fmt.Println("signed by Bob")
}
if !pub.VerifyBytes(tx, sig) {
	fmt.Println("invalid signature")
}
Output:

Bob
Alice
Bob
Carl
signed by Bob

func NewInMemory added in v0.31.0

func NewInMemory() Keybase

NewInMemory creates a transient keybase on top of in-memory storage instance useful for testing purposes and on-the-fly key generation.

type Language

type Language int

Language is a language to create the BIP 39 mnemonic in. Currently, only english is supported though. Find a list of all supported languages in the BIP 39 spec (word lists).

const (
	// English is the default language to create a mnemonic.
	// It is the only supported language by this package.
	English Language = iota + 1
	// Japanese is currently not supported.
	Japanese
	// Korean is currently not supported.
	Korean
	// Spanish is currently not supported.
	Spanish
	// ChineseSimplified is currently not supported.
	ChineseSimplified
	// ChineseTraditional is currently not supported.
	ChineseTraditional
	// French is currently not supported.
	French
	// Italian is currently not supported.
	Italian
)
