Types

type Keys

type Keys struct {
	BLSPubKey      *bls.PublicKey
	BLSPubKeyBytes []byte
	BLSSecretKey   *bls.SecretKey
}

Keys are the keys used during consensus.

func NewKeysFromBytes

func NewKeysFromBytes(seed []byte) (Keys, error)

NewKeysFromBytes gets an array of bytes as seed for the pseudo-random generation of Keys.

func NewKeysFromReader

func NewKeysFromReader(r io.Reader) (Keys, error)

NewKeysFromReader takes a reader and uses it as a seed for generating random Keys.

func NewRandKeys

func NewRandKeys() (Keys, error)

NewRandKeys will generate and return new bls and ed25519 keys to be used in consensus.
