Functions

func CompressPubkey

func CompressPubkey(pubkey *ecdsa.PublicKey) []byte

CompressPubkey encodes a public key to the 33-byte compressed format.

func Ecrecover

func Ecrecover(hash, sig []byte) ([]byte, error)

Ecrecover returns the uncompressed public key that created the given signature.

func GenerateKey

func GenerateKey() (*ecdsa.PrivateKey, error)

GenerateKey generate a key

func Keccak256

func Keccak256(data ...[]byte) []byte

Keccak256 calculates and returns the Keccak256 hash of the input data.

func S256

func S256() elliptic.Curve

S256 returns an instance of the secp256k1 curve.

func Sign

func Sign(hash []byte, prv *ecdsa.PrivateKey) (sig []byte, err error)

Sign calculates an ECDSA signature.

This function is susceptible to chosen plaintext attacks that can leak information about the private key that is used for signing. Callers must be aware that the given hash cannot be chosen by an adversery. Common solution is to hash any input before calculating the signature.

The produced signature is in the [R || S || V] format where V is 0 or 1.

func VerifySignature

func VerifySignature(pubkey, hash, signature []byte) bool

VerifySignature checks that the given public key created signature over hash. The public key should be in compressed (33 bytes) or uncompressed (65 bytes) format. The signature should have the 64 byte [R || S] format.
