ed25519_edwards library

Package ed25519 implements the Ed25519 signature algorithm. See https://ed25519.cr.yp.to/.

These functions are also compatible with the “Ed25519” function defined in RFC 8032. However, unlike RFC 8032's formulation, this package's private key representation includes a public key suffix to make multiple signing operations with the same key more efficient. This package refers to the RFC 8032 private key as the “seed”.

Classes

KeyPair
KeyPair is the type of Ed25519 public/private key pair.
PrivateKey
PrivateKey is the type of Ed25519 private keys.
PublicKey
PublicKey is the type of Ed25519 public keys.

Constants

PrivateKeySize → const int
PrivateKeySize is the size, in bytes, of private keys as used in this package.
PublicKeySize → const int
PublicKeySize is the size, in bytes, of public keys as used in this package.
SeedSize → const int
SeedSize is the size, in bytes, of private key seeds. These are the private key representations used by RFC 8032.
SignatureSize → const int
SignatureSize is the size, in bytes, of signatures generated and verified by this package.

Functions

generateKey() KeyPair
GenerateKey generates a public/private key pair using entropy from secure random.
newKeyFromSeed(Uint8List seed) PrivateKey
NewKeyFromSeed calculates a private key from a seed. It will throw ArgumentError if seed.length is not SeedSize. This function is provided for interoperability with RFC 8032. RFC 8032's private keys correspond to seeds in this package.
public(PrivateKey privateKey) PublicKey
public returns the PublicKey corresponding to PrivateKey.
seed(PrivateKey privateKey) Uint8List
Seed returns the private key seed corresponding to priv. It is provided for interoperability with RFC 8032. RFC 8032's private keys correspond to seeds in this package.
sign(PrivateKey privateKey, Uint8List message) Uint8List
Sign signs the message with privateKey and returns a signature. It will throw ArumentError if privateKey.bytes.length is not PrivateKeySize.
verify(PublicKey publicKey, Uint8List message, Uint8List sig) bool
Verify reports whether sig is a valid signature of message by publicKey. It will throw ArgumentError if publicKey.bytes.length is not PublicKeySize.
