Archethic's lib_dart #

Archethic dart library for Flutter

Usage #

This library aims to provide a easy way to create Archethic transaction and to send them over the network.

It supports the Archethic Cryptography rules which are:

Algorithm identification: keys are prepared by metadata bytes to indicate the curve used and the origin of the generation, and hashes are prepended by a byte to indicate the hash algorithm used. Those information help during the verification

Key derivation:

To be able to retrieve previous public key, the Archethic network designs the key derivation through a seed (passphrase) and an index(number of previous public keys/transactions). The procedure is described as follows:

The seed generates a master key and an entropy used in the child keys generation.

                                                           / (256 bytes) Next private key
                      (256 bytes) Master key  --> HMAC-512
                    /                              Key: Master entropy,
  seed --> HMAC-512                                Data: Master key + index)
                    \
                     (256 bytes) Master entropy
