Struct Secp256k1Identity

pub struct Secp256k1Identity { /* private fields */ }

A cryptographic identity based on the Secp256k1 elliptic curve.

The caller will be represented via Principal::self_authenticating, which contains the SHA-224 hash of the public key.

Implementations

impl Secp256k1Identity

pub fn from_pem_file<P: AsRef<Path>>(file_path: P) -> Result<Self, PemError>

Creates an identity from a PEM file. Shorthand for calling from_pem with std::fs::read.

pub fn from_pem<R: Read>(pem_reader: R) -> Result<Self, PemError>

Creates an identity from a PEM certificate.

pub fn from_private_key(private_key: SecretKey) -> Self

Creates an identity from a private key.
