Expand description

The public key of a node’s identity keypair.

Variants§

§

Ed25519(PublicKey)

A public Ed25519 key.

§

Rsa(PublicKey)

Available on crate feature rsa and non-WebAssembly only.

A public RSA key.

§

Secp256k1(PublicKey)

Available on crate feature secp256k1 only.

A public Secp256k1 key.

§

Ecdsa(PublicKey)

Available on crate feature ecdsa only.

A public ECDSA key.

Implementations§

Verify a signature for a message using this public key, i.e. check that the signature has been produced by the corresponding private key (authenticity), and that the message has not been tampered with (integrity).

Encode the public key into a protobuf structure for storage or exchange with other nodes.

Decode a public key from a protobuf structure, e.g. read from storage or received from another node.

Convert the PublicKey into the corresponding PeerId.
