Barreto-Naehrig curve implementation and BLS
Your system needs have installed first llvm, g++, gmp and openssl{-dev}. On Ubuntu:
sudo apt install llvm g++ libgmp-dev libssl-dev
To install from source, you can run the following commands:
git clone https://github.com/dfinity/bn
cd bn
make
make installThe library is then installed under /usr/local/.
In order to use it as a library for any project (see go-dfinity-crypto for example), your loader must be aware of this location. There are two common solutions:
- To use it for the current session:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib- To use it permanently, add
/usr/local/libto/etc/ld.so.conf, then runldconfigas root
If you wish to change the path where the libraries are installed, you can use:
make install PREFIX=/my/custom/pathPrebuilt libraries are available for select platforms.
You may need to place the libraries in the correct path as explained in the above section.
