cardano-crypto.js

compiled to pure javascript using Emscripten. This is a collection of cryptolibraries and functions useful for working with Cardano cryptocurrency, eliminating the need for many dependencies.

examples

signing

var lib = require('cardano-crypto.js')

var mnemonic = 'logic easily waste eager injury oval sentence wine bomb embrace gossip supreme'
var walletSecret = await lib.mnemonicToRootKeypair(mnemonic, 1)
var msg = new Buffer('hello there')
var sig = lib.sign(msg, walletSecret)

deriving child keys (hardened derivation, you can choose either derivation scheme 1 or 2)

var lib = require('cardano-crypto.js')

var mnemonic = 'logic easily waste eager injury oval sentence wine bomb embrace gossip supreme'
var parentWalletSecret = lib.mnemonicToRootKeypair(mnemonic, 1)
var childWalletSecret = lib.derivePrivate(parentWalletSecret, 0x80000001, 1)

deriving child public keys (nonhardened derivation, you can choose either derivation scheme 1 or 2)

var lib = require('cardano-crypto.js')

var mnemonic = 'logic easily waste eager injury oval sentence wine bomb embrace gossip supreme'
var parentWalletSecret = lib.mnemonicToRootKeypair(mnemonic, 1)
var parentWalletPublicKey = parentWalletSecret.slice(64, 128)
var childWalletSecret = lib.derivePublic(parentWalletPublicKey, 1, 1)

We encourage you to take a look at test/index.js to see how the functions above should be used.

development

Install emscripten, recommended version is 1.38.8
run npm install
run npm run build

emscripten build example

git clone https://github.com/emscripten-core/emsdk.git
cd emsdk
./emsdk install sdk-1.38.8-64bit
./emsdk activate sdk-1.38.8-64bit
source ./emsdk_env.sh
cd ../
git clone https://github.com/vacuumlabs/cardano-crypto.js
cd cardano-crypto.js
npm install
npm run build
shasum lib.js # should match shasum of published version of lib.js

known issues

When trying to compile the library with emscripten 1.38.41, the cardanoMemoryCombine function slows down significantly. With the 1.38.8 version it runs significantly faster.

tests

run npm run test
