Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

libcrypto

A small vendoring wrapper for sjcl with support for hashes and encodings required by the Hive platform.

Usage

If you are using Webpack or Browserify, you must ensure that Node's built-in crypto package is excluded from your builds.

Otherwise, just

$ yarn install @hivechain/libcrypto

API

> crypto = require('@hivechain/libcrypto');

crypto.sha256(data)

Hashes the content of an ArrayBuffer using SHA-256.

> shaHash = crypto.sha256(new Uint8Array().buffer)
ArrayBuffer { byteLength: 32 }
> crypto.hexify(shaHash)
'e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855'

crypto.ripemd160(data)

Hashes the content of an ArrayBuffer using RIPEMD-160.

> ripemdHash = crypto.ripemd160(new Uint8Array().buffer)
ArrayBuffer { byteLength: 20 }
> crypto.hexify(ripemdHash)
'9c1185a5c5e9fc54612808977ee8f548b2258d31'

crypto.PrivateKey

Provides operations over Hive secp256k1-based ECC private keys.

> secretKey = crypto.PrivateKey.from('5JCDRqLdyX4W7tscyzyxav8EaqABSVAWLvfi7rdqMKJneqqwQGt')
PrivateKey { getPublicKey: [Function], sign: [Function] }
> secretKey.getPublicKey().toString()
'STM5pZ15FDVAvNKW3saTJchWmSSmYtEvA6aKiXwDtCq2JRZV9KtR9'
> secretSig = secretKey.sign(new Uint8Array(32).buffer)
ArrayBuffer { byteLength: 65 }
> crypto.hexify(secretSig)
'20387d5f9ae215a64065fde2a9d4f7be83d3480b7cc89f7c01488042da348845408909e9d4f1d66466c53f0007c771a73bf2883d8d5ab4735b5b4316091361442c'

crypto.PublicKey

Provides operations over Hive secp256k1-based ECC public keys.

> publicKey = crypto.PublicKey.from('STM5SKxjN1YdrFLgoPcp9KteUmNVdgE8DpTPC9sF6jbjVqP9d2Utq')
... 
> publicKey.verify(new Uint8Array(32).buffer, secretSig)
true
> PublicKey.recover(someHash, someSig)
...

crypto.generateKeys()

Generates a new pair of keys in Hive WIF format using cryptographically secure random number generation.

> crypto.generateKeys()
{
  private: "5JCDRqLdyX4W7tscyzyxav8EaqABSVAWLvfi7rdqMKJneqqwQGt",
  public: "STM5pZ15FDVAvNKW3saTJchWmSSmYtEvA6aKiXwDtCq2JRZV9KtR9"
}

crypto.keysFromPassword(accountName, accountPassword)

Given a Hive account name and password, regenerates the derived owner, posting, active, and memo keys.

> crypto.keysFromPassword('username', 'password')
{ owner:
   { private: '5JCDRqLdyX4W7tscyzyxav8EaqABSVAWLvfi7rdqMKJneqqwQGt',
     public: 'STM5pZ15FDVAvNKW3saTJchWmSSmYtEvA6aKiXwDtCq2JRZV9KtR9' },
  memo:
   { private: '5JSmQQJXH5ZrSW3KJSTUPFJy7SuLeDiY3bW6vB1McamxzJQFhwD',
     public: 'STM5nwJgD9jmkAdTXuiz3jqrkw3om95gCapZo4e4Bcp3qzyiedwCn' },
  posting:
   { private: '5HsoxWiHRRyx6oSxKj32HDqDMzSGhs79zLZopDc7nMcjMbcPp5E',
     public: 'STM6gZmazY23TEMkxmPpnmvbAgWFAzwtaSDbhSUdmpTXzoJJLPFH4' },
  active:
   { private: '5JamTPvZyQsHf8c2pbN92F1gUY3sJkpW3ZJFzdmfbAJPAXT5aw3',
     public: 'STM5SKxjN1YdrFLgoPcp9KteUmNVdgE8DpTPC9sF6jbjVqP9d2Utq' } }
