wecryptojs
A small vendoring wrapper for sjcl with support for hashes and encodings required by the WeYouMe 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 wecryptojs
API
> wecryptojs = require('wecryptojs');
wecryptojs.sha256(data)
Hashes the content of an ArrayBuffer
using SHA-256.
> shaHash = wecryptojs.sha256(new Uint8Array().buffer)
ArrayBuffer { byteLength: 32 }
> wecryptojs.hexify(shaHash)

wecryptojs.ripemd160(data)
Hashes the content of an ArrayBuffer
using RIPEMD-160.
> ripemdHash = wecryptojs.ripemd160(new Uint8Array().buffer)
ArrayBuffer { byteLength: 20 }e
> wecryptojs.hexify(ripemdHash)

wecryptojs.PrivateKey
Provides operations over WeYouMe secp256k1-based ECC private keys.
> secretKey = wecryptojs.PrivateKey.from('5JCDRqLdyX4W7tscyzyxav8EaqABSVAWLvfi7rdqMKJneqqwQGt')
PrivateKey { getPublicKey: [Function], sign: [Function] }
> secretKey.getPublicKey().toString()
'TWYM5pZ15FDVAvNKW3saTJchWmSSmYtEvA6aKiXwDtCq2JRZV9KtR9'
> secretSig = secretKey.sign(new Uint8Array(32).buffer)
ArrayBuffer { byteLength: 65 }
> wecryptojs.hexify(secretSig)

wecryptojs.PublicKey
Provides operations over WeYouMe secp256k1-based ECC public keys.
> publicKey = wecryptojs.PublicKey.from('TWYM5SKxjN1YdrFLgoPcp9KteUmNVdgE8DpTPC9sF6jbjVqP9d2Utq')
...
> publicKey.verify(new Uint8Array(32).buffer, secretSig)
true
> PublicKey.recover(someHash, someSig)
...
wecryptojs.generateKeys()
Generates a new pair of keys in WeYouMe WIF format using cryptographically secure random number generation.

}
wecryptojs.keysFromPassword(accountName, accountPassword)
Given an account name and password, regenerates the derived owner
, posting

active
, and memo
keys.
