bip66 0.4

Strict DER signature encoding/decoding.

Strict DER signature encoding/decoding.

See bip66.

• This module works only with two's complement numbers.
• BIP66 doesn't check that r or s are fully valid.
  • check/decode doesn't check that r or s great than 33 bytes or that this number represent valid point on elliptic curve.
  • encode doesn't check that r/s represent valid point on elliptic curve.

Example

import bip66
r = "29db2d5f4e1dcc04e19266cce3cb135865784c62ab653b307f0e0bb744f5c2aa"
s = "00a97f5826912cac8b44d9f577a26f169a2f8db781f2ddb7de2bc886e93b6844"
encoded = bip66.encode(binascii.unhexlify(r), binascii.unhexlify(s))
signature = binascii.hexlify(encoded).decode()
# > 00a97f5826912cac8b44d9f577a26f169a2f8db781f2ddb7de2bc886e93b6844
