erdkeys 0.1.3

Tools for working with elrond pem files and json keystores

erdkeys

This are Flying Stone's little tools for converting between elrond wallet pem files and json keystores. Please be aware that the private key is written in plaintext in the pem file. The json keystores are much safer to use.

Use at your own risk and remember: if you run code you haven't read and understood, you can't be sure that it is not sending me your keys ;-)

installing

Before insptalling erdkeys, make sure that pip3 in installed. If you already installed erdpy, you should already have pip3.

$ pip3 install erdkeys

This will also install a couple of dependencies: the extremely cool cryptography library and a small module to deal with bech32 addresses.

usage

$ pem2json.py pem_file password

$ json2pem.py json_file password

For instance, one of my Battle of Nodes wallet keystore is erd1g2ufua664sxjvxmw5hh72he3xy6w4gk9l8e4lvfjeyh8d0jk7gdsfrpdu0.json and I need to convert it to pem format for use with erdpy:

json2pem.py erd1g2ufua664sxjvxmw5hh72he3xy6w4gk9l8e4lvfjeyh8d0jk7gdsfrpdu0.json mYpAsSwOrD

will produce a file erd1g2ufua664sxjvxmw5hh72he3xy6w4gk9l8e4lvfjeyh8d0jk7gdsfrpdu0.pem in the same directory. You will get an error in case the keystore is corrupted or you entered the wrong password.

When creating a keystore with pem2json, the password must satisfy the same requirements as the official wallet.
