mini-cryptography 0.0.2

Package that contains ECDSA arithmetics and Merkle tree root calculation

mini-cryptography: mini ECDSA cryptography and Mekle tree root calculation

Mini-cryptography is a library that has ECC (Elliptic Curve Cryptography) arithmetic operations, including ECDSA (Elliptic Curve Digital Signature Algorithm) signature formation and verification. It also has a merkle tree root calculation.

   φ  Documentation: Mini-cryptography
   φ  Source-code: Github
   φ  Bug reports: Github

This library is suited for learning, but it is better not to use it for production.

Dependencies

Mini-cryptography supports Python 3.7+.
Installation automatically includes the tinyec library.

Installation

The library can be installed from PyPI:

pip install mini-cryptography

Uninstallation

The library can be uninstalled using:

pip uninstall mini-cryptography

User guide

There are 2 main classes:
   φ  Ecdsa - has ECDSA arithmetic operations, including signature formation and verification;
   φ  Merkle - has a merkle tree root calculation.

Required libraries

from mini_cryptography import merkle
from mini_cryptography import ecdsa
import hashlib

ECDSA

Other required classes:
   φ  Point - ECDSA point that has x and y coordinates;
   φ  Field - describes the ECDSA field.
