neo3crypto 0.1

Native crypto functions for the NEO 3 Blockchain

NEO3VM

C++ implementations of cryptographic functions used in the NEO3 Blockchain with bindings for Python 3.7 & 3.8.

The current version only supports EllipticCurve functions by wrapping micro-ecc) and exposing helper classes. SECP256R1 (a.k.a NIST256P) and SECP256K1 are the only curves exposed, but others can easily be enabled if needed.

Installation

pip install neo3crypto

Or download the wheels from the Github releases page.

Usage

import hashlib
import os
from neo3crypto import ECCCurve, ECPoint, sign, verify


curve = ECCCurve.SECP256R1
private_key = os.urandom(32)
public_key = ECPoint(private_key, curve)

signature = sign(private_key, b'message', curve, hashlib.sha256)
assert ecdsa.verify(signature, b'message', public_key, hashlib.sha256) == True

Any hashlib hashing function can be used. Further documentation on the classes can be queried from the extension module using help(neo3crypto).

Building wheels

Make sure to have wheel and CMake installed. Then call python setup.py bdist_wheel.
