slip10 1.0.1

A reference implementation of the SLIP-0010 specification, which generalizes the BIP-0032 derivation scheme for private and public key pairs in hierarchical deterministic wallets for the curves secp256k1, NIST P-256, ed25519 and curve25519.

Usage

# Specify the derivation path as a list ...
>>> slip10.get_xpriv_from_path([1, HARDENED_INDEX, 9998])

Installation

pip install slip10

Dependencies

This package uses ecdsa as a wrapper for secp256k1 and secp256r1 elliptic curve operations and cryptography for Ed25519 and curve25519 operations.

Running the test suite

pip3 install poetry
git clone https://github.com/trezor/python-slip10
cd python-slip10
poetry install
poetry run make test

Interface

All public keys below are compressed.

All path below are a list of integers representing the index of the key at each depth.

network is "main" or "test".

curve_name is one of "secp256k1", "secp256r1", "ed25519" or "curve25519".

SLIP10

from_seed(seed, network="main", curve_name="secp256k1")

classmethod

Instanciate from a raw seed (as bytes). See SLIP-0010's master key generation.

from_xpriv(xpriv)

classmethod

Instanciate with an encoded serialized extended private key (as str) as master.

from_xpub(xpub)

classmethod

Instanciate with an encoded serialized extended public key (as str) as master.

You'll only be able to derive unhardened public keys.

get_child_from_path(path)

Returns a SLIP10 instance of the child pointed by the path.

get_extended_privkey_from_path(path)

Returns (chaincode (bytes), privkey (bytes)) of the private key pointed by the path.

get_privkey_from_path(path)

Returns privkey (bytes), the private key pointed by the path.

get_extended_pubkey_from_path(path)

Returns (chaincode (bytes), pubkey (bytes)) of the public key pointed by the path.

Note that you don't need to have provided the master private key if the path doesn't include an index >= HARDENED_INDEX.

get_pubkey_from_path(path)

Returns pubkey (bytes), the public key pointed by the path.

Note that you don't need to have provided the master private key if the path doesn't include an index >= HARDENED_INDEX.

get_xpriv_from_path(path)

Returns xpriv (str) the serialized and encoded extended private key pointed by the given path.

get_xpub_from_path(path)

Returns xpub (str) the serialized and encoded extended public key pointed by the given path.

Note that you don't need to have provided the master private key if the path doesn't include an index >= HARDENED_INDEX.

get_xpriv()

Equivalent to get_xpriv_from_path([]).

get_xpriv_bytes()

Equivalent to get_xpriv([]), but not serialized in base58

get_xpub()

Equivalent to get_xpub_from_path([]).

get_xpub_bytes()

Equivalent to get_xpub([]), but not serialized in base58
