Class Ed25519PublicKey

Represents the public key of an Ed25519 key pair.

Since AIP-55 Aptos supports Legacy and Unified authentication keys.

Ed25519 scheme is represented in the SDK as Legacy authentication key and also as AnyPublicKey that represents any Unified authentication key

key: Hex

Bytes of the public key

`Static` `Readonly` LENGTH

LENGTH: number = 32

Length of an Ed25519 public key

Methods

authKey

authKey(): AuthenticationKey
Get the authentication key associated with this public key

Returns AuthenticationKey
Overrides AccountPublicKey.authKey
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:71

bcsToBytes

bcsToBytes(): Uint8Array
Serializes a Serializable value to its BCS representation. This function is the Typescript SDK equivalent of bcs::to_bytes in Move.

Returns Uint8Array
the BCS representation of the Serializable instance as a byte buffer
Inherited from AccountPublicKey.bcsToBytes
- Defined in src/bcs/serializer.ts:27

bcsToHex

bcsToHex(): Hex
Helper function to get a value's BCS-serialized bytes as a Hex instance.

Returns Hex
a Hex instance with the BCS-serialized bytes loaded into its underlying Uint8Array
Inherited from AccountPublicKey.bcsToHex
- Defined in src/bcs/serializer.ts:37

serialize

serialize(serializer): void
Parameters
- serializer: Serializer
Returns void
Overrides AccountPublicKey.serialize
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:91

toString

toString(): string
Get the public key as a hex string with a 0x prefix e.g. 0x123456...

Returns string
Inherited from AccountPublicKey.toString
- Defined in src/core/crypto/publicKey.ts:36

toUint8Array

toUint8Array(): Uint8Array
Get the public key in bytes (Uint8Array).

Returns Uint8Array
Uint8Array representation of the public key
Overrides AccountPublicKey.toUint8Array
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:83

verifySignature

verifySignature(args): boolean
Verifies a signed data with a public key
Parameters
- args: VerifySignatureArgs
Returns boolean
Overrides AccountPublicKey.verifySignature
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:59

`Static` deserialize

deserialize(deserializer): Ed25519PublicKey
Parameters
- deserializer: Deserializer
Returns Ed25519PublicKey
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:95

`Static` isPublicKey

isPublicKey(publicKey): publicKey is Ed25519PublicKey
Parameters
- publicKey: AccountPublicKey
Returns publicKey is Ed25519PublicKey
Deprecated
use instanceof Ed25519PublicKey instead.
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:105
