Constructors

constructor

new Ed25519PrivateKey(hexInput, strict?): Ed25519PrivateKey
Create a new PrivateKey instance from a Uint8Array or String.

Parameters
- hexInput: HexInput
  HexInput (string or Uint8Array)
- Optionalstrict: boolean
  If true, private key must AIP-80 compliant.
Returns Ed25519PrivateKey
Overrides Serializable.constructor
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:215

Methods

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 Serializable.bcsToBytes
- Defined in src/bcs/serializer.ts:29

bcsToHex

bcsToHex(): Hex
Converts the BCS-serialized bytes of a value into a Hex instance. This function provides a Hex representation of the BCS-serialized data for easier handling and manipulation.

Returns Hex
A Hex instance with the BCS-serialized bytes loaded into its underlying Uint8Array.
Inherited from Serializable.bcsToHex
- Defined in src/bcs/serializer.ts:40

publicKey

publicKey(): Ed25519PublicKey
Derive the Ed25519PublicKey for this private key.

Returns Ed25519PublicKey
Ed25519PublicKey - The derived public key corresponding to the private key.
Implementation of PrivateKey.publicKey
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:286

serialize

serialize(serializer): void
Parameters
- serializer: Serializer
Returns void
Overrides Serializable.serialize
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:347

sign

sign(message): Ed25519Signature
Sign the given message with the private key. This function generates a digital signature for the specified message, ensuring its authenticity and integrity.
Parameters
- message: HexInput
  A message as a string or Uint8Array in HexInput format.
Returns Ed25519Signature
A digital signature for the provided message.
Implementation of PrivateKey.sign
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:298

toAIP80String

toAIP80String(): string
Get the private key as a AIP-80 compliant hex string.

Read about AIP-80

Returns string
AIP-80 compliant string representation of the private key.
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:339

toHexString

toHexString(): string
Get the private key as a hex string with the 0x prefix.

Returns string
string representation of the private key.
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:328

toString

toString(): string
Get the private key as a hex string with the 0x prefix.

Returns string
string representation of the private key.
Overrides Serializable.toString
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:319

toStringWithoutPrefix

toStringWithoutPrefix(): string
Returns the hex string representation of the Serializable value without the 0x prefix.

Returns string
the hex format as a string without 0x prefix.
Inherited from Serializable.toStringWithoutPrefix
- Defined in src/bcs/serializer.ts:49

toUint8Array

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

Returns Uint8Array
Uint8Array representation of the private key
Implementation of PrivateKey.toUint8Array
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:310

`Static`deserialize

deserialize(deserializer): Ed25519PrivateKey
Parameters
- deserializer: Deserializer
Returns Ed25519PrivateKey
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:351

`Static`fromDerivationPath

fromDerivationPath(path, mnemonics): Ed25519PrivateKey
Derives a private key from a mnemonic seed phrase using a specified BIP44 path. To derive multiple keys from the same phrase, change the path

IMPORTANT: Ed25519 supports hardened derivation only, as it lacks a key homomorphism, making non-hardened derivation impossible.
Parameters
- path: string
  The BIP44 path used for key derivation.
- mnemonics: string
  The mnemonic seed phrase from which the key will be derived.
Returns Ed25519PrivateKey
Throws
Error if the provided path is not a valid hardened path.
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:247

`Static`generate

generate(): Ed25519PrivateKey
Generate a new random private key.

Returns Ed25519PrivateKey
Ed25519PrivateKey A newly generated Ed25519 private key.
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:232

`Static`isPrivateKey

isPrivateKey(privateKey): privateKey is Ed25519PrivateKey
Determines if the provided private key is an instance of Ed25519PrivateKey.
Parameters
- privateKey: PrivateKey
  The private key to check.
Returns privateKey is Ed25519PrivateKey
A boolean indicating whether the private key is an Ed25519PrivateKey.

Deprecated
Use instanceof Ed25519PrivateKey instead.
- Defined in src/core/crypto/ed25519.ts:366
