The privkey.Generate method here was a custom-made method for deriving a private key from another private key. This function is currently not used anywhere in our codebase, and has not been reviewed enough that it would be secure to use. This removes that method. We should adopt the official ed25519 HD derivation once that has been standardized, in order to fulfill this need. closes #2000
crypto
crypto is the cryptographic package adapted for Tendermint's uses
Importing it
To get the interfaces,
import "github.com/tendermint/tendermint/crypto"
For any specific algorithm, use its specific module e.g.
import "github.com/tendermint/tendermint/crypto/ed25519"
If you want to decode bytes into one of the types, but don't care about the specific algorithm, use
import "github.com/tendermint/tendermint/crypto/amino"
Binary encoding
For Binary encoding, please refer to the Tendermint encoding spec.
JSON Encoding
crypto .Bytes()
uses Amino:binary encoding, but Amino:JSON is also supported.
Example Amino:JSON encodings:
