### rust-secp256k1
|
|
|
|
`rust-secp256k1` is a wrapper around ,
|
|
a C library by Pieter Wuille for producing ECDSA signatures using the SECG curve
|
|
`secp256k1`. This library
|
|
* exposes type-safe Rust bindings for all `libsecp256k1` functions
|
|
* implements key generation
|
|
* implements deterministic nonce generation via RFC6979
|
|
* implements many unit tests, adding to those already present in `libsecp256k1`
|
|
* makes no allocations (except in unit tests) for efficiency and use in freestanding implementations
|
|
|
|
### Contributing
|
|
|
|
Contributions to this library are welcome. A few guidelines:
|
|
|
|
* Any breaking changes must have an accompanied entry in CHANGELOG.md
|
|
* No new dependencies, please.
|
|
* No crypto should be implemented in Rust, with the possible exception of hash functions. Cryptographic contributions should be directed upstream to libsecp256k1.
|
|
* This library should always compile with any combination of features on **Rust 1.29**.

## A note on Rust 1.29 support
|
|
|
|
The build dependency `cc` might require a more recent version of the Rust compiler.
|
|
To ensure compilation with Rust 1.29.0, pin its version in your `Cargo.lock`
|
|
with `cargo update -p cc --precise 1.0.41`. If you're using `secp256k1` in a library,
|
|
to make sure it compiles in CI, you'll need to generate a lockfile first.
|
|
Example for Travis CI:
|
|
```yml
|
|
before_script:
|
|
- if [ "$TRAVIS_RUST_VERSION" == "1.29.0" ]; then
|
|
cargo generate-lockfile --verbose && cargo update -p cc --precise "1.0.41" --verbose;
|
|
fi
|
|
```
