Struct vodozemac::ecies::Ecies

pub struct Ecies { /* private fields */ }

An unestablished ECIES session.

Implementations

impl Ecies

pub fn new() -> Self

Create a new, random, unestablished ECIES session.

This method will use the MATRIX_QR_CODE_LOGIN info. If you are using this for a different purpose, consider using the Ecies::with_info() method.

pub fn with_info(info: &str) -> Self

Create a new, random, unestablished ECIES session with the given application info.

The application info will be used to derive the various secrets and provide domain separation.

pub fn establish_outbound_channel( self, their_public_key: Curve25519PublicKey, initial_plaintext: &[u8], ) -> Result<OutboundCreationResult, Error>

Create an EstablishedEcies session using the other side’s Curve25519 public key and an initial plaintext.

After the channel has been established, we can encrypt messages to send to the other side. The other side uses the initial message to establishes the same channel on its side.

pub fn establish_inbound_channel( self, message: &InitialMessage, ) -> Result<InboundCreationResult, Error>

Create a EstablishedEcies from an InitialMessage encrypted by the other side.

pub fn public_key(&self) -> Curve25519PublicKey

Get our Curve25519PublicKey.

This public key needs to be sent to the other side to be able to establish an ECIES channel.
