Struct InitialMessage

pub struct InitialMessage {
    pub public_key: Curve25519PublicKey,
    pub ciphertext: Vec<u8>,
}

The initial message, sent by the ECIES channel establisher.

This message embeds the public key of the message creator allowing the other side to establish a channel using this message.

This key is unauthenticated so authentication needs to happen out-of-band in order for the established channel to become secure.

Fields

public_key: Curve25519PublicKey

The ephemeral public key that was used to establish the ECIES channel.

ciphertext: Vec<u8>

The ciphertext of the initial message.

Implementations

impl InitialMessage

pub fn encode(&self) -> String

Encode the message as a string.

The string will contain the base64-encoded Curve25519 public key and the ciphertext of the message separated by a |.

pub fn decode(message: &str) -> Result<Self, MessageDecodeError>

Attempt do decode a string into a InitialMessage.

Trait Implementations

impl Debug for InitialMessage

fn fmt(&self, f: &mut Formatter<'_>) -> Result

Formats the value using the given formatter.

impl PartialEq for InitialMessage

fn eq(&self, other: &InitialMessage) -> bool

Tests for self and other values to be equal, and is used by ==.

fn ne(&self, other: &Rhs) -> bool

Tests for !=. The default implementation is almost always sufficient, and should not be overridden without very good reason.
