curve-p256

This is a JS implementation of secp256r1 (P-256) elliptic curve encryption algorithm library, used for ECDH key exchange & ECDSA signing. This library is extract from @noble/curves.

- ✍️ ECDSA
signatures compliant with RFC6979
- 🤝 Elliptic Curve Diffie-Hellman ECDH
- 🔒 Supports hedged signatures guarding against fault attacks

In addition, I have added support for Wechat Mini Programs. Since @noble/curves depends on the instance methods of Crypto in the Web Crypto API, which are not yet supported by Mini Programs, I have implemented these methods myself.

这是一个 JS 实现的 secp256r1 (P-256) 椭圆曲线加密算法库，用于 ECDH 密钥交换和 ECDSA 签名。这个库是从@noble/curves 中提取出来的。

- ✍️ 符合 RFC6979 标准的 ECDSA 签名
- 🤝 椭圆曲线迪菲-赫尔曼 ECDH 密钥交换
- 🔒 支持防护性签名，可抵御故障攻击

另外，我对微信小程序做了支持。由于 @noble/curves 依赖了 Web Crypto API 中 Crypto 的实例方法，但小程序尚未支持，所以我实现了这些方法。

Usage

NPM:

``bash
npm i curve-p256
`

YARN:

`bash
yarn add curve-p256
`

Example:

$3

`js
import { p256 } from 'curve-p256';

const privBob = p256.utils.randomPrivateKey();
const pubBob = p256.getPublicKey(privBob);

const privAlice = p256.utils.randomPrivateKey();
const pubAlice = p256.getPublicKey(privAlice);

const shared1 = p256.getSharedSecret(privBob, pubAlice);
const shared2 = p256.getSharedSecret(privAlice, pubBob);
console.log(shared1 === shared2); // true
`

$3

`js
import { p256 } from 'curve-p256';

const priv = p256.utils.randomPrivateKey();
const pub = p256.getPublicKey(priv); // Convert private key to public.

const msg = new TextEncoder().encode('Hello world!');
const sig = p256.sign(msg, priv); // Sign msg with private key.

const isValid = p256.verify(sig, msg, pub);
console.log(isValid); // true

`

$3


`js
import { p256 } from 'curve-p256';

const priv = p256.utils.randomPrivateKey();
const pub = p256.getPublicKey(priv);

const msg = new TextEncoder().encode('Hello world!');
const sig = p256.sign(msg, priv); // {prehash: true} option is available

const pub2 = sig.recoverPublicKey(msg).toRawBytes(); // public key recovery
console.log(pub === pub2); // true
`

$3

`js
import { bytesToHex, hexToBytes, concatBytes } from 'curve-p256';

// hex = 'deadbeef'
const hex = bytesToHex(Uint8Array.from([0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef]));

// bytes = Uint8Array.from([0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef])
const bytes = hexToBytes('deadbeef');

// bytes = Uint8Array.from([0xde, 0xad, 0xbe, 0xef])
const concated = concatBytes(Uint8Array.from([0xde, 0xad]), Uint8Array.from([0xbe, 0xef]));
