Functions

func CompressECPBytes

func CompressECPBytes(b []byte) ([]byte, error)

CompressECPBytes takes the uncompressed byte representation of an EC point and returns corresponding compressed representation.

func FromPEMFile

func FromPEMFile(o encoding.BinaryUnmarshaler, f, pemType string) error

func GenerateRandomBytes

func GenerateRandomBytes(n int) ([]byte, error)

GenerateRandomBytes return slice of bytes of specified size of cryptographically secure random numbers. Refer to https://golang.org/pkg/crypto/rand/ for details regarding sources of entropy.

func ToPEMFile

func ToPEMFile(o encoding.BinaryMarshaler, f, pemType string) error

To be used as main entry point by all calls (need to actually do it)
