php 5.4.0 or newer.
php5-gmp needs to be installed.
If you want to launch the test file you need to be under a unix system with libbitcoin intalled on it.
Installation
Best way is to use composer
composer require bitcoin-php/bitcoin-ecdsa
Alternatively add the following snippet to your composer.json
"bitcoin-php/bitcoin-ecdsa" : ">=1.3"
Instantiation
use BitcoinPHP\BitcoinECDSA\BitcoinECDSA;
require_once("src/BitcoinPHP/BitcoinECDSA/BitcoinECDSA.php");
$bitcoinECDSA = new BitcoinECDSA();Set a private key
$bitcoinECDSA->setPrivateKey($k);examples of private keys :
4C28FCA386C7A227600B2FE50B7CAE11EC86D3BF1FBE471BE89827E19D72AA1D 00FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFEFFFFFC
Generate a random private key
$bitcoinECDSA->generateRandomPrivateKey($nonce);The nonce is optional, typically the nonce is a chunk of random data you get from the user. This can be mouse coordinates. Using a nonce adds randomness, which means the generated private key is stronger.
Get the private key
$bitcoinECDSA->getPrivateKey();Returns the private key.
Get the Wif
$bitcoinECDSA->getWif();returns the private key under the Wallet Import Format
Get the Public Key
$bitcoinECDSA->getPubKey();Returns the compressed public key. The compressed PubKey starts with 0x02 if its y coordinate is even and 0x03 if it is odd, the next 32 bytes corresponds to the x coordinates.
Example : 0226c50013603b085fbc26411d5d7e564b252d88964eedc4e01251d2d495e92c29
Get the Uncompressed Public Key
$bitcoinECDSA->getUncompressedPubKey();Returns the uncompressed PubKey. The uncompressed PubKey starts with 0x04, the next 32 bytes are the x coordinates, the last 32 bytes are the y coordinates.
Example : 04c80e8af3f1b7816a18aa24f242fc0740e9c4027d67c76dacf4ce32d2e5aace241c426fd288a9976ca750f1b192d3acd89dfbeca07ef27f3e5eb5d482354c4249
Get the coordinates of the Public Key
$bitcoinECDSA->getPubKeyPoints();Returns an array containing the x and y coordinates of the public key
Example : Array ( [x] => a69243f3c4c047aba38d7ac3660317629c957ab1f89ea42343aee186538a34f8 [y] => b6d862f39819060378542a3bb43ff76b5d7bb23fc012f09c3cd2724bebe0b0bd )
Get the Address
$bitcoinECDSA->getAddress();Returns the compressed Bitcoin Address.
Get the uncompressed Address
$bitcoinECDSA->getUncompressedAddress();Returns the uncompressed Bitcoin Address.
Validate an address
$bitcoinECDSA->validateAddress($address);Returns true if the address is valid and false if it isn't
Validate a Wif key
$bitcoinECDSA->validateWifKey($wif);Returns true if the WIF key is valid and false if it isn't
Sign a message
$bitcoinECDSA->signMessage('message');Returns a satoshi client standard signed message.
verify a message
$bitcoinECDSA->checkSignatureForRawMessage($signedMessage);Returns true if the signature is matching the address and false if it isn't.
sign a sha256 hash
$bitcoinECDSA->signHash($hash);Returns a DER encoded hexadecimal signature.
verify a signature
$bitcoinECDSA->checkDerSignature($pubKey, $signature, $hash)Returns true if the signature is matching the public key and false if it isn't.
