Indy Crypto

This is the shared crypto library for Hyperledger Indy components.

Hyperledger Indy provides a distributed-ledger-based foundation for self-sovereign identity.

The major artifacts of the Indy Crypto are:

  • С-callable library interface
  • Rust сrate
  • Python wrapper

All bugs, stories, and backlog for this project are managed through Hyperledger's Jira in project IS (note that regular Indy tickets are in the INDY project instead...). Also, join us on Jira's Rocket.Chat at #indy-sdk to discuss.

Building Indy Crypto

Ubuntu 16.04

  1. Install Rust and rustup (https://www.rust-lang.org/install.html).

  2. Install pre-requirements:

    For Ubuntu 16.04

    apt-get update && \
    apt-get install -y \
    build-essential \
    pkg-config \
    cmake \
    libssl-dev
    

    For Windows

    • Download the prebuilt dependencies here
    • Extract them into the folder C:\BIN\x64. Note it really doesn't matter where you put these as long as you remember where so you can set the environment variables to this path
    • Point path to this directory using environment variables:
      • set OPENSSL_DIR=C:\BIN\x64
      • set PATH=C:\BIN\x64\lib;%PATH%
  3. Checkout and build the library:

    git clone https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-crypto.git
    cd ./indy-crypto/libindy-crypto
    cargo build
    cd ..
    
  4. Run tests

    cd libindy-crypto
    cargo test
    

Note: By default cargo build produce debug artifacts with a large amount of run-time checks. It's good for development, but this build can be in 100+ times slower for some math calculation. If you would like to analyse CPU performance of libindy-crypto for your use case, you have to use release artifacts (cargo build --release).
