Package direct defines an implementation of an on-disk, EIP-2335 keystore.json
|
|
|
|
approach towards defining validator accounts in Prysm. A validating private key is
|
|
|
|
encrypted using a passphrase and its resulting encrypted file is stored as a
|
|
|
|
keystore.json file under a unique, human-readable, account namespace. This direct keymanager approach
|
2020-08-11 23:15:06 +00:00
|
|
|
relies on storing account information on-disk, making it trivial to import, backup and
|
2020-07-03 23:00:02 +00:00
|
|
|
list all associated accounts for a user.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
EIP-2335 is a keystore format defined by https://eips.ethereum.org/EIPS/eip-2335 for
|
|
|
|
storing and defining encryption for BLS12-381 private keys, utilized by eth2. This keystore.json
|
|
|
|
format is not compatible with the current keystore standard used in eth1 due to a lack of
|
|
|
|
support for KECCAK-256. Passwords utilized for key encryptions are strings of arbitrary unicode characters.
|
|
|
|
The password is first converted to its NFKD representation, stripped of control codes specified
|
|
|
|
in the EIP link above, and finally the password is UTF-8 encoded.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Accounts are stored on disk according to the following structure using human-readable
|
|
|
|
account namespaces as directories:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
wallet-dir/
|
|
|
|
keymanageropts.json
|
|
|
|
personally-conscious-echidna/
|
|
|
|
keystore.json
|
|
|
|
deposit_data.ssz
|
|
|
|
deposit_transaction.rlp
|
|
|
|
shy-extroverted-robin/
|
|
|
|
keystore.json
|
|
|
|
deposit_data.ssz
|
|
|
|
deposit_transaction.rlp
|
|
|
|
passwords/
|
|
|
|
personally-conscious-echidna.pass
|
|
|
|
shy-extroverted-robin.pass
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
EIP-2335 keystores are stored alongside deposit data credentials for the
|
|
|
|
created validator accounts. An additional deposit_transaction.rlp file is stored under the account,
|
|
|
|
containing a raw bytes eth1 transaction data ready to be used to submit a 32ETH deposit to the
|
|
|
|
eth2 deposit contract for a validator. Passwords are stored in a separate directory for easy unlocking
|
|
|
|
of the associated keystores by an account namespace.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This direct keymanager can be customized via a keymanageropts.json file, which has the following
|
|
|
|
JSON schema as its options:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
2020-07-10 05:49:56 +00:00
|
|
|
"direct_eip_version": "EIP-2335"
|
2020-07-03 23:00:02 +00:00
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Currently, the only supported value for `direct_eip_version` is "EIP-2335".
