GitHub - IntersectMBO/cardano-addresses: Addresses and mnemonic manipulation & derivations

Cardano Addresses

Overview

This module provides mnemonic (backup phrase) creation, and conversion of a mnemonic to seed for wallet restoration, and address derivation functionalities.

Documentation

API documentation is available here.

Command-Line

cardano-address comes with a command-line interface for Linux. See the release artifacts or continuous integration artifacts to get a pre-compiled binary, or build a Docker image. The command-line is self explanatory by using --help on various commands and sub-commands.

💡 Most commands read argument from the standard input. This prevent sensitive information from appearing into your shell history and, makes it easy to pipe commands!

How to generate a recovery phrase (phrase.prv)

$ cardano-address recovery-phrase generate --size 15 > phrase.prv

How to generate a payment verification key for shared wallet (addr_shared.vk, stake_shared.vk)

Let's generate extended root private key for shared style:

$ cardano-address key from-recovery-phrase Shared < phrase.prv > root_shared.xsk
root_shared_xsk1hqzfzrgskgnpwskxxrv5khs7ess82ecy8za9l5ef7e0afd2849p3zryje8chk39nxtva0sww5me3pzkej4rvd5cae3q3v8eu7556n6pdrp4fdu8nsglynpmcppxxvfdyzdz5gfq3fefjepxhvqspmuyvmvzteqlc

Now generate payment verification key (role=0 is used). Please note that purpose 1854H is used for multisig.

$ cardano-address key child 1854H/1815H/0H/0/0 < root_shared.xsk | cardano-address key public --without-chain-code > addr_shared.vk
addr_shared_vk1a9h46rvjnqquxz02zyesh0ct29szh7vv9x7r2h87ttmnkgrfgguqhz0mtc

Generating delegation verification key is the similar (the only difference is role=2)

$ cardano-address key child 1854H/1815H/0H/2/0 < root_shared.xsk | cardano-address key public --without-chain-code > stake_shared.vk
stake_shared_vk18a8z5dcrlwene88n84j6dm9yvj5rt296fjtresqnunmacetdcymquyq43z

ℹ️ The last segment in the path is the key index, which can be incremented to derive more keys. Up 2^31-1 keys are possible.

How to construct a multisig script hash (script.hash)

We consider addr_shared.1.vk and addr_shared.2.vk obtained like addr_shared.vk but by replacing the final index by 1 and 2 respectively.

$ cardano-address key child 1854H/1815H/0H/0/1 < root_shared.xsk | cardano-address key public --without-chain-code > addr_shared.1.vk
addr_shared_vk1wgj79fxw2vmxkp85g88nhwlflkxevd77t6wy0nsktn2f663wdcmqcd4fp3
$ cardano-address key child 1854H/1815H/0H/0/2 < root_shared.xsk | cardano-address key public --without-chain-code > addr_shared.2.vk
addr_shared_vk1jthguyss2vffmszq63xsmxlpc9elxnvdyaqk7susl4sppp2s9xqsuszh44
$ cardano-address script hash "all [$(cat addr_shared.1.vk), $(cat addr_shared.2.vk)]" > script.hash
script1gr69m385thgvkrtspk73zmkwk537wxyxuevs2u9cukglvtlkz4k

This script requires the signature from both signing keys corresponding to shared_addr.1.vk and shared_addr.2.vk (i.e., shared_addr.1.sk and shared_addr.2.sk) in order to be valid. Similarly, we could require only one of the two signatures:

We can also use extended verification, eiher payment or delegation, keys. They can be obtained as the non-extended ones by using --with-chain-code option rather than --without-chain-option as above. They will give rise to the same script hash as for verification keys chain code is stripped upon calculation.

$ cardano-address key child 1854H/1815H/0H/0/1 < root_shared.xsk | cardano-address key public --with-chain-code > addr_shared.1.xvk
addr_shared_xvk1wgj79fxw2vmxkp85g88nhwlflkxevd77t6wy0nsktn2f663wdcmqhlfft3dn0qcn6q99dvlfl2ws5duy6w65zks5jgufe60fg839sysavl5pc
$ cardano-address key child 1854H/1815H/0H/0/2 < root_shared.xsk | cardano-address key public --with-chain-code > addr_shared.2.xvk
addr_shared_xvk1jthguyss2vffmszq63xsmxlpc9elxnvdyaqk7susl4sppp2s9xq3zegcxtslhpghmadrlvsphssfjqp3mxg9gca27e35wpu43lqjqnsmjvxuw
$ cardano-address script hash "all [$(cat addr_shared.1.xvk), $(cat addr_shared.2.xvk)]"
script1gr69m385thgvkrtspk73zmkwk537wxyxuevs2u9cukglvtlkz4k

which is equivalent (functionally, but not in terms of hash value) to :

$ cardano-address script hash "at_least 1 [$(cat addr_shared.1.xvk), $(cat addr_shared.2.xvk)]"
script13uf3fz3ts5srpjc5zcfe977uvnyvp36wcvxuudryegz0zpjlx6a

How to construct a multisig script hash with timelocks

$  cardano-address script hash "all [$(cat addr_shared.1.xvk), $(cat addr_shared.2.xvk), active_from 100, active_until 120]"
script1nugjzwfs2t9htl7s3dv9ajnd5us8pctpa8aj4ank8dnd6d6unul

How to validate a script

$  cardano-address script validate "at_least 1 [$(cat addr_shared.1.xvk), $(cat addr_shared.2.xvk), $(cat addr_shared.2.xvk)]"
Validated.

$  cardano-address script validate --recommended  "at_least 1 [$(cat addr_shared.1.xvk), $(cat addr_shared.2.xvk), $(cat addr_shared.2.xvk)]"
Not validated: The list inside a script has duplicate keys (which is not recommended)..

Create extended signing key using cardano-cli
$ cardano-cli key convert-cardano-address-key --shelley-payment-key --signing-key-file key.xsk --out-file key.skey
{
    "type": "PaymentExtendedSigningKeyShelley_ed25519_bip32",
    "description": "",
    "cborHex": "5880b0bf46232c7f0f58ad333030e43ffbea7c2bb6f8135bd05fb0d343ade8453c5eacc7ac09f77e16b635832522107eaa9f56db88c615f537aa6025e6c23da98ae8fbbbf6410e24532f35e9279febb085d2cc05b3b2ada1df77ea1951eb694f3834b0be1868d1c36ef9089b3b094f5fe1d783e4d5fea14e2034c0397bee50e65a1a"
}

The cborhex here contains of 4 parts:
1. prefix 5880 - bytestring of 128 bytes
2. signing key (64 bytes) - b0bf46232c7f0f58ad333030e43ffbea7c2bb6f8135bd05fb0d343ade8453c5eacc7ac09f77e16b635832522107eaa9f56db88c615f537aa6025e6c23da98ae8
3. verification key (32 bytes) - fbbbf6410e24532f35e9279febb085d2cc05b3b2ada1df77ea1951eb694f3834
4. chain code (32 bytes) - b0be1868d1c36ef9089b3b094f5fe1d783e4d5fea14e2034c0397bee50e65a1a

Create corresponding verification key using cardano-cli
$ cardano-cli key verification-key --signing-key-file key.skey --verification-key-file key.vkey
{

}
The cborhex here contains of 3 parts:
1. prefix 5840 - bytestring of 64 bytes
2. verification key (32 bytes) - fbbbf6410e24532f35e9279febb085d2cc05b3b2ada1df77ea1951eb694f3834
3. chain code (32 bytes) - b0be1868d1c36ef9089b3b094f5fe1d783e4d5fea14e2034c0397bee50e65a1a

Rule for prefixes:
  - CBOR-encoded bytestring (which is what the 58 identifies)
  - size (80 means 128 bytes, whereas 40 means 64 bytes, 20 means 32 bytes)

Create verification key hash using cardano-cli
$ cardano-cli address key-hash --payment-verification-key-file key.vkey > key.hash
0185545935760c5e370d01e6f4fedbb89b7fd79e115f2837cfab9ea8

Alternatively, we can create non-extended key
$ cardano-address key public --without-chain-code < key.xsk > key.vk
addr_vk1lwalvsgwy3fj7d0fy707hvy96txqtvaj4ksa7al2r9g7k6208q6qmrv9k3

Also, take notice that signing key can be translated to cborhex:
$ cat key.xsk | bech32
b0bf46232c7f0f58ad333030e43ffbea7c2bb6f8135bd05fb0d343ade8453c5eacc7ac09f77e16b635832522107eaa9f56db88c615f537aa6025e6c23da98ae8b0be1868d1c36ef9089b3b094f5fe1d783e4d5fea14e2034c0397bee50e65a1a
(signing key and chain code appended)

Moreover, basing on key.vk one can get hash
$ cardano-cli address key-hash --payment-verification-key $(cat key.vk) > key1.hash
0185545935760c5e370d01e6f4fedbb89b7fd79e115f2837cfab9ea8

Within cardano-addresses one can get cborhex of verification key (with chain code)
$ cardano-address key public --with-chain-code < key.xsk | bech32
fbbbf6410e24532f35e9279febb085d2cc05b3b2ada1df77ea1951eb694f3834b0be1868d1c36ef9089b3b094f5fe1d783e4d5fea14e2034c0397bee50e65a1a
(verification key and chain code appended)

Within cardano-addresses one can get cborhex of verification key (without chain code)
$ cardano-address key public --without-chain-code < key.xsk | bech32
fbbbf6410e24532f35e9279febb085d2cc05b3b2ada1df77ea1951eb694f3834
(verification key without chain code)

Then, we can get compute hash (but here we need to use without chain code):
$ cardano-address key public --without-chain-code < key.xsk | cardano-address key hash | bech32
0185545935760c5e370d01e6f4fedbb89b7fd79e115f2837cfab9ea8

NPM Package

There is an experimental NPM module for JavaScript and TypeScript available, which works in both NodeJS and the browser.

Here is a code sample showing how it can be used:

var cardanoAddresses = require('cardano-addresses')
var addr = 'addr1gqtnpvdhqrtpd4g424fcaq7k0ufuzyadt7djygf8qdyzevuph3wczvf2dwyx5u'

cardanoAddresses.inspectAddress(addr)
  .then(info => console.log(info)
