Methods

__init__(params)
check_params_are_valid()	Checks whether the values within this parameters object conform to the format instructions, whether the curve identifier encoded in the public key corresponds to the key type, and whether the point lies on the elliptic curve indicated by the identifier.
clear()
conversion_functions()	Conversion functions for key objects of the following types:
convert_from(key_object)	Constructs and initializes a parameters object for this key type from attributes contained in the given object.
convert_to(destination_class)	Creates and initializes an object of the given type containing the values of this parameters object.
copy()
fromkeys(iterable[, value])
generate_private_params(**kwargs)	Constructs and initializes a ECDSA private key parameters object with generated values.
get(k[,d])
get_curve_identifier()	The value 'nistp256'.
get_curve_name()	The value 'secp256r1'.
get_curve_oid()	The value '1.2.840.10045.3.1.7'.
get_format_instructions_dict()	The Pascal-style byte stream format instructions for the parameters of a key of this type.
items()
keys()
pop(k[,d])	If key is not found, d is returned if given, otherwise KeyError is raised.
popitem()	as a 2-tuple; but raise KeyError if D is empty.
setdefault(k[,d])
update([E, ]**F)	If E present and has a .keys() method, does: for k in E: D[k] = E[k] If E present and lacks .keys() method, does: for (k, v) in E: D[k] = v In either case, this is followed by: for k, v in F.items(): D[k] = v
values()

Attributes

CURVE_IDENTIFIER	The identifier, as specified in RFC 5656, of a set of elliptic curve domain parameters.
CURVE_NAME	The name of the elliptic curve domain parameters that corresponds to CURVE_IDENTIFIER.
CURVE_OID	The X.509 object identifier of the elliptic curve domain parameters that corresponds to CURVE_IDENTIFIER.
FORMAT_INSTRUCTIONS_DICT	The Pascal-style byte stream format instructions for the parameters of a key of this type.

check_params_are_valid()

Checks whether the values within this parameters object conform to the format instructions, whether the curve identifier encoded in the public key corresponds to the key type, and whether the point lies on the elliptic curve indicated by the identifier.

Raises

UserWarning – A parameter value is missing or does not have a type that matches the format instructions for this key type, the curve identifier encoded in the public key corresponds to the key type, or the point does not lie on the elliptic curve indicated by the identifier.

Return type

None

clear() → None.  Remove all items from D.

classmethod conversion_functions()

Conversion functions for key objects of the following types:

• cryptography.hazmat.primitives.asymmetric.ec.EllipticCurvePrivateKey

Return type

Mapping[Type[Any], ConversionFunctions]

Returns

A typing.Mapping from the above types of key objects to functions that take key objects of these types and return parameter values.

classmethod convert_from(key_object)

Constructs and initializes a parameters object for this key type from attributes contained in the given object.

This classmethod searches conversion_functions for a class that is a superclass of key_object. If one is found, it returns the parameters object from the typing.Mapping returned by the corresponding object_to_mapping function. Otherwise, it searches its subclasses’ conversion_functions, traversing pre-order.

Parameters

key_object (Any) – An object containing key parameter values.

Raises

NotImplementedError – key_object is not of a supported type, or it does not contain the attributes necessary to construct a parameters object of this class.

Return type

PublicKeyParams

convert_to(destination_class)

Creates and initializes an object of the given type containing the values of this parameters object.

This method searches conversion_functions for a class that is a subclass of key_object. If one is found, it passes this parameters object to the corresponding mapping_to_object. Otherwise, it searches its superclasses’ conversion_functions in the same way, in method resolution order, up to and including PublicKeyParams.

Parameters

destination_class (Type[Any]) – The type of the object to which the values of this parameters object are to be converted.

Raises

• ValueError – destination_class is not a class.

• ImportError – destination_class cannot be imported.

• NotImplementedError – Converting this parameters object to an object of type destination_class is not supported.

Return type

Any

classmethod generate_private_params(**kwargs)

Constructs and initializes a ECDSA private key parameters object with generated values. If called on the ECDSAPrivateKeyParams class, delegates to ECDSA_NISTP256_PrivateKeyParams.

Parameters

kwargs (Any) – Keyword arguments consumed to generate parameter values.

Return type

Union[TypeVar(ECDSAPrivateKeyParamsTypeVar, bound= ECDSAPrivateKeyParams), ECDSA_NISTP256_PrivateKeyParams]

Returns

A private key parameters object with generated values valid for a ECDSA private key.

get(k[, d]) → D[k] if k in D, else d.  d defaults to None.

static get_curve_identifier()

The value 'nistp256'.

Return type

str

static get_curve_name()

The value 'secp256r1'.

Return type

str

static get_curve_oid()

The value '1.2.840.10045.3.1.7'.

Return type

str

classmethod get_format_instructions_dict()

The Pascal-style byte stream format instructions for the parameters of a key of this type.

Return type

Mapping[str, Union[str, PascalStyleFormatInstruction, PascalStyleFormatInstructionStringLengthSize]]

items() → a set-like object providing a view on D's items

keys() → a set-like object providing a view on D's keys

pop(k[, d]) → v, remove specified key and return the corresponding value.

If key is not found, d is returned if given, otherwise KeyError is raised.

popitem() → (k, v), remove and return some (key, value) pair

as a 2-tuple; but raise KeyError if D is empty.

setdefault(k[, d]) → D.get(k,d), also set D[k]=d if k not in D

update([E, ]**F) → None.  Update D from mapping/iterable E and F.

If E present and has a .keys() method, does: for k in E: D[k] = E[k] If E present and lacks .keys() method, does: for (k, v) in E: D[k] = v In either case, this is followed by: for k, v in F.items(): D[k] = v

values() → an object providing a view on D's values
