Convert Python EC Key Pair Generation to Node.js Using Crypto Module

Answered using GPT 40 by GPT40

Question:

def generate_ec_key_pair(): curve = ec.SECP256R1() # generate ec key pair private_key = ec.generate_private_key(curve) public_key = private_key.public_key()

# get the private key bytes
private_key_bytes = private_key.private_numbers().private_value.to_bytes(32, "big")
# convert the private key bytes to a hex string
private_key_hex = private_key_bytes.hex()

# get the X and Y coordinates of the public key as bytes
x_coordinate_bytes = public_key.public_numbers().x.to_bytes(32, "big")
y_coordinate_bytes = public_key.public_numbers().y.to_bytes(32, "big")

# concatenate the X and Y coordinates and convert them to a hex string
public_key_hex = "04" + x_coordinate_bytes.hex() + y_coordinate_bytes.hex()

return private_key_hex, public_key_hex 转成nodejs
Answer:

To convert the given Python code for generating an EC key pair to Node.js, you can use the crypto module available in Node.js. Below is the equivalent code in Node.js:

const crypto = require('crypto');

// Generate EC key pair
const { privateKey, publicKey } = crypto.generateKeyPairSync('ec', {
  namedCurve: 'prime256v1', // Equivalent to SECP256R1
  publicKeyEncoding: {
    type: 'spki',
    format: 'der'
  },
  privateKeyEncoding: {
    type: 'pkcs8',
    format: 'der'
  }
});

// Get the private key bytes
const privateKeyBytes = privateKey.slice(privateKey.length - 32);
const privateKeyHex = privateKeyBytes.toString('hex');

// Get the public key bytes
const publicKeyBytes = publicKey.slice(publicKey.length - 65);
const xCoordinateBytes = publicKeyBytes.slice(1, 33);
const yCoordinateBytes = publicKeyBytes.slice(33, 65);

// Concatenate the X and Y coordinates and convert them to a hex string
const publicKeyHex = '04' + xCoordinateBytes.toString('hex') + yCoordinateBytes.toString('hex');

console.log('Private Key (Hex):', privateKeyHex);
console.log('Public Key (Hex):', publicKeyHex);

Explanation:

  1. Generate EC Key Pair: The crypto.generateKeyPairSync function is used to generate the EC key pair with the named curve prime256v1, which is equivalent to SECP256R1.
  2. Private Key: The private key is extracted from the DER-encoded private key. The last 32 bytes represent the private key value.
  3. Public Key: The public key is extracted from the DER-encoded public key. The first byte is a prefix (0x04), followed by the X and Y coordinates, each 32 bytes long.
  4. Hex Conversion: The X and Y coordinates are concatenated and converted to a hex string, prefixed with '04'.

This code will generate the EC key pair and print the private and public keys in hexadecimal format, similar to the Python code provided.
