zerolib : A Minimalist ZeroNet Protocol Library¶

zerolib is a minimalist utility library for working with the ZeroNet protocol, which is based on MessagePack and uses deterministic elliptic curve signature. It is written for Python 3.5+

This is a highly experimental library. Before its API is stablized, developers should pay close attention to this documentation, as the public API provided by the library may be changed.

Features include:

Digital signatures

Hashing and data integrity checking

TLS certificate utilities

Packet parsing and formatting

Connection managing

Readers-writer locks

zerolib is inspired by the reference ZeroNet implementation written by shortcutme, but features more consistent API and greater flexibility.

zerolib is written and maintained by MuxZeroNet with help from the contributors and is licensed under the GNU General Public License version 3. If you like this project, please consider running a seed box.

Note To avoid confusion, a private key is usually called a secret key in the documentation.
