v1.0.3 CIP-105 update implementation
v1.0.2 - \u0000 fix
During testing, it was discovered that some Daedalus addresses (which can contain arbitrary data by design) included so-called "null characters" or \u0000. This is not an issue in terms of protocol or security, but it is problematic for PostgreSQL, which cannot handle this character within JSONB format.
Other extensions for working with CBOR are also subject to this issue.
Release Notes:
- It was decided to remove \u0000 from the decoded text if presents;
v1.0.1 - robust cbor decoding
v1.0.0
Release Notes
This release of the pg_cardano PostgreSQL extension provides a comprehensive set of tools for working with cryptographic operations and Cardano-specific functionalities directly within PostgreSQL:
1. Base58 Encoding/Decoding:
- Encode and decode data using the Base58 encoding scheme, which is widely used in blockchain applications for compact and human-readable representations of binary data.
2. Bech32 Encoding/Decoding:
- Supports encoding and decoding of Bech32, a common format used in Cardano for addresses and other data structures.
3. CBOR (Concise Binary Object Representation) Encoding/Decoding:
- Enables encoding of JSONB objects into CBOR format and decoding CBOR data back into JSONB format.
4. Blake2b Hashing:
- Provides Blake2b cryptographic hashing, which allows users to hash data with an output length configurable between 1 and 64 bytes.
5. Ed25519 Digital Signatures:
- Allows creation of Ed25519 signatures using a provided secret key, as well as verification of signatures using the corresponding public key.
6. Cardano-specific Tools:
DRep ID Builders (CIP-105 and CIP-129 Support):
- The extension supports the encoding of DRep IDs (Delegated Representative Identifiers) using both CIP-105 and CIP-129 formats.
Shelley Address Builders and Extractors:
- Create Shelley-era addresses (base, enterprise, reward) using payment and/or stake credentials, with support for both keyhash and script credentials.
- Extract payment and stake credentials from Bech32 Shelley addresses.
- Identify the type of Shelley address (e.g., payment-key, stake-key, script-key, etc.), making it easier to categorize and process addresses within PostgreSQL queries.
