How to export keystore from the wallets which created by Mnemonic Phrase #56

Open Jonyzfu14 opened 6 years ago

Jonyzfu14 commented 6 years ago

We can import a wallet using Mnemonic Phrase, but how to export keystore file after this wallet generated. Shall I use keystore.swift you wrote?

Yes, use keystore.swift to export private keys encrypted as keystore files.

Btw, how do you import mnemonics? I actually need this right now...

@koraykoska hey I just wonder, so the lib does not support importing an account by mnemonic yet, right?

koraykoska commented 4 years ago

@sche No. I started an implementation a while back. But I did not finish it and it's been too long to get into it fast. If you create an IssueHunt issue I can look into it. Or you can always do it yourself and make a PR.

@sche Actually, maybe it's even better to make a custom library like keystore.swift. I like keeping this repository clean and working only with raw bytes.
