blst library for python #146

Open gouri9230 opened 1 year ago

gouri9230 commented 1 year ago

Hello, I am new to the cryptography and blockchain world. I am implementing verkle tree, its proof generation and verification. For this purpose I need to import the blst library to use BLS12_381 elliptic curve. I did git clone blst but i am unable to install it in my ubuntu system and getting error during cmake installation. Could you please tell me how can I install blst library for python, or if there are any other libraries that performs the same functionality as blst supported in python?

You can generate the blst shared object and python interface using the run.me file in the python bindings directiory (https://github.com/supranational/blst/tree/master/bindings/python).

Then just copy the generated files to wherever you need them.
