Rainbow-go PQC

This is a simple bindings project for implementation of Rainbow PQC into Go/Golang.

Instructions

1. Run the bash script with bash build.sh. This will generate all the *.so libraries for all the implementations. (NOTE: you may generate only a specific library by passing in the desired implementation and version of rainbow).

2. Chenge the main package to use the desired implementation and version.

3. Add the folder to your project as a subfolder.

Functions

The bindings are very simple and only have 3 functions:

• func GenerateKeys(publicKey, privateKey string)
• func Sign(privateKey, msg string) []byte
• func Verify(publicKey string, sig []byte, msg string) bool
