(static) jiffClient.utils.bit_combinator(deferrednon-null, startnon-null, lengthnon-null, initialnullable, funcnon-null, promisifyopt, nullable, valufyopt, nullable)
- Description:
A high level combinator for iteration of bit arrays It executes a round of (func) starting from index start to the length (supports backwards if start > length) excluding length Every round is blocked until the previous one finishes and the promise produced by it is resolved The final value is used to resolve deferred

Parameters:
| Name | Type | Attributes | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
deferred |
Deferred | the deferred to resolve with the final output |
|
start |
number | the index to start from |
|
length |
number | the index to stop at (excluding it) |
|
initial |
object |
<nullable> |
an initial aggregator value |
func |
function | the aggregator function to apply to the elements in order, takes the index and the aggregator value so far |
|
promisify |
function |
<optional> <nullable> |
if initial is not null, this is called prior to starting combinator, to turn initial into a promise of the actually used initial value(in case it has to be resolved), defaults to promisifying a SecretShare with .wThen |
valufy |
function |
<optional> <nullable> |
applied to the final result to turn it into a value, which is then used to resolve deferred, defaults to getting value of a SecretShare |
(static) jiffClient.utils.many_secret_shares(count, holders, threshold, Zp) → {object}
- Description:
Create an array of secret shares and associated deferred.
- Source:
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
count |
number | number of secret shares |
holders |
Array | the parties that hold all the corresponding shares (must be sorted) |
threshold |
number | the min number of parties needed to reconstruct the secret |
Zp |
number | the mod under which this share was created |
Returns:
the secret share object containing the give value
- Type
- object
(static) jiffClient.utils.resolve_many_secrets(deferreds, shares)
- Description:
Resolve the array of deferreds with the values of the given shares when ready, matched by index
- Source:
Parameters:
| Name | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
deferreds |
Array.<Deferred> | the deferred to resolve |
shares |
Array.<SecretShare> | the shares to resolve with |
