Add wallet signing and public key retrieval (#8)

Provides getPublicKey and getSigningKeys handlers to enable web applications to request cryptographic signatures and retrieve wallet public keys:

- Add getPublicKey action to retrieve user's public key from encrypted storage
- Add getSigningKeys action to enable client-side message signing
- Extend content.js to handle getPublicKey and sign message types
- Add hexToBytes/bytesToHex conversion utilities

Enables ResCanvas secure rooms to cryptographically sign strokes while
maintaining key security in extension storage. Also provides general-purpose
wallet integration for any dApp (authentication, message signing, identity).

Keys remain encrypted in extension while signing is delegated to page context using
web app's nacl library for security isolation.

About

ResVault is a Chrome extension that serves as a comprehensive wallet for ResilientDB. ResilientDB is a High Throughput Yielding Permissioned Blockchain Fabric founded by ExpoLab at UC Davis in 2018. ResilientDB advocates a system-centric design by adopting a multi-threaded architecture that encompasses deep pipelines. Further, ResilientDB separates the ordering of client transactions from their execution, which allows it to process messages out-of-order.

Features

Core Wallet Functionality

  • Create Account - Generate new wallet accounts with secure key management
  • Delete Account - Remove accounts with proper cleanup
  • Login/Logout - Secure authentication system
  • Submit Transactions - Send transactions to ResilientDB network
  • Transaction Logging - Complete transaction history and audit trail
  • User Profiles - Manage multiple user identities
  • Multi-account Support - Handle multiple wallet accounts simultaneously

Smart Contract Integration (v1.2.0)

  • Contract Deployment - Deploy Solidity smart contracts directly from the wallet

Smart Contract Usage

Deploying Contracts

  1. Navigate to the Contract tab in ResVault
  2. Enter your ResilientDB server URL:
    • Mainnet: Use the production ResilientDB endpoint
    • Local Development: Use your local server (e.g., http://localhost:8400)
    • Custom Server: Use any ResilientDB instance (e.g., http://your-server:8400)
  3. Paste your Solidity contract code
  4. Provide constructor arguments if needed
  5. Click Deploy - the contract will be deployed using your wallet address
