python-keepkey
Client side implementation for KeepKey-compatible Bitcoin hardware wallets.
This is a modified version of python-trezor. The changes made were to support KeepKey's protocol, as well as the additional feature set of KeepKey. For example, by default, device_recovery command invokes KeepKey's style of device recovery using the Recovery Cipher.
See http://www.keepkey.com for more information.
Example
also found in helloworld.py
#!/usr/bin/env python
from keepkeylib.client import KeepKeyClient
from keepkeylib.transport_hid import HidTransport
def main():
# List all connected KeepKeys on USB
devices = HidTransport.enumerate()
# Check whether we found any
if len(devices) == 0:
print('No KeepKey found')
return
# Use first connected device
transport = HidTransport(devices[0])
# Creates object for manipulating KeepKey
client = KeepKeyClient(transport)
# Print out KeepKey's features and settings
print(client.features)
# Get the first address of first BIP44 account
# (should be the same address as shown in KeepKey wallet Chrome extension)
bip32_path = client.expand_path("44'/0'/0'/0/0")
address = client.get_address('Bitcoin', bip32_path)
print('Bitcoin address:', address)
client.close()
if __name__ == '__main__':
main()

7 | 8 | 9 |
4 | 5 | 6 |
