go-secret-sharing is a Golang package that implements Shamir's Secret Sharing (SSS) algorithm, specifically designed to work with mnemonics and string secrets. It allows you to split a secret into n number of shares such that a specified number (t) of those shares are required to recover the original secret.
The design of this tool was inspired by Ava Labs' mnemonic-shamir-secret-sharing-cli.
- Implements Shamir's Secret Sharing algorithm for string secrets and mnemonics.
- Customize the number of shares and threshold required to reconstruct the secret.
- Provides cryptographic security for the shares generated.
- Optimized for performance and scalability.

)
func main(){
secretText := "Hello World"
noOfShares := 5
noRequiredShares := 2
// split secret
splitedStrings, sErr := goSecretSharing.SplitSecret(secretText, noOfShares, noRequiredShares)
if sErr != nil {
fmt.Println("Spliting Error===", sErr)
}
recoveryString := []string{splitedStrings[1], splitedStrings[2]}
// recover splitedStrings
recoveredSecret, rErr := goSecretSharing.RecoverSecret(recString)
if rErr != nil {
fmt.Println("Recovery Error===", rErr)
}
fmt.Println("Recovered Secret==", recoveredSecret)
