 # EVM address helper scripts
 
-Helper scripts for converting public keys to EVM addresses

+
+Helper shells scripts for converting public keys to EVM addresses.
+
+## Use case
+
+I was building a solution on AWS, delegating EVM transaction signing to a singer
+which used [secp256k1](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Secp256k1) elliptic curve key
+pairs, generated with [AWS KMS](https://aws.amazon.com/kms) for signing.
+
+Once created, the private key sits on an HSM device, over which KMS provides an
+abstraction. It never leaves the HSM unencrypted. The publilc key can be
+downloaded in PEM format.
+
+I needed to derive the account address from the PEM file.
+
+### What key?
+
+I'm not going to go into the details on KMS here. Suffice to say, if you want to
+create a KMS key, which is going to be suitable for signing and verification of
+EVM transactions on execution layer, you need to:
+
+1. Go to AWS Console
+2. Go to KMS
+3. Go to "Customer managed keys"
+4. Click "Create key"
+5. Choose key type: "Asymmetric"
+6. Choose key usage: "Sign and verify"
+7. Choose key spec: "`ECC_SECG_P256K1`"
+
+The rest is entirely up to you, depending on the intended use case. Be sure to
+set the key policy follwing the least access principle.
+
+## Solution
+
+I wrote two scripts, one representing the public key in hex format (discarding
+the EC `0x04` prefix) and another one calculating the account address from it.
+
+I didn't want to use JS, TS or Python, as these are simple operations which can
+be performed using shell script. And I wanted to use shell script for
+portability (you're going to need to install `sha3sum` package though).
+
+### Dependencies
+
+Since you need to compute the **Keccak256** sum, the script calculating an EVM
+address requires `keccak-256sum` command, which is not available out of the box
+(checked macOS and Arch Linux), which is not ideal. You're going to need to
+install `sha3sum` package, which provides `keccak-256sum`.
+
+## Usage
+
+Both scripts are simple and created with input piping in mind. They can however
+take files as input parameters.
+
+If called without parameters, both scripts are going to wait for input on
+`stdin`.
+
+**NOTE**: These are simple helper scripts performing no input validation;
+garbage in, garbage out.
+
+### Get public key hex from PEM
+
+```bash
+./pem2pubhex.sh public_key.pem
+```
+
+Alternatively you can `cat` the public key and pipe it to the script
+
+```bash
+cat public_key.pem | ./pem2pubhex.sh
+```
+
+### Get the EVM account address from public key hex
+
+```bash
+./pubhex2evm.sh public_key_hex
+```
+
+Or
+
+```bash
+cat public_key_hex | ./pubhex2evm.sh
+```
+
+### Get EVM account address directly from PEM
+
+```bash
+cat public_key.pem | ./pem2pubhex.sh | ./pubhex2evm.sh
+```
