Keycheck

Checks your repository for Ethereum private keys in the hexadecimal format. Meant to be used in a pre-commit hook.

Installation

cargo install keycheck

Usage

Manual

Check the current folder and all subfolders for private keys. Respects your .gitignore
Upon finding a private key, outputs the file and line number, but not the key itself. Exit code 0 for no keys, 1 for key(s) found.

keycheck

In a git pre-commit hook

brew install lefthook

echo 'pre-commit:
  commands:
    keycheck:
      run: keycheck' > lefthook.yml
      
lefthook install

Ignoring files

keycheck respects a .keycheckignore file. Format is the same as .gitignore, so globs, comments etc. work as expected.

Performance

on OpenZeppelin/openzeppelin-contracts repo:

$ hyperfine keycheck -i --warmup 5
Benchmark 1: keycheck
  Time (mean ± σ):      13.1 ms ±   0.5 ms    [User: 3.6 ms, System: 15.9 ms]
  Range (min … max):    12.4 ms …  15.2 ms    183 runs

priv-key-precommit

hyperfine priv-key-precommit --warmup 5
Benchmark 1: priv-key-precommit
Time (mean ± σ):      1.651 s ±  0.047 s    [User: 1.625 s, System: 0.217 s]
Range (min … max):    1.599 s …  1.746 s    10 runs

keycheck is 126x times faster, or a 99.2% performance improvement.
