Project goals

• Multiple identities, such as having multiple business cards.
• vCard support.
• PGP for signing and encrypting communications.
• Use generic fingerprints to ID and join IDs to start, but later distinguish between MD5, SHA256, etc.
• Communication media agnostic, eg email or SMS
• Blockchain or DHT agnostic.

Implementation Notes

• Fingerprints can have but do not require spaces or colons; match a fingerprint with spaces on one without.
• Key with newline chars must replace them with \n in order for compatibility.
• Demo key pairs included in the project for development will use weak encryption.

Using

keys

NOTE: Eventually an ssi-backend project will handle some of this.

# Generate a test private key
openssl genpkey -algorithm RSA -out key.pem -pkeyopt \
    rsa_keygen_bits:512 -pkeyopt rsa_keygen_pubexp:3 ;

# Write out the test public key
openssl rsa -in key.pem -pubout > key.pub

# This should print out all the details about the key:
openssl rsa -text -inform pem -in key.pem

# Replace newlines with escaped newlines for the json.
awk -vRS="\n" -vORS="\\\n" '1' key.pem
awk -vRS="\n" -vORS="\\\n" '1' key.pub

# Printing the fingerprint.
# Can also replace sha256 for md5 to get a shorter fingerprint.
openssl rsa -pubout -outform DER -in key.pem | openssl sha256 -c

npm

First install npm. Then:

# Project setup
npm install

# Compiles and hot-reloads for development
npm run serve

# Compiles and minifies for production
npm run build

# Run your tests
npm run test

# Lints and fixes files
npm run lint
