Readme
Cryptographic key pair data model in Javascript/Typescript, for Node.js, browsers, and React Native. Useful for Verifiable Credentials, DIDs (Decentralized Identifiers), and other uses of Data Integrity.
Extracted from Digital Bazaar's crypto-ld
library, and converted to Typescript.
This is an abstract key pair data model, meant to be used in individual subclass key pair implementations, such as:
For digital signatures using the
linked-data-integrity
library,
signing of Verifiable Credentials using vc
library,
authorization capabilities, and DIDAuth operations:
For key agreement protocols for encryption operations:
minimal-cipher
library.As with most security- and cryptography-related tools, the overall security of your system will largely depend on your design decisions.
To install via NPM:
npm install @digitalcredentials/keypair
To install locally (for development):
git clone https://github.com/digitalcredentials/keypair.git
cd keypair
npm install
This library is meant to be used only by implementers of new cryptographic key suite libraries.
When adding support for a new suite type subclass of keypair
, developers
should do the following:
example-key-pair
.export()
and fingerprint()
).crypto-suite-manager
README.md.PRs accepted.
If editing the Readme, please conform to the standard-readme specification.
