pub struct Id { /* private fields */ }
Expand description

Primitive to represent and store the identity of a user. Used by a user to store their own identity. Uses asymmetric encryption as the basis for authentication.

Implementations

Generate a new identity

Errors

Returns PathBuf to the private key on the filesystem

Returns PathBuf to the public key on the filesystem

Save the current identity on the filesystem Saves the public key and the private key in PEM format

Load an identity from the default location on the filesystem Reads the private key from the default location

Try to load the identity from the default location on the filesystem or create a new identity. If a new identity is created, it is stored in the default location

Convert private key to a base64 encoded string Encodes private key as DER and then encodes DER into base64
