did-key-ring v0.0.2

did-key-ring

did-key-ring is a wrapper library for managing Ethereum account groups using the MetaMask KeyringController. It extends the functionality by supporting the association and handling of Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) for each account.

Installation

To install the did-key-ring library, use the following command:

yarn add did-key-ring

Usage

Initialize KeyRing

new keyring

import { DIDKeyRingController } from "did-key-ring";
const password = "password";
const keyRing = await DIDKeyRingController.newVault(password);
const encryptedVault = keyRing.exportAccount().encryptedVault; // for restore

reusing keyring

const keyRing = await DIDKeyRingController.restoreVault(encryptedVault);
await keyRing.unlock(password);

get secret recovery phrase

const secretRecoveryPhrase = await didKeyRing.secretRecoveryPhrase();

Generating a DID

To generate a DID, First, implement the DID issuance process (issueImpl) according to the actual DID method, and then pass it to the keyRing.

ion sample

import { DIDIssuer, PublicKeyParams, Service } from "did-key-ring";
import { DID, anchor } from "@decentralized-identity/ion-tools";
import { toPrivateJwk, publicJwkFromPrivate } from "elliptic-jwk";

const issueImpl = async (
    privateKey: string,
    publicKeyParams: PublicKeyParams,
    services?: Service[]
) => {
    const privateJwk = toPrivateJwk(privateKey, "secp256k1");
    const publicKeyJwk = publicJwkFromPrivate(privateJwk);
    const publicKey = { ...publicKeyParams, publicKeyJwk };
    const did = new DID({
        content: {
            publicKeys: [publicKey],
            services: services || [],
        },
    });
    const didState = (await did.getState()) as DIDState;
    const createRequest = await did.generateRequest(0);
    const result = await anchor(createRequest);
    const { shortForm, longForm, ops } = result;
    return { did: longForm, additionalInfo: result };
};
const issuer = didKeyRing.getIssuer(issueImpl);

then you can use the methods below:

Master DID

const result = await issuer.issueMasterDID({
    id: "key-1",
    type: "JsonWebKey2020",
    purposes: ["authentication"],
});
console.log(result);
// { did: 'did:xxx:123', additionalInfo: {} }

Sub DID

const result = await issuer.issueSubDID({
    id: "key-1",
    type: "JsonWebKey2020",
    purposes: ["authentication"],
});
console.log(result);
// { did: 'did:xxx:456', additionalInfo: {} }

Getting a DID Private Key

const { did } = result
const privateKey = await didKeyRing.getPrivateKey(did);

Restore

export

    const exported = await didKeyRing.export();

restore

const { encryptedVault, issuedDIDs } = exported;
const didKeyRing = await DIDKeyRingController.restoreVault(encryptedVault);
await didKeyRing.unlock(password);
await didKeyRing.restoreDID(issuedDIDs);

Recovery

const { issuedDIDs } = exported;
const didKeyRing = await DIDKeyRingController.recover("new-password", secretRecoveryPhrase);
await didKeyRing.restoreDID(issuedDIDs);
