EveryCRED Verifier JS :lock:

Version: 1.0.0 :bookmark_tabs:

EveryCRED Verifier JS is a custom verifier designed to verify EveryCRED credentials according to the W3C credentials standard. It is built using Angular and JavaScript technologies.

Installation

You can install the library using npm:

npm install everycred-verifier-js

Verifier Steps :clipboard:

The EveryCRED Verifier JS follows the following steps to validate credentials:

  1. Validators :white_check_mark:: Check the authenticity and integrity of the credential.

    • Authenticity checks :closed_lock_with_key:: Verify the authenticity of the credential.
    • Integrity Checks :closed_lock_with_key:: Check the integrity of the credential.
    • Issuer check :passport_control:: Validate the issuer of the credential.
    • Data Validation :abacus:: Perform validation on the credential data.
    • Checksum Match (Hash Comparison) :arrows_clockwise:: Compare hashes to ensure the integrity of the credential.
      • Blockchain Hash Fetch :link:: Fetch the blockchain hash of the credential.
      • Generate Credential Hash :1234:: Generate a hash of the credential.
      • Checksum Integrity :heavy_check_mark:: Compare the generated hash with the blockchain hash.
  2. Status Check :vertical_traffic_light:: Perform checks related to the status of the credential.

    • Credential Revocation check :no_entry_sign:: Check if the credential has been revoked.
    • Credential Expiration check :alarm_clock:: Verify if the credential has expired.

Package Verification Steps :package:

The verifier performs detailed verification steps on the package:

  1. Validator :white_check_mark:: Check the validity of the credential fields.

    • type :heavy_check_mark:: Verify if the "type" field exists and supports the "VerifiableCredential" type.
    • @context :heavy_check_mark:: Check the existence and validity of the "@context" field.
    • ID (Identifier) :heavy_check_mark:: Verify the existence of the "id" field.
    • credentialSubject :heavy_check_mark:: Check the existence of the "credentialSubject" field and validate its information.
    • Issuer :heavy_check_mark:: Verify the existence and validity of the "issuer" field.
      • Fetch Issuer profile information from the issuer link.
      • Check the validity of the "@context" field in the Issuer profile.
      • Validate the Issuer profile type against the supported types.
      • Check if the "id" matches the issuer link fetched from the credential.
      • Verify the existence of the Issuer's name and email.
      • Check if the revocation list exists.
      • Check the existence and format of the public key.
      • Fetch the Revocation List from the issuer profile.
    • ValidUntil (Optional) :heavy_check_mark:: Check the existence and format of the "validUntil" field.
    • Proof :heavy_check_mark:: Check the existence and validity of the "proof" field.
      • Validate the fields within the proof.
      • Verify the support for the current proof type ("MerkleProof2019").
    • DisplayHtml (Optional) :heavy_check_mark:: Check the existence of the "displayHtml" field.
    • IssuanceDate :heavy_check_mark:: Check the existence of the "issuanceDate" field.
  2. Checksum Match (Hash Comparison) :arrows_clockwise:: Compare hashes to ensure the integrity of the credential.

    • Note: For the first version, only "MerkleProof2019" is supported.
    • Decode "proofValue" and extract signature details.
    • Validate the existence of the "anchors" keyword

    • Check the existence of "path", "merkleRoot", "TargetHash", and "anchors".

    • Ensure that "anchors" has a value in the form of an array.
    • Separate the transaction ID and blink value.
    • Apply chain condition and call the corresponding API:
      • ethereumMainnet
      • ethereumRopsten
      • EthereumSepolia
    • Handle API responses:
      • Success: Retrieve the data and get the hash of the credentials from the transaction data (#Hash1).
      • Error: Return the error from the API or indicate transaction lookup errors or transaction not found errors.
  3. Status Check :vertical_traffic_light::

    • Revocation :no_entry_sign:: Check if the "revocationList" exists in the credential and fetch the revocation list details.
      • Validate the "@context" field in the revocation list.
      • Check the validity of the revocation list type against the supported types.
      • Verify the "id" key against the revocation link fetched from the credential.
      • Check if the issuer list exists and match the issuer link from the issuer profile.
      • Verify the existence of "revokedAssertions".
      • Find the credential ID in the revocation list and return a message if revoked.
      • If the ID matches, retrieve the revocation message and indicate that the credential is revoked with the given message.
      • If not matched, consider the credential valid and not revoked.
    • Expiration (ValidUntil) (Optional) :date:: Validate today's date with the "validUntil" date if it exists.
