revocation-manager v2.0.1

revocation-manager

This library enables revocation of Verifiable Credentials in a decentralized manner using the Tezos Blockchain. It uses the Revocation List 2020 specification as base principle to manage revocation.

Installation

This package requires NodeJS and NPM installed.

git clone https://github.com/GravityID/revocation-manager.git
cd revocation-manager
npm i

Usage

It is possible to use this package either by integrating it on a Typescript / Javascript code or by running its CLI

With code

This is the primary way of using the Revocation Manager package. It unlocks all the possibilities of the package directly embedded in an existing Typescript or Javascript code.

Originate

Deploy an instance of Revocation Manager with an initial revocation list

import { InMemorySigner } from "@taquito/signer";
import { originate } from "revocation-manager";

const key = "edsk...";
const signer = await InMemorySigner.fromSecretKey(key);
const size = 16384;

await originate(signer, size);

Revoke

Revoke a Verifiable Credential associated with a Revocation Manager. It changes the storage of the on-chain Revocation Manager.

import { InMemorySigner } from "@taquito/signer";
import { revoke } from "revocation-manager";

const key = "edsk...";
const signer = await InMemorySigner.fromSecretKey(key);
const vc = {
  "@context": [
    "https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/v1",
    "https://w3id.org/vc-revocation-list-2020/v1"
  ],
  "id": "https://example.com/credentials/23894672394",
  "type": ["VerifiableCredential"],
  "issuer": "did:example:12345",
  "issued": "2020-04-05T14:27:42Z",
  "credentialStatus": {
    "id": "https://dmv.example.gov/credentials/status/3#94567",
    "type": "RevocationList2020Status",
    "revocationListIndex": "94567",
    "revocationListCredential": "rlist://KT1U4xsumuCWY7UZRrr7hVGtqEi2MsuisUUB",
  },
  "credentialSubject": {
    "id": "did:example:6789",
    "type": "Person"
  }
}

await revoke([vc], signer);

Resolve

Build a RevocationList2020Credential from a Revocation Manager. The result can be cached and accessed while being offline.

import { InMemorySigner } from "@taquito/signer";
import { resolve } from "revocation-manager";

const id = "rlist://KT1U4xsumuCWY7UZRrr7hVGtqEi2MsuisUUB";
const vc = await resolve(id);

console.log(vc);

 */

Revocation status

Check whether a Verifiable Credential is revoked or not. This method directly reads the revocation status from the on-chain Revocation Manager.

import { InMemorySigner } from "@taquito/signer";
import { isRevoked } from "revocation-manager";

const vc = {
  "@context": [
    "https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/v1",
    "https://w3id.org/vc-revocation-list-2020/v1"
  ],
  "id": "https://example.com/credentials/23894672394",
  "type": ["VerifiableCredential"],
  "issuer": "did:example:12345",
  "issued": "2020-04-05T14:27:42Z",
  "credentialStatus": {
    "id": "https://dmv.example.gov/credentials/status/3#94567",
    "type": "RevocationList2020Status",
    "revocationListIndex": "94567",
    "revocationListCredential": "rlist://KT1U4xsumuCWY7UZRrr7hVGtqEi2MsuisUUB"
  },
  "credentialSubject": {
    "id": "did:example:6789",
    "type": "Person"
  }
}
const revoked = await isRevoked(vc);

console.log(revoked); // boolean

With CLI

A command-line interface (CLI) is also available for developers to use and does not require any software integration.
