EdDSA RDFC 2022 Data Integrity Cryptosuite _(@digitalcredentials/eddsa-rdfc-2022-cryptosuite)_


> EdDSA 2022 Data Integrity Cryptosuite for use with jsonld-signatures.

NOTE: this is a fork of @digitalbazaar/eddsa-rdfc-2022-cryptosuite to add support for react native. The only fundamental change is to replace the @digitalbazaar dependencies with @digitalcredential forks that use react native compatible cryptographic libraries when used in react native.

Usage

The following code snippet provides a complete example of digitally signing
a verifiable credential using this library:

`javascript
import * as Ed25519Multikey from '@digitalcredentials/ed25519-multikey';
import {DataIntegrityProof} from '@digitalcredentials/data-integrity';
import {cryptosuite as eddsaRdfc2022CryptoSuite} from
'@digitalcredentials/eddsa-rdfc-2022-cryptosuite';
import jsigs from '@digitalcredentials/jsonld-signatures';
const {purposes: {AssertionProofPurpose}} = jsigs;


// create the unsigned credential
const unsignedCredential = {
'@context': [
'https://www.w3.org/2018/credentials/v1',
{
AlumniCredential: 'https://schema.org#AlumniCredential',
alumniOf: 'https://schema.org#alumniOf'
}
],
id: 'http://example.edu/credentials/1872',
type: [ 'VerifiableCredential', 'AlumniCredential' ],
issuer: 'https://example.edu/issuers/565049',
issuanceDate: '2010-01-01T19:23:24Z',
credentialSubject: {
id: 'https://example.edu/students/alice',
alumniOf: 'Example University'
}
};

// create the keypair to use when signing
const controller = 'https://example.edu/issuers/565049';
const keyPair = await Ed25519Multikey.from({
'@context': 'https://w3id.org/security/multikey/v1',
type: 'Multikey',
controller,
id: controller + '#z6MkwXG2WjeQnNxSoynSGYU8V9j3QzP3JSqhdmkHc6SaVWoT',
publicKeyMultibase: 'z6MkwXG2WjeQnNxSoynSGYU8V9j3QzP3JSqhdmkHc6SaVWoT',
secretKeyMultibase: 'zrv3rbPamVDGvrm7LkYPLWYJ35P9audujKKsWn3x29EUiGwwhdZQd' +
'1iHhrsmZidtVALBQmhX3j9E5Fvx6Kr29DPt6LH'
});

// export public key and add to document loader
const publicKey = await keyPair.export({publicKey: true, includeContext: true});
addDocumentToLoader({url: publicKey.id, document: publicKey});

// create key's controller document
const controllerDoc = {
'@context': [
'https://www.w3.org/ns/did/v1',
'https://w3id.org/security/multikey/v1'
],
id: controller,
assertionMethod: [publicKey]
};
addDocumentToLoader({url: controllerDoc.id, document: controllerDoc});

// create suite
const suite = new DataIntegrityProof({
signer: keyPair.signer(), cryptosuite: eddsaRdfc2022CryptoSuite
});

// create signed credential
const signedCredential = await jsigs.sign(unsignedCredential, {
suite,
purpose: new AssertionProofPurpose(),
documentLoader
});

// results in the following signed VC
