@kineticcafe/app-identity 2.0.0: AppIdentity for JavaScript

• code :: https://github.com/KineticCafe/app-identity/tree/main/ts/
• issues :: https://github.com/KineticCafe/app-identity/issues

Description

@kineticcafe/app-identity is the runtime-agnostic Typescript implementation of the Kinetic Commerce application identity proof algorithm as described in its spec.

This package cannot be used without a runtime adapter. See @kineticcafe/app-identity-node for the Node.js adapter. If a different runtime is required, see adapter.ts for the required functions.

Synopsis

import * as AppIdentity from '@kineticcafe/app-identity'
import { myRuntime } from './runtime'

// Required at program start.
AppIdentity.setRuntimeAdapter(myRuntime)

const app = { id, secret, version: 2 }
const proof = AppIdentity.generateProof(app)
AppIdentity.verifyProof(proof, app)

Installation

@kineticcafe/app-identity should be added to your list of dependencies in package.json.

$ npm add @kineticcafe/app-identity@^2.0

We discourage the use of AppIdentity for JavaScript in a browser because the App Identity algorithm requires the use of shared secrets for validation.

Semantic Versioning

AppIdentity uses a Semantic Versioning scheme with one significant change:

• When PATCH is zero (0), it will be omitted from version references.

Additionally, the major version will generally be reserved for specification revisions.
