Module jws

JSON Web Signatures (JWS)

The encoding and decoding APIs are strongly informed by the requirements of the higher level functionality offered by the IOTA Identity library. Hence these APIs may possibly not be immediately recognizable from a standard JWT/JWS perspective. See identity_jose/examples/jws_encoding_decoding.rs for a complete example of how to encode and then decode a JWS.

Structs

• CompactJwsEncoder
  A JWS encoder supporting the Compact JWS serialization format.
• DecodedJws
  A cryptographically verified decoded token from a JWS.
• Decoder
  The Decoder is responsible for decoding a JWS into one or more JwsValidationItems.
• FlattenedJwsEncoder
  An encoder supporting the Flattened JWS JSON Serialiazion format.
• GeneralJwsEncoder
  An encoder for the General JWS JSON Serialization format.
• JwsHeader
  JSON Web Signature JOSE Header.
• JwsValidationItem
  A partially decoded JWS containing claims, and the decoded verification data for its corresponding signature (headers, signing input and signature). This data can be cryptographically verified using a JwsVerifier. See Self::verify.
• JwsValidationIter
  An iterator over the JwsValidationItems corresponding to the signatures in a JWS encoded with the general JWS JSON serialization format.
• JwsVerifierFn
  Simple wrapper around a closure capable of verifying a JWS signature. This wrapper implements JwsVerifier.
• Recipient
  The recipient of a JWS.
• VerificationInput
  Input a JwsVerifier verifies.

Enums

• CharSet
  The requirements towards the character set when encoding a JWS.
• CompactJwsEncodingOptions
  Options determining whether the payload is detached and if not which additional requirements the payload must satisfy.
• JwsAlgorithm
  Supported algorithms for the JSON Web Signatures alg claim.
• JwsFormat
  The serialization format used for the JWS.
• SignatureVerificationErrorKind
  The cause of a failed jws signature verification.

Traits

• JwsVerifier
  Trait for cryptographically verifying a JWS signature.

Type Aliases

• RecipientProcessingEncoder
  A General JWS Encoder that is currently processing the latest Recipient.
• SignatureVerificationError
  Error type for a failed jws signature verification. See JwsVerifier.
