rust-tsp

Prototype Rust SDK for the Trust Spanning Protocol

Status

This project is in its initial state. Development is ongoing and interfaces or structure of the repository are likely to change. Nothing in this repository at this moment represents a "final design" or to be overriding the Trust Spanning Protocol specification, or indicating a future direction of the Trust Spanning Protocol.

In short, it is not the reference implementation yet.

How to build this project

You will need to install the most recent Rust compiler, by following the these instructions.

Then, you can use these commands to check out and test the repository:

git clone https://github.com/openwallet-foundation-labs/tsp.git
cd rust-tsp
cargo test

To build the documentation, run:

cargo doc --workspace --no-deps

Apart from the library, there are a few example executables. The CLI is most usefull, see below how to install and use the CLI.

Organization of the project folder

At this point in time, this repository is organized using Cargo workspaces. The workspace contains only two crates, the TSP crate and an examples crate.

The code is organizes is various directories:

  • examples/ contains example programs
  • tsp/ contains the TSP library, the source code is divided in the following modules / folders:
    • cesr/ provides minimalist CESR encoding/decoding support that is sufficient for generating and parsing TSP messages; to keep complexity to a minimum, we explicitly do not provide a full CESR decoder/encoder.
    • crypto/ contains the cryptographic core:
      • generating non-confidential messages signed using Ed25519
      • generating confidential messages encrypted using HPKE-Auth; using DHKEM(X25519, HKDF-SHA256) as asymmetric primitives and ChaCha20/Poly1305 as underlying AEAD encrypting scheme, and signed using Ed25519 to achieve non-repudiation (more precisely "strong receiver-unforgeability under chosen ciphertext" or RUF-CTXT or Insider-Auth.
    • definitions/ defines several common data structures, traits and error types that are used throughout the project.
    • transport/ code (built using tokio foundations) for actually sending and receiving data over a transport layer.
    • vid/ contains code for handling verified identifiers and identities. Currently only an extended form of did:web is supported.

Documentation

The development documentation is published at https://docs.tsp-test.org/tsp/

Documentation on how to use our example projects (CLI / web interface) can be found on https://book.tsp-test.org/

In the future, documentation will be available at docs.rs.

Test CLI

The examples crate contains a test CLI interface for this library.

Install it by running the following command in the project root:

cargo install --path examples/ --bin tsp

To create an identity:

tsp create bob

To verify a VID:

tsp verify did:web:tsp-test.org:user:alice

To listen for - and receive messages:

tsp receive --one did:web:tsp-test.org:user:bob

To send a message:

echo "Hello World!" | tsp send -s did:web:tsp-test.org:user:alice -r did:web:tsp-test.org:user:bob

See https://book.tsp-test.org/ for the full documentation.
