did:key with `jwk_jcs-pub` multicodec #536

Open Voronar opened 11 months ago

Voronar commented 11 months ago

Hello! What do you think about adding 'jwk_jcs-pub' multicodec handler as a feature flag for did-key crate?

More about the subject: https://github.com/w3c-ccg/did-method-key/issues/63.

P.S. DID document resolving is not a problem, but one's creation is a bit trickier. We can define a new method under a feature flag on DIDKey struct named generate_jwk_jcs_pub to handle this specific case.

P.P.S. If anyone interested in the subject I can submit PR with an implementation. https://github.com/spruceid/ssi/compare/main...Voronar:ssi:did_key_jwk_jcs_pub

FYI, I have a PR for the resolution of did:key with that codec. The EBSI is specifying that DID method + multicodec to identify people.

I did avoid the creation as I saw creation being rather tricky since you couldn't just base the multicodec entirely off the type of key presented. @Voronar - i'd be interested in your implementation of creating such a key!
