Better management for StatusEntry an related errors #39

Open ugoamanoh opened 4 years ago

ugoamanoh commented 4 years ago

accept and use an optional StatusEntry param for checkStatus() to deduplicate parsing of credentials and to support verification of credentials that don't necessarily embed a status entry.

rethink exceptional cases to accommodate credentials that don't embed status, and create more informative errors for misconfigured status methods or malformed entries.

create and use a CredentialStatus implementation that is only used to signal a credential that doesn't declare a status checking method.

Implementation Notes

return DIDDocument in JWTTools().verify()
checkStatus method to allow an optional StatusEntry parameter
if StatusEntry is not provided then parse from credential
create new CredentialStatus impl call StatusError which can handle error messages
if no StatusEntry is supplied or in the credential return StatusError retun an error
