Introduction

This project uses the Hyperledger Identus Typescript SDK to build an offline first self sovereign identity agent.

This project bridges the gap Identity and Web2/3 projects in Cardano have, you no longer need to deploy any infrastructure to run Identity solutions in Cardano blockchain.

Offline first means:

• Almost Zero infrastructure
• Data is stored locally and password protected, you own it
• Issue your own dids with no middle party using any CIP-30 compatible Wallet (Lace, CCVault, etc)
• Identity (DIDS) you own can be published on chain, making verification fully decentralised as u no longer need to trust a middle party to verify signatures

Running locally

First, install the package with

yarn

Then just build it with

yarn dev

and Just open localhost:3000

Storage & Database access

This tool uses RIDB and Identus store to provide a secure and reliable storage wrapper for your needs.

Identus storage can be extended to include and integrate new models and functionality to adapt to your business requirements

Advanced configuration

There is 2 ways of using this product. By setting environment variables anyone using the website you deploy will be using the same mediator, resolver and blockfrost api key.

WHY? Makes it easier to deploy a semi-managed service. Website will automatically configure some specific env vars.

Can I opt out? Yes, defining the environment variables is totally optional, if you don't define them each user entering your website will have to configure their own. They can do by entering /app/settings/

Variables

When these environment variables are set, the corresponding settings will be managed server-side and cannot be modified by users in the UI

Blockfrost API Key for Cardano blockchain interactions If set, users cannot modify this setting in the Settings page

BLOCKFROST_API_KEY=your_blockfrost_api_key_here

Mediator DID for agent connections If set, users cannot modify this setting in the Settings page

MEDIATOR_DID_URL=did:peer:example_mediator_did

PRISM DID Resolver URL for resolving PRISM DIDs If set, users cannot modify this setting in the Settings page

PRISM_RESOLVER_URL=https://your-prism-resolver-url.com

This url must be a prism did universal resolver endpoint, or any endpoint that can resolve a did http://anything/did/ <- we would pass the did to query in the url directly but your domain must go without, just http://anything/did/
