Capgrok - capabilities for humans to read.

Use this crate to build wallet-signable messages with capability delegations. The generated message contains two representations of the capabilities: an unambiguous machine-readable representation, and a human-readable description. Of the two representations, the latter is deterministically generated from the former.

Message formats

We currently support the following message formats:

  • EIP-4361: Sign-In With Ethereum (SIWE)

SIWE Examples

An example with:

  • the capability to present any credential
  • the capability to present credentials of type type1 (technically redundant)
  • the capability to list, get and retrieve metadata from the kepler location kepler:ens:example.eth://default/kv
  • the capability to list, get, retrieve metadata, put and delete from the kepler locations kepler:ens:example.eth://default/kv/public and kepler:ens:example.eth://default/kv/dapp-space
let credential: Namespace = "credential".parse().unwrap();
let kepler: Namespace = "kepler".parse().unwrap();

let msg = Builder::new()
    .with_default_actions(&credential, ["present"])
    .with_actions(&credential, "type:type1", ["present"])
    .with_actions(
        &kepler,
        "kepler:ens:example.eth://default/kv",
        ["list", "get", "metadata"],
    )
    .with_actions(
        &kepler,
        "kepler:ens:example.eth://default/kv/public",
        ["list", "get", "metadata", "put", "delete"],
    )
    .with_actions(
        &kepler,
        "kepler:ens:example.eth://default/kv/dapp-space",
        ["list", "get", "metadata", "put", "delete"],
    )
    .build(Message {
        domain: "example.com".parse().unwrap(),
        address: Default::default(),
        statement: None,
        uri: "did:key:example".parse().unwrap(),
        version: siwe::Version::V1,
        chain_id: 1,
        nonce: "mynonce1".into(),
        issued_at: "2022-06-21T12:00:00.000Z".parse().unwrap(),
        expiration_time: None,
        not_before: None,
        request_id: None,
        resources: vec![],
    })?;

Which produces this SIWE message:

example.com wants you to sign in with your Ethereum account:
0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000

I further authorize did:key:example to perform the following actions on my behalf: (1) credential: present for any. (2) credential: present for type:type1. (3) kepler: list, get, metadata for kepler:ens:example.eth://default/kv. (4) kepler: list, get, metadata, put, delete for kepler:ens:example.eth://default/kv/dapp-space, kepler:ens:example.eth://default/kv/public.

Sign-in only

A Message can be built without any capabilities, in which case a statement with only the "sign-in" message is generated:

let msg: Message = DelegationBuilder::new()
    .build(Message {
        domain: "example.com".parse().unwrap(),
        address: Default::default(),
        statement: None,
        uri: "did:key:example".parse().unwrap(),
        version: siwe::Version::V1,
        chain_id: 1,
        nonce: "mynonce1".into(),
        issued_at: "2022-06-21T12:00:00.000Z".parse().unwrap(),
        expiration_time: None,
        not_before: None,
        request_id: None,
        resources: vec![],
    }))?;

Which produces this SIWE message:
