IOTA Identity - Account
The Account
is an interface for creating and managing identities on the IOTA Tangle, handling publishing and secure storage automatically. It provides convenience functions for:
- Creating and publishing a new IOTA DID.
- Updating DID Document contents:
- Verification Methods.
- Verification Relationships.
- Services.
- Managing private cryptographic keys securely.
- Signing credentials.
- Encrypting messages.
Account Creation
Creating an Account
is done through the AccountBuilder
.
let account: Account = Account::builder()
.create_identity(IdentitySetup::default())
.await?;
Update Operations
Updating a DID Document can be performed through the update_identity
function on the Account
. For example, adding a new verification method to the DID Document:
account
.update_identity()
.create_method()
.content(MethodContent::GenerateEd25519)
.fragment("my-next-key")
.apply()
.await?;
The above code generates a new Ed25519 keypair, writes it to Storage
, embeds it in a new verification method, and publishes the updated DID Document to the Tangle.
See the IdentityUpdater
for a list of provided update operations.
