Indy Crypto

This is the shared crypto libirary for Hyperledger Indy components.

Hyperledger Indy provides a distributed-ledger-based foundation for self-sovereign identity.

The major artifacts of the Indy Crypto are:

• С-callable library interface
• Rust сrate
• Python wrapper

All bugs, stories, and backlog for this project are managed through Hyperledger's Jira in project IS (note that regular Indy tickets are in the INDY project instead...). Also, join us on Jira's Rocket.Chat at #indy-sdk to discuss.

Building Indy Crypto

1. Install Rust and rustup (https://www.rust-lang.org/install.html).

2. Checkout and build the library:

   git clone https://github.com/hyperledger/indy-crypto.git
   cd ./indy-crypto/libindy-crypto
   cargo build
   cd ..
   

3. Run tests

   cd libindy-crypto
   cargo test
   

Windows build dependency

System OpenSSL library is required.

• Download the prebuilt dependencies here
• Extract them into the folder C:\BIN\x64

It really doesn't matter where you put these as long as you remember where so you can set the environment variables to this path

• Point path to this directory using environment variables:
  • set INDY_CRYPTO_PREBUILT_DEPS_DIR=C:\BIN\x64
  • set OPENSSL_DIR=C:\BIN\x64
