ssi.nostr

The browser.ssi subset for Nostr protocol. Requires ssi.nostr along with ssi to set permissions.

Required Permissions

['ssi', 'ssi.nostr']

Types

Preference

The preference values set by the user in about:selfsovereignindividual.

Functions

getPrefs

Get the user’s preference values. Since this is obtained passively and is not something that the user explicitly takes action on, ssi.askConsent is not called. The user controls whether or not to disclose it in the settings. Here, only values that are based on such assumptions would be returned.

generate

Generates Nostr key in the specified order. During the execution process, an internal authorization check is performed similar to browser.ssi.askConsent.

sign

Pass in the message and get back the signature by Nostr secret key. You should always read the public key without using cache just before signing/encrypting/decrypting, as the user may change their primary key without notifying you. During the execution process, an internal authorization check is performed similar to browser.ssi.askConsent.

encrypt

Pass in the plain text and get back the cipher text by Nostr secret key. You should always read the public key without using cache just before signing/encrypting/decrypting, as the user may change their primary key without notifying you. During the execution process, an internal authorization check is performed similar to browser.ssi.askConsent.

decrypt

Pass in the cipher text and get back the plain text by Nostr secret key. You should always read the public key without using cache just before signing/encrypting/decrypting, as the user may change their primary key without notifying you. During the execution process, an internal authorization check is performed similar to browser.ssi.askConsent.
