This crate supplies everything for dealing with HTTP signatures in ActivityPub:
- Keypair generation
- Signing
- Verification
See the documentation for usage examples.
The OpenSSL crate is used for cryptographic algorithms. The http crate is used as a common denominator interface for many HTTP client and server implementations.
Beware that you must also take care of Digest: headers, using
eg. http-digest-headers.
