Release Notes

Changes in Cylinder 0.3.1

  • Update README.md with new Transact repo location
  • Various dependency updates

Changes in Cylinder 0.3.0

  • Add a 'cyl' CLI command with a 'jwt generate' subcommand
  • Replace rust-crypto wtih sha2
  • Various dependency updates, including migration to Rust 2021 and clap 4

Changes in Cylinder 0.2.4

  • Derives Hash, PartialEq, and Eq for PublicKey and PrivateKey. This allows PublicKey and/or PrivateKey to be contained in structs which derive Hash, PartialEq, and Eq themselves.

Changes in Cylinder 0.2.3

  • Update the dirs dependency version to 4.
  • Update the rand dependency version to 0.8.
  • Update the secp256k1 dependency version to 0.20.
  • Update the whoami dependency version to 1.1.
  • Switch from Travis CI to GitHub Actions.

Changes in Cylinder 0.2.2

  • Stabilize the jwt and key-load features.
  • Replace the load_user_key function with 4 new key loading functions: current_user_search_path, current_user_key_name, load_key, and load_key_from_path.

Changes in Cylinder 0.2.1

  • Add the VerifierFactory trait that provides a concise API for creating signature verifiers.
  • Require the Send marker trait for all implementations of the Context trait.

Experimental Changes

  • Improve testing and documentation of the jwt module
  • Add the load_user_key function for loading a key from a file. This function is guarded by the experimental key-load feature.

Changes in Cylinder 0.2.0

  • Signer, Verifier and Context traits now require a method algorithm_name(&self) -> &str,

Experimental Changes

  • Add an experimental module to produce Cylinder-extended JSON Web Tokens. These JWT's use Cylinder's core Signer and Verifier traits to provide an avenue for applying custom signing algorithm options. The JWT's assume the public key of the Signer to be the "issuer" of the token. This module is guarded by the experimental jwt feature.

Changes in Cylinder 0.1.2

  • PublicKey now implements PartialEq and Debug
  • Only return valid new random secp256k1 private keys. This removes a rare, but possible, bug where invalid keys could be generated.

Changes in Cylinder 0.1.1

Experimental Changes

  • Add a hash implementation of the Context, Signer, and Verifier traits to be used for testing; this implementation is guarded by the experimental hash feature.

Changes in Cylinder 0.1.0

  • Initialize the library with a simple public interface that encapsulates algorithm implementation details

  • Provide a secp256k1 implementation for Context, Signer, and Verifier
