sidetree-svc-go

This library implements components of a service conforming to the Sidetree Protocol.

Below are the main components:

Batch Writer

The batch writer batches multiple document operations(create, update, delete, recover) in a single batch file. Batch files are stored in a distributed content-addressable storage (DCAS or CAS). A reference to the operation batch is then anchored on a blockchain as a Sidetree transaction.

Operation Processor

All document processing is deferred to resolution time. Resolution of the given ID to its document is done by iterating over all operations in blockchain-time order (starts with ‘create’). Each operation is checked for validity before applying a JSON patch to document.

Document Handler

The document handler performs document operation processing and document resolution. It supports both DID documents and generic documents.

Operation Processing

Upon successful validation against a configured validator, an operation will be added to the batch.

Resolution

Document resolution is based on ID or initial state values.

• DID: The latest document is returned if found.

• Long Form DID: Can be requested in the following format: did:METHOD::Base64url(JCS({suffix-data, delta}))
