Struct Verifier

pub struct Verifier {
    voa_location: VoaLocation,
    canonicalized: PathBuf,
}

A Verifier points to a signature verifier in the file system.

It consists of the VoaLocation via which the verifier was obtained, and a canonicalized path to the actual verifier file.

Depending on the verifier Technology, a Verifier instance may represent, e.g.:

• an individual, standalone signature verifier,
• an individual verifier that acts as a trust anchor,
• a certificate complete with its trust chain,
• a set of individual verifiers in one shared data structure.

Fields

voa_location: VoaLocation

The logical VOA location via which the verifier was found

canonicalized: PathBuf

Canonicalized path of the verifier file

Implementations

impl Verifier

pub(crate) fn new(voa_location: VoaLocation, canonicalized: PathBuf) -> Self

Creates a new Verifier.

Note

Callers of this constructor must ensure that canonicalized contains a fully canonicalized filename, that the file exists, and that the naming and any potential symlinks involved conform to the constraints defined in the VOA specification.

pub fn voa_location(&self) -> &VoaLocation

The VoaLocation that this verifier file was found through

pub fn canonicalized(&self) -> &Path

Returns a reference to the canonicalized path for the file that this Verifier represents.

pub(crate) fn filename(&self) -> Option<&OsStr>

Returns the optional file name part of the canonicalized path of this Verifier.

pub fn open(&self) -> Result<File, Error>

Opens the file this Verifier represents as a File in read-only mode.

Errors

Returns an error if the file (see Verifier::canonicalized) cannot be opened for reading.
