Web::ID::Certificate - an x509 certificate
my $cert = Web::ID::Certificate->new(pem => $pem_encoded_x509); foreach (@{ $cert->subject_alt_names }) { say "SAN: ", $_->type, " = ", $_->value; }
new
Standard Moose-style constructor.
pem
A PEM-encoded string for the certificate.
This is usually the only attribute you want to pass to the constructor. Allow the others to be built automatically.
public_key
A Web::ID::RSAKey object.
fingerprint
A string identifier for the certificate. It is the lower-cased hexadecimal SHA1 hash of the DER-encoded certificate.
This is not used in WebID authentication, but may be used as an identifier for the certificate if you need to keep it in a cache.
not_before
DateTime object indicating when the certificate started (or will start) to be valid.
not_after
DateTime object indicating when the certificate will cease (or has ceased) to be valid.
subject_alt_names
An arrayref containing a list of subject alt names (Web::ID::SAN objects) associated with the certificate. These are sorted in the order they'll be tried for WebID authentication.
san_factory
A coderef used for building Web::ID::SAN objects. It's very unlikely you need to play with this - the default is probably OK. But changing this is "supported" (in so much as any of this is supported).
The coderef is passed a hash (not hashref) along the lines of:
( type => 'uniformResourceIdentifier', value => 'http://example.com/id/alice', )
timely
Checks not_before and not_after against the current system time to indicate whether the certifixate is temporally valid. Returns a boolean.
You can optionally pass it a DateTime object to use instead of the current system time.
exponent
Delegated to the public_key attribute.
modulus

Web::ID, Web::ID::SAN, Web::ID::RSAKey.
Web::ID::Certificate::Generator - augments this class to add the ability to generate new WebID certificates.
Crypt::X509 provides a pure Perl X.509 certificate parser, and is used internally by this module.
