This crate provides a pure Rust implementation of EIP-4631: Sign In With Ethereum.
SIWE can be easily installed in any Rust project by including it in said project's cargo.toml
file:
siwe = "0.1"
SIWE exposes a Message
struct which implements EIP-4361.
Parsing is done via the Message
implementation of FromStr
:
let message: Message = string_message.parse()?;
Verification and Authentication is performed via EIP-191, using the address
field of the Message
as the expected signer. This returns the Ethereum public key of the signer:
let signer: Vec<u8> = message.verify_eip191(&signature)?;
The time constraints (expiry and not-before) can also be validated, at current or particular times:
if message.valid_now() { ... };
// equivalent to
if message.valid_at(&Utc::now()) { ... };
Combined verification of time constraints and authentication can be done in a single call with verify
:
let signer: Vec<u8> = message.verify(&signature)?;
Message
instances can also be serialized as their EIP-4361 string representations via the Display
implementation of Message
:
println!("{}", &message);
As well as in EIP-191 Personal-Signature pre-hash signing input form (if your Ethereum wallet does not support EIP-191 directly):
let eip191_string: String = message.eip191_string()?;
And directly as the EIP-191 Personal-Signature Hashed signing-input (made over the .eip191_string
output):
let eip191_hash: [u8; 32] = message.eip191_hash()?;
Parsing and verifying a Message
is easy:
let message: Message = str.parse()?;
let signature: [u8; 65];
if let Err(e) = message.verify(&signature) {
// message cannot be correctly authenticated at this time
}
// do application-specific things
Our Rust library for Sign-In with Ethereum has not yet undergone a formal security audit. We welcome continued feedback on the usability, architecture, and security of this implementation.
