did-resolver

peaq's DID Resolver package provides methods to resolve a Decentralized Identifier (DID) from the peaq blockchain based on a specified node URL, DID name, and address. The package can retrieve various fields of a DID document, such as verifications, services, authentications, and signatures, that are stored on the blockchain.

Installation

• Initialize npm package: npm init -y
• Install peaq's did-resolver: npm install @peaq-network/did-resolver

Usage

import { peaqDidResolver } from '@peaq-network/did-resolver';

// Ensure that the DID associated with the specified 'name' has been previously created 
// at the Base URL endpoint by the entity (wallet) that owns the 'address'.
// The 'address' should correspond to the wallet that created and controls the DID at the given Base URL.

const BASE_URL = 'https://quicknode1.peaq.xyz';
const name = "example_name";
const address = "0x9Eeab1aCcb1A701aEfAB00F3b8a275a39646641C";


const main = async () => {
    const resolver = new peaqDidResolver();
    
    // Resolve the entire DID
    const result1 = await resolver.resolve({
      baseUrl: BASE_URL,
      name: name,
      address: address
    });
    console.log(result1);

    // Resolve the DID document
    const result2 = await resolver.resolve_document({
      baseUrl: BASE_URL,
      name: name,
      address: address
    });
    console.log(result2);

    // Resolve the services field of the DID
    const result3 = await resolver.resolve_services({
      baseUrl: BASE_URL,
      name: name,
      address: address
    });
    console.log(result3);

    // Resolve the verifications field of the DID
    const result4 = await resolver.resolve_verifications({
      baseUrl: BASE_URL,
      name: name,
      address: address
    });
    console.log(result4);

    // Resolve the authentications field of the DID
    const result5 = await resolver.resolve_authentications({
      baseUrl: BASE_URL,
      name: name,
      address: address
    });
    console.log(result5);

    // Resolve the signature field of the DID
    const result6 = await resolver.resolve_signature({
      baseUrl: BASE_URL,
      name: name,
      address: address
    });
    console.log(result6);
};

main();
