Const-friendly implementation of the ISO/IEC Object Identifier (OID) standard
as defined in ITU X.660, with support for BER/DER encoding/decoding as well
as heapless no_std
(i.e. embedded) environments.
Object Identifiers, a.k.a. OIDs, are an International Telecommunications Union (ITU) and ISO/IEC standard for naming any object, concept, or "thing" with a globally unambiguous persistent name.
The ITU's X.660 standard provides the OID specification. Every OID is part of a hierarchical namespace which begins with a root OID, which is either the ITU's root OID (0), the ISO's root OID (1), or the joint ISO/ITU root OID (2).
The following is an example of an OID, in this case identifying the
rsaEncryption
algorithm:
1.2.840.113549.1.1.1
For more information, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Object_identifier
This library supports parsing OIDs in const contexts, e.g.:
use const_oid::ObjectIdentifier;
pub const MY_OID: ObjectIdentifier = ObjectIdentifier::new_unwrap("1.2.840.113549.1.1.1");
The OID parser is implemented entirely in terms of const fn
and without the
use of proc macros.
Additionally, it also includes a const fn
OID serializer, and stores the OIDs
parsed from const contexts encoded using the BER/DER serialization
(sans header).
This allows ObjectIdentifier
to impl AsRef<[u8]>
which can be used to
obtain the BER/DER serialization of an OID, even one declared const
.
Additionally, it impls FromStr
and TryFrom<&[u8]>
and functions just as
well as a runtime OID library.
This crate requires Rust 1.71 at a minimum.
We may change the MSRV in the future, but it will be accompanied by a minor version bump.
