README
x509-certificate
x509-certificate is a library crate for interfacing with X.509 certificates.
It supports the following:
- Parsing certificates from BER, DER, and PEM.
- Serializing certificates to BER, DER, and PEM.
- Defining common algorithm identifiers.
- Generating new certificates.
- Verifying signatures on certificates.
- And more.
This crate has not undergone a security audit. It does not
employ many protections for malformed data when parsing certificates.
Use at your own risk. See additional notes in src/lib.rs.
Developing
The root of the repository is a Cargo workspace and has a lot of members.
The dependency tree for the entire repo is massive and cargo build likely
will fail due to Python dependency weirdness.
For best results, cd x509-certificate and run commands there. Or
cargo build -p x509-certificate, cargo test -p x509-certificate, etc.
