AriesVCX

• aries-vcx is Rust implementation of Aries protocols with mediator agency integration.
• libvcx is provides C-bindings and memory management on top AriesVCX, so you can harness it on essentially any platform. Officially we support:
  • Java (+Android)
  • iOS,
  • NodeJS
• Overview of implemented Aries protocols
• AriesVCX requires mediator agency. One such implementation is NodeVCX Agency. For early development and experimentation, you can use agency we have deployed at https://ariesvcx.agency.staging.absa.id/agency (instance of NodeVCX Agency)

Versioning

• The project currently does not follow semantic versioning. Fow now we are releasing versions 0.x.x.
• Although the API is mostly stable, breaking changes still occur in our releases. See our releases page as our changelog.
• See our roadmap.

Get started

The best way to get your hands on.

• Simple NodeJS Agent
• Android demo (3rd party demo)
• iOS demo (3rd party demo)
• iOS skeleton project (3rd party demo)

::Important::

However before you'll be able to pick one of these demos and run them locally, you need to build binary library which all these demos depends on.

• Building AriesVCX on OSX, Linux

Project architecture

The architecture is evolving - you can compare the diagram below with diagram under roadmap.

Artifacts

Number of artifacts are built for every CI run (unless it's coming from a forked repository due to limitations of Github Actions). Artifacts tied with particular release can be found on release page.

Artifacts produced:

• Alpine based docker image with precompiled libvcx
• iOS wrapper
• Android wrapper
• NodeJS wrapper

When looking for artifacts for a particular CI run:

• NodeJS wrappers are published on npmjs
• Docker images are in Github Packages
• Mobile artifacts are attached to CI runs (click on particular CI run to see the artifacts)
