contact-tracing 0.1.0

Implementation of the apple/google contact tracing protocol
Documentation

contact-tracing

This crate implements the apple/google proximity contact tracing.

The version of this implementation is the initial reference spec from April 2020.

Broadcast Example

To broadcast one needs a tracing key and the rolling proximity identifier (RPI) for a given time. The RPI is normally created from the daily tracing key but there is a shortcut to derive it automatically:

use contact_tracing::{TracingKey, DailyTracingKey, Rpi};

let tkey = TracingKey::unique();
let rpi = Rpi::for_now(&tkey);

Infection Checking Example

Infection checking uses the daily tracing keys directly:

use contact_tracing::{TracingKey, DailyTracingKey, Rpi};

// normally these would come from the internet somewhere
let tkey = TracingKey::unique();
let dtkey = DailyTracingKey::for_today(&tkey);

for (tin, rpi) in dtkey.iter_rpis().enumerate() {
    // check your database of contacts against the TIN and RPIs generated
    // for each daily tracing key downloaded.  The TIN should be within
    // some reasonable window of the timestamp you captured.
}
