cose2 0.3.2

A Rust library for CBOR Object Signing and Encryption (COSE, RFC 9052) and CBOR Web Token (CWT, RFC 8392), built on cbor2.
Documentation
//! CBOR tag prefixes for COSE structures and helpers to add/strip them.
//!
//! COSE messages may be transported tagged (e.g. `0xd2` for COSE_Sign1) or
//! untagged. These helpers add a tag prefix on encode and tolerate optional
//! prefixes on decode.
