Struct lockchain_core::MetaDomain

pub struct MetaDomain { /* fields omitted */ }

A metadomain is a simplified version of a cleartext record.

It is not encoded in special ways, it is not used in any way for secret information. All data inside a metadata file (for example, living inside the metadata folder of a vault) is public to all.

It can be used for things that need to be stored in encrypted form where the encryption key is never present. Or for simple authentication verification such as:

• User registry
• Per-user encrypted primary keys
• Usage statistics shared between clients

It implements a series of traits which means it's possible to easily interact with to store data.

Methods

impl MetaDomain

pub fn new<S>(name: S) -> Self where     S: Into<String>,

Create a new domain space struct

pub fn fill(self, new_body: HashMap<String, Payload>) -> Self

Return a MetaDomain that is filled with pre-existing data

pub fn all(&self) -> &HashMap<String, Payload>

Return a read-only reference to the entire body

pub fn name(&self) -> &str

Return the domain name for easy comparison

pub fn size(&self) -> usize

Get the number of items in this domain
