# doip.js
![](static/doip.png)
![](doip.png)
doip.js allows websites and Node.js projects to verify decentralized online
identities based on OpenPGP.
Source code available at [codeberg.org](https://codeberg.org/keyoxide/doipjs).
Documentation available at [js.doip.rocks](https://js.doip.rocks).
## Features
- Verify online identities using decentralized technology
- Based on [OpenPGP](https://www.openpgp.org), a widely-used cryptographic standard
- Regex-based service provider detection
- [Mocha](https://mochajs.org) tests
## Installation (node)
Install using **yarn** or **npm**:
```bash
yarn add doipjs
# or
npm install --save doipjs
```
Import the `doip` module in your code:
```javascript
const doip = require('./doipjs')
```
## Installation (browser)
Include the following HTML snippet (requires [openpgp.js](https://openpgpjs.org/)):
```html
<script src="/static/openpgp.min.js"></script>
<script src="/static/doip.min.js"></script>
```
## Quickstart
Run the following javascript:
```javascript
const verifyIdentity = async (url, fp) => {
const claim = new doip.Claim(url, fp)
claim.match()
await claim.verify()
console.log(claim.result)
}
verifyIdentity('dns:doip.rocks', '9f0048ac0b23301e1f77e994909f6bd6f80f485d')
```
This snippet works and will verify the [doip.rocks](https://doip.rocks) domain as
bidirectionally linked to Yarmo's cryptographic key.
## About Keyoxide
[Keyoxide](https://keyoxide.org/), made by Yarmo Mackenbach, is a modern, secure
and privacy-friendly platform to establish decentralized online identities using
a novel concept know as [DOIP](doip.md). In an effort to make this technology
accessible for other projects and stimulate the emergence of both complementary
and competing projects, this project-agnostic library is
[published on codeberg.org](https://codeberg.org/keyoxide/doipjs) and open
sourced under the
[Apache-2.0](https://codeberg.org/keyoxide/doipjs/src/branch/main/LICENSE)
license.
## Community
There's a [Keyoxide Matrix room](https://matrix.to/#/#keyoxide:matrix.org) where
we discuss everything DOIP and Keyoxide.
## Donate

project is a step in the right direction for the internet.
## Funding
This library was realized with funding from
[NLnet](https://nlnet.nl/project/Keyoxide/).
