NervesKey (nerves_key v1.1.0) View Source

This is a high level interface to provisioning and using the NervesKey or any ATECC508A/608A that can be configured similarly.

Specs

clear_aux_certificates(ATECC508A.Transport.t()) :: :ok

Clear out the auxiliary certificates

This function overwrites the auxiliary certificate slots with

Link to this function

create_signing_key_pair(opts \\ [])

View Source

Specs

create_signing_key_pair(keyword()) ::
  {X509.Certificate.t(), X509.PrivateKey.t()}

Create a signing key pair

This returns a tuple that contains a new signer certificate and private key. It is compatible with the ATECC508A certificate compression.

Options:

  • :years_valid - how many years this key is valid for

Specs

Return default provisioning info for a NervesKey

This function is used for pre-programmed NervesKey devices. The serial number is a Base32-encoded version of the ATECC508A/608A's globally unique serial number. No additional care is needed to keep the number unique.

Specs

detected?(ATECC508A.Transport.t()) :: boolean()

Detect if a NervesKey is available on the transport

device_cert(transport, which \\ :primary, type \\ :nerves_key)

Specs

Read the device certificate from the slot

The device must be programmed for this to work.

get_raw_settings(ATECC508A.Transport.t(), device_type()) ::

Specs

get_settings(ATECC508A.Transport.t(), device_type()) ::
  {:ok, map()} | {:error, atom()}

Return all of the setting stored in the NervesKey as a map

Specs

has_aux_certificates?(ATECC508A.Transport.t()) :: boolean()

Specs

manufacturer_sn(ATECC508A.Transport.t(), device_type()) :: binary()

Read the manufacturer's serial number

Specs

max_settings_len(device_type()) :: integer()

Return the max length of settings

provision(transport, info, signer_cert, signer_key)

View Source

Specs

Provision a NervesKey in one step.

See the README.md for how to use this. This function locks the ATECC508A down, so you'll want to be sure what you pass it is correct.

This function does it all. It requires the signer's private key so handle that with care. Alternatively, please consider sending a PR for supporting off-device signatures so that HSMs can be used.

provision_aux_certificates(transport, signer_cert, signer_key, type \\ :nerves_key)

View Source

Specs

provision_aux_certificates(
  ATECC508A.Transport.t(),
  X509.Certificate.t(),
  X509.PrivateKey.t(),
  device_type()
) :: :ok

Provision the auxiliary device/signer certificates on a NervesKey.

This function creates and saves the auxiliary certificates. These are only needed if the ones written by provision/4 are not usable. They are not used unless explicitly requested. See the README.md for details.

You may call this function multiple times after the ATECC508A has been provisioned.

Specs

provisioned?(ATECC508A.Transport.t()) :: boolean()

Check whether the NervesKey has been provisioned

Link to this function

put_raw_settings(transport, raw_settings, device_type)

View Source

Specs

put_raw_settings(ATECC508A.Transport.t(), binary(), device_type()) :: :ok

Store raw settings on the Nerves Key

This overwrites all of the settings and should be used with care since there's no protection against race conditions with other users of this API.

Link to this function

put_settings(transport, settings, device_type \\ :nerves_key)

View Source

Specs

put_settings(ATECC508A.Transport.t(), map(), device_type()) :: :ok

Store settings on the NervesKey

This overwrites all of the settings that are currently on the key and should be used with care since there's no protection against a race condition with other NervesKey users.

Specs

sign_digest(ATECC508A.Transport.t(), binary()) ::
  {:ok, binary()} | {:error, atom()}

Sign a SHA256 digest

Link to this function

ssl_opts(transport, which \\ :primary, type \\ :nerves_key)

View Source

Specs

Return ssl_opts for using the NervesKey

Pass an engine and optionally which certificate that you'd like to use.
