Module objects

X.509 helper objects definitions and registry

All OID objects and definitions are now stored in the oid-registry crate.

This crate is re-exporting oid-registry, so to access the OID constants the x509_parser::oid_oid_registry namespace can be used (see example below).

Example

To get the short name for a given OID:

use x509_parser::objects::*;
use x509_parser::oid_registry::*;

let oid = &OID_X509_COMMON_NAME;
let sn = oid2sn(oid, oid_registry());
assert_eq!(sn, Ok("commonName"));

Functions

oid2abbrev

Return the abbreviation (for ex. CN for Common Name), or if not found, the OID short name

oid2description

Returns the description corresponding to the OID

oid2sn

Returns the short name corresponding to the OID

oid_registry

Return a reference to the default registry of known OIDs
