A pure Rust multi-provider digital signature library with support for elliptic curve digital signature algorithms, namely ECDSA (described in FIPS 186‑4) and Ed25519 (described in RFC 8032).
Signatory provides a thread-safe and object-safe API and implements providers for many popular Rust crates, including ed25519‑dalek, ring, secp256k1, and sodiumoxide.
Signatory exposes a thread-and-object-safe API for creating digital signatures which allows several signature providers to be compiled-in and available with specific providers selected at runtime.
All Signatory providers require Rust 1.36+
Signatory includes the following providers, which are each packaged into their own respective crates (except for the yubihsm provider, which is included directly in the yubihsm crate).
